He’s done ok so far.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
Three awful touches from Obafemi in this half. Those are the sorts of errors that turn these games stupid.
Yeah, he's rusty
We badly need someone to run at them. But Johnston is on the bench
hopefully we can hold on for a point. something to build on.
In fairness Gibraltar are an up and coming team. 100% not Kenny’s fault
Imagine we’ll see him sooner rather than later.

Just going to repost this...
At least their 40-year-old is gone off injured
Put it wide,cross and hope for the best,grim enough….
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
still right in this.
It was always going to be us attacking them for the full 90 minutes, and the question would be about how we would go about breaking down a 10-man defence. So far we have no idea how to do it. Some awful decision making, over-playing things, and really poor crosses. The one thing they want is time to get their shape and get their 10 men behind the ball, and we're always giving them the time.
We need to run at them and get at them faster. That said, even if it all stays like this, we'll nick one or two and it'll be a deserved and comfortable victory.

Working it side to side and a poor cross hasn’t really been the answer to this question but it seems to be the instructions they’ve received. It just hasn’t worked. McGrath has done well though, to be fair. Obafemi and Cullen have kind of stunk the place out a bit.
We need to go 4-1-2-3, give full backs total license and bring on Johnston to beat the first or second tackle. Maybe Parrott for Obafemi.
a shame daryl horgan is the wrong side of thirty - he could have really made a difference tonight, but it's not over yet.
3 CB marking 1 forward.
As a result we are outnumbered in the final third. He has to change that.
Need to up the tempo as well, it’s too easy for Gibraltar.
Depressing team performance, without anyone playing really badly. Smallbone seems a bit off the pace. Johnston should be given a chance soon enough in the 2nd half. Disappointing, tepid stuff so far overall though.
Johnston coming on I’m hearing.
Johnston for Collins; ok with that. Harsh on Collins I suppose, but Johnston for a defender has to be good
I’d have probably kept Collins for technique and goal scoring threat and sacrificed Egan.
Yup.
But Johnston having the exact impact wanted at least
