I agree. Fair enough Murphy held the ball up but we didn't score whilst he was on the field, despite having the majority of the ball. Granted he played his part in retaining the ball but I don't think Walters would leave us down with his touch and control. And, Walters can score. He has a 25% strike rate for Ireland. Murphy has a 0% strike rate. They have 40 and 21 caps respectively.
I'm a bit worried Ward is out. And if he's not at 100% then how will a dodgy ankle cope against the electric movement whoever will be on his flank will employ (Kingsley Coman? Would need more than a good strapping for him)?
