Eriksen started his career at Middelfart, he certainly blew us away tonight.
Glad you found it illuminating, it's always nice to get a lovely post like that from you, it makes me feel so special.
We all know what needs to happen and the question is posed right here.

They had their chance. They lost at home to us, so didn't deserve o go further. Same as Ireland ultimately.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
We would have stunk out the World Cup anyway....where's the ambition in how we play?...we don't have to play tiki taka but something that's aggressive,high tempo yet utilises a modicum of skill
We gifted them 3 goals tonight. I didn’t see the point in taking Meyler, our captain, off. We needed to go for it so the gamble had to be taken but it should have been Long and Hoolahan for Hendrick/Christie and Ward for me. But there ya go, hindsight is 20/20
At least this will give the FAI plenty of scope to focus on League of Ireland involvement in Europe next summer ...
j'accuse!
We never ever have our full lineup in. And never will I suppose, If McCarthy is supposed to be our top choice for starter.
The Danish manager said he was baffled by our formation, said we left an amazing amount of space in midfield, the polar opposite of the game in Denmark. I think he may have even said, "thanks very much for giving us so much space" in the interview.
Whatever about it being a shambles of an evening...
McGeady for Meyler is a substitution i will never understand.
I'm just despondent after that.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Why would he want to rub it in after he won? Just STFU and go home.
Comeback Mr Trapattoni, all is forgiven.

After the 6-1 home loss to Germany and the worst tournament performances we ever had. You're on your own there buddy.

Christ Boovidge, some of us are 40 now!!!^Christ, I'll be nearly 40 then. Was 13 in 2002
40 is the new 20 Ben. I hope.
I think this is the lowest point I remember for the Ireland side in my 50 plus years. And we have had some bad ones. Denmark are a bang average side with a very good midfielder, not a world class one. They are certainly not in the same league as the Denmark team that took us apart twice in the 80's. Since Brian Kerr we have had a succession of managers who instil lack of belief into the squad and encourage the squad to defend deep and try and nick a goal, then hang on for dear life. The neutrals who watched Saturdays game must have been praying we didn't make it, imagine having to watch that style played out on world cup TV for 90 minutes. My suggestion is forget the Euros, get rid of the veterans and try and build with younger players, and yes, even Eircom league players if they do the business in European club competition. We are going nowhere with this O'Neill. Get the other one or Kenny.
It Probably could have gone a bit better ........
Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
