Yes, and although he got a bit of stick for retaining Walters, it should probably be seen in the light of having a rookie non-specialist right back on the night, Meyler.
And Delaney looked lumbering and off the pace yesterday.
A couple of good articles in the Sindo on O'Neill and his style. Fanning's is the more substantial but the second contains a remark by McGeady saying O'Neill didn't even discuss his position or role in Tuesday with him, that was left to Walford.

Noel Gallagher loves Roy Keane
But what's his beef with Celtic?
Is it a beef? It's the Indo' FFS, a rag of a paper in the main, with a pretty feeble quote from NG who's a confused man at best, re.his own identity.
Read like a beef to me... "I love Roy Keane. I actually liked him when he was at United but then he signed for Celtic..."
I remember Gallagher saying one time that he's half Irish, half English, as both his parents are Irish but he was born and raised in Manchester. Seemed clear enough.
The Indo is a rag though.... how did that happen? Was it always so bad? Seems bizarre that one of our main broadsheets could be so tabloid-ish and trashy.
Well it's up to him. Know plenty of similar who wouldn't claim to be the least bit English.
But even that claim's much more credible than the Indo' to be anything more than a pretty useless paper.
Hasn't he always said he supports Ireland in football, while identifying himself with Union Jack imagery (guitars, promo pics...)?
Good job he's not actually a footballer.
Noel likes Celtic, he has been to a few of the games. How his quote reads is slightly misleading....
I think what he meant is that he liked Roy (even when at United) so when he moved to Celtic he went up another level in terms of
appreciation.
If you listen to the Irishman abroad podcast (would recommend - Niall Quinn, Ronnie Whelan, Darren O'Dea all brilliant on it) then there is an advert/intro at the start with Noel stating 'I had an Irish upbringing'. Fairly sure both his parents are from Mayo. His mum definitely is.
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?
"No, I drink to help me mind my own business....can I get you one? (c) Ronnie Drew
"If God had meant football to be played in the air, he'd have put grass in the sky." Brian Clough.
You'll NEVER beat the Irish.......you'll just draw with us instead!!!
Mother from outside Charlestown, father from Meath, around navan/trim I think.
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
I think we got there in the end, so Noel passes the gut test?
Roy Keane, the lost film reviews. I laughed.
