    Oh for god sake. Its only Montenegro, they are not going to take 6 points from us in this campaign, get real. They are no better whatsoever than Bosnia or FYR Macedonia and neither of them would take 6 points off of us in a group either

    I agree. Im hoping for a crunching tackle in the first two minutes from one of them to set the tone for the game ala Roy keane back in the day. These are a new team and i think we have to try and physicaly bully them when possible. I think the match has a draw written all over it. Think it will be 0-0, very like our away game in Albania some 5 years ago

    If Stephen Reid wasn't fit for tonights game and Liam Miller replaced him, how many people here would expect us to get a result, let alone win?

    I know I for one would change my prediction from a 2-0 win to a 2-1 defeat. A couple of years back I would have defended Miller and said to give him a decent chance, but after consistently poor and lifeless performances he shouldn't be getting near the matchday squad. We'd be overrun if he played.

    The problem with Miller is he just does nothing. The word limited footballer was never more fitting for Liam Miller. He can pass the ball, but really does nothing with it, like a worse version of Tiago Mendes, a much worse version.

    With the hot temperature factor, I wouldn't be so apprehensive if Miller comes on a sub.

    I hope KK's mask doesn't melt into his face.

    i think we'll go one up from our first or second corner with a ricardo duninho header,
    then stephen reid will come off injured early in the second half, replaced by miller, unbalancing the team, they score in the last ten minutes...

    1-1
    and that wont be that bad a result but dissapointing none the less.

    Yeah would definately change my prediction and be running to Paddy Power to cancel the bet!

    we'll need to score two or three to win this game, because they will score at least one.

    I'm expecting a draw to be honest. It seems to be that a few people here are underestimating the Montenegrans. On paper they look to be technically sound and will give us a very hard game. I think people are forgetting that we struggle to beat any team away from home, let alone a half decent one so I'll be happy with a point and delighted with 3.

    I'm expecting a draw. Not because I don't believe we can beat Montenegro but because we're Ireland and we never get the best of starts. Robbie is due a goal. Richie is well capable of shackling Vucinic and O'Shea should handle the other striker so hopefully they won't score, possession is key. Hopefully Reid puts his foot on the ball and slows the game down because its when we get countered that we lose concentration and concede. My prediction is a 2-0 victory to Ireland. A goal on 35 minutes slightly against the run of play, Stephen Hunt to get. A clincher in the final 10 minutes as Montenegro push up the field. Shane Long to score.
