We're the polar opposite of Jack's Ireland now. Back then, we knew a goal scored was huge because we weren't going to concede, and it gave us confidence.
Now a goal against is as big because we know we're not going to score
Players are really under the public's pressure. I want to hear Liam Brady about it and Brian Kerr
Poorly fitted suit, white shirt hanging out…Kenny looking like a man under pressure. Actually fits pretty well from the back. But shirt hanging out earlier
Kenny finally makes a change, but it's because of injury. This can't continue.

Lads this is poor. Whatever semblance of a plan may have been seen last year is gone. To a degree the players are decent at elevating themselves here and there. We have a lot of big game players. But I don't think they are getting the leadership or the team selection right for "normal" games.
Obafemi should be starting. We can't have 3 false 9 lads out there.
I am a Liverpool fan so it pains me to say kelleher should be commanding his area there.
Hendrick is the only fellow with some urgency.
This should be the end of the road for Kenny, sadly but true, he has only himself to blame he sets up the team and choose the players
You have to admire Ukraine there, able to play the better part of four minutes with a man advantage by just keeping the ball in play.

I’ve given him a free ride for 2.5 years, or however long he has been here. Unfortunately he hasn’t improved his managerial skills and he actually has better players available for me and isn’t playing them. He is close to the end for me, let’s see how the remaining games go. Not sure on financial situation of FAI but Kenny isn’t on much. Summer change to give new manager some preparation for sept games may be best solution. Our squad slowly getting stronger, and Kenny does not look like an international manager
Hendrick so slow to get a shot of there…
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Just pull the ****ing trigger Jeff. We're always looking for one more bloody pass.

What’s actually changed from the Armenia game? Making the same mistakes in selection and substitutions only against a better opposition who are more likely to punish us for it…
Like I’ve said I’ve been Kenny in but this game as a response to the Armenia game is very concerning almost like we’ve accepted our fate rather than actually trying to change the script.
Stevens needs to come off and we need pacein the front line ogbene like shagged
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,

The lack of substitutions is incomprehensible.Originally Posted by CSAD
A triple substitution. You might as well just get "I got it wrong" tattooed on your forehead.

Alan Browne? Come on Kenny. Hendrick awful as usual as stays on the pitch
I've gone out the back for a fag, and seriously considering staying out weeding the patio
Back to the hit and hope tactic. This is bad.
For me, kenny has to go after this. The good news is we didn’t lose anything with this experiment. We had a woeful squad and weren’t going anywhere for the past 2 years in any case. The experiment was worthwhile and gave the FAI a chance to replenish their coffers and stabilize financially. Now it’s back to the league of Ireland for Kenny.
Time for a better manager who will get the best out of our ever improving squad
There's only so much more of this you can take really.
Ukraine aren't a patch on their performances v Wales and Scotland - obviously - but they've been comfortable throughout. We look as leaden up front as ever.
The next two matches could be tough watches. It's almost at the stage where a Denmark-style hammering could be a blessing in disguise
