That is just dreadful. For Italy to get a man sent off and then to gift them a goal so soon is just criminal.

terrible, embarrassing defending. McShane and Keogh equally at fault
any one got a link....shocking stuff
I can't fathom how neither of them saw Grosso just stroll in behind them. You'd go mental if you saw that happen down the park.Quote:

ok - italy a man down. We're pumping long balls over the top for our strikers and wingers to chase. We should be retaining the ball, make the italians run about and hopefully wear them out a little bit - ball retention, ball retention, ball retention.
Keogh off. Folan on.
Paul mcShane is the most incompetent footballer I have seen in years. I know we have no depth, but seriously. Whatever raw talent he may have shown is by now very clear to have been hot air. He's a complete liability. Sigh.
I sense that bringin on Folan may not change this!!Quote:

Wow something positive from Trap looks like a 4-3-1-2 with Keane as the 1.Quote:

Italians already happy to sit back on the 1-0.
McShane couldn't cross his legs
Italians have done their homework. They are happy to let him have the ball and pick up others.Quote:

My God - he lost his man again - why is he still on!
they keep targeting him Trap make the change ohh what a shot
almost 94 again
Where Pagliuca when you need him?

I wasn't the only one thinking it so :)
Foley is just what we need a RB that can defend and cross.Quote:

This is a much better performance from Ireland and what do we have to show for it? 1-0 down to 10 men :( McShane *has* to go, we need new blood from anywhere. Any 'aul journeyman RB from the Championship is preferable to that lump.
McShane off NOW!!!
Folan's doing ok and Hunt looks busy.
Jaysus - on his arse now!
