Could turn into a bit of a hiding this.

**SkStu** · 29/03/2011, 7:27 PM

wow, we're terrible at the back. 3-1 now. Ugly.

**paul_oshea** · 29/03/2011, 7:27 PM

westwood definitely should have done the same again there he doesn't cover the far angle the right angle again.

**livehead1** · 29/03/2011, 7:28 PM

Foley, O'Dea, McCarthy, Clark, Keogh, Green, are all showing that they are not up to the highest level.

**Noelys Guitar** · 29/03/2011, 7:29 PM

That began with Lawerence giving the ball away and then trotting back. All over the place at the back. At least this is the time to find out about certain players.

It's nigh impossible to cover the whole goal in a one-on-one situation. Defending to blame for that one, again.

Let's not write them all off after 45 mins. It's a virtual Ireland B team up against a pretty strong Uruguay side.

They've been OK going forward. Just far too open defensively. Can't afford that with players like Forlan and Cavani around.

**Noelys Guitar** · 29/03/2011, 7:31 PM

Get to half-time and try tighten things up in the second half. They look like scoring everytime they come forward.

That is what I often think when he plays for Wigan, needs to get more involved.

im not saying he should def save it but he should definitely do better - again.

Why must you continually reference what other posters have written in relation to a different game to justify an argument you're having now?

Besides the entire back four ain't exactly showering themselves in glory here, nor is CM. Green and Fahey have been overrun for the last 20 and were directly (if not entirely) at fault for the 2nd goal. They made a positive start but we've been totally overrun in midfield since then. We're could get mashed here. Glad for HT.

RE: Westwood - we'll agree to disagree. I think it's highly unfair to say he didn't play the averages since all he could do was rush a striker who could barely miss. Even if Westwood went that way, he likely wouldn't have saved it since the he didn't have time to close the angle throughly enough. I'd go so far as to suggest you want every goalie to have the reflexes of Batman and the psychic reading abilities of Paul the Octopus (not to mention wanting the moon on a stick as well). But anyway...

Don't jump to conclusions anyway

Green's not up to standard. We know that. We didn't need the past 45 to show us that. But writing off the rest - Clark and McCarthy in particular - is a joke. They've no experience at this level.

This really shows the merit of the Nations Cup. The cup itself is fairly meaningless, but there will always be a bit of intensity between the home nations, something this game is totally devoid of.

**Noelys Guitar** · 29/03/2011, 7:40 PM

I wouldn't judge any of the players on this game. I would take Keogh and Green off and bring on Whelan and Gibson.

Not writing them off by any stretch, the older lads will never be ready, the younger wants aren't yet. They are likely to perform better with better players around them.
