    This is dreadful. You'd think this was an end of season friendly.

    I can see boos at half time. And would be hard to say not deserved.

    No boos but the pretty much complete silence summed things up.

    Dire stuff. Suppose he set his stall out with not starting Hoolahan. Pathetic approach to a game like this.

    Not a criticism of Shane, more of management, someone tell him to stand up front, don't chase down a center back in 30 yards of space. Save your energy for when we have the ball.

    Shocking first half performance and Georgia deserve to be ahead.

    Once again our trademarks of no central midfield and no movement are there for all to see.

    We just look utterly shapeless out there. Passes are 2 or 3 yards away from where they should be. We need Hoolohan out there.

    Depressing stuff actually (when you look at the stats). Writing has been on the wall since Belgrade though.

    And the penalty could have been given for the handball on the ground (near McClean) as opposed to what happened to Long.

    I think we have resolutely failed Geysir's "signs of progress" test. That's just dreadful stuff, as bad as I've ever seen. I'm lost for words really.

    I'm not surprised with the performance - and that upsets me more than anything ...

    Atrocious stuff really.

    In terms of personnel, attitude, or tactics, I can't think of even one positive.

    Clearly the only cause for concern you've spotted out there TOWK. Since last month of course. Change the tune.
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    You don't think it would make more sense to start Hoolahan behind Long and\or push Brady wide? And why can we not do that?
