    Unfortunately the streams don't always work in other countries. I've been caught on this in the US a few times when bet365 only seem to have Mexican league streams available when there are other games available in the UK or Ireland.

    Great article. Properly-directed criticism. Only part I'd query is why Shane Long would particularly be any better than Robbie Keane; that's just taken as read in the article.

    Good God I fear what Germany would do to us with a line up like that.

    Anyway, managed to finesse my way out of work for the morning so am quite hesitantly looking forward to the match.

    My prediction: 3-0 Ireland, Robbie Keane scores a hat-trick and half the nation calls for him to be dropped for Shane Long.

    It's the type of writing we need more of.
    Is it? I don't think Gibson would have started today regardless - McCarthy has leapfrogged him - Cox is not playing on the left or McGeady on the right, and McGeady stopped flattering to deceive two years ago. It seems to be just a jumble of vaguely accurate and inaccurate opinions with little evidence to back them up.

    Cox to do far better than anticipated with McCarthy running midfield.

    Yeah, that would be my only gripe with that article too.

    The bloodbath of Euro 2012 gave devastating confirmation that this side's negativity is useless if the opposition happen to be good – Spain, Croatia, Italy and Russia have all pulled them apart in the past year [...] [Robbie Keane's] days of posing a goal threat to strong teams are long gone
    I think the parts above are contradictory considering Robbie scored against Russia in that game. Also, to play the "big teams" card deliberately ignores his contribution to Ireland in the past year — he has scored quite a few important goals for us recently — his two goals versus Macedonia away, his goal versus Macedonia at home and his general performance versus Estonia in the play-off were all more recent than the Russia game, and were all critical to our Euro 2012 qualification.

    He doesn't have any goals in 2012 admittedly, but virtually no-one does for Ireland at the minute (St. Ledger, Long and Cox have 1 each in 2012). His form for Ireland has been excellent up until 2012 (8 in 10 games in 2011, 4 in 8 in 2010) and he's scoring goals in the MLS at the moment, whatever that means. I'd still rather have him in the team than Long for the minute.

    I was just going to post that it is very similar to a lot of the posts on here but you got there ahead of me!
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    I assume the author meant the away game in Russia, which was a year ago yesterday, since he refers to the past year. You have to say, one goal from four games mentioned is not good going.

    I have backed Cox to get on the scoresheet.

    Good shot from McCarthy, tried to bend it in the corner but a good save from the keeper. O'Shea and Walters both should have done better.

    Set-pieces might come in handy here. The Kazakhs defended all 3 of those early corners terribly.

    Dam I paid for a stream and now I find there are a few free ones, it's really top quality though
    pretty much as good as broadcast TV so I can't grumble. Not sure if the aspect ratio is correct though
    players looking a little squat. (edit think I have sorted it out but I think maybe the TV in Kazakhstan maybe 4:3)
