    So far not really competitive anyway...

    The long ball there sums Ireland up, players haven’t a clue what they should be doing.

    Actually I'm a little more optimistic. Christie looks ok going forward. He's put on weight too.. stronger looking. Just a bit unfamiliar as a group. No clear creative outlet... not awful considering the circumstsnces. Bale produces a fab goal yet again.

    This either gets really embarrassing or turns into an amazing comeback. Seemed to be playing ok for the 10mins before that. Oddly look very vulnerable at the back where you'd think the team is strongest.

    I presume the optimism is long gone at this stage?

    This is predictably dire

    Certainly less impressed than I was...
    No straws to clutch here...

    It should be but what's the bet it won't be. The FAI won't sack him, he will have to leave on his own accord. A disgrace of a performance. Nothing has been learned since the Danish game.

    The combination of Hendrick and Hourihane centrally makes no sense to me. We need someone in there capable of protecting the back four. Meyler should have started.

    It's gas listening to them, with the odd football-related English word coming through every so often.

    Find it hard to care we are so bad with such a brutal manager that qualifying is a waste of time and likely only to lead to embarrassment on the pitch and another award for the "best fans in the world'

    Yes Meyler should have started, sitting in front of the centre backs.

    Reminiscent of Trap era.
    Qualified for one tournament and lost playoff for another.
    Then the wheels quickly fell off.

    And we were in transition then.

    We really don’t have a good pool of players but it seems we’ve no formula to give it a good go any more.

    definitely when we put on an attacking midfield we get slaughtered.

    Bit of cultural appropriation there from the Welsh defender with the hair.
