    At least the opposition are actually struggling with it so it's more productive than usual.

    They look dangerous on the break - good, rapid passing movements

    Kazakhstan have probably played more passes than us so far.

    Nice control from Walters there, pity he was offside. I can see us getting a goal in the first half.

    Do you think they're told to hoof the ball? Do they never think passing might be an idea?

    What would happen if it somehow interferes with play?

    Don't think it can be offside.

    They're not told or taught anything so they can't do anything other than tap it round and then panic when someone closes them down.

    The kazaks are so much more composed on the ball and have much better movement than us. Trap has single handedly destroyed the Irish football team, and we let it happen.

    Jesus Christ. How anyone can defend Trap at this stage is beyond me. He got us out of a weak group and we would not have qualified if we drew anyone but Estonia.
    Honestly I want Ireland to lose this if it means Trap will go.

    It's embarrassing to say that Kazakhstan are actually trying to play football while we are hoofing it long at every chance. That said it might just work.

    a surface like this is perfect for the likes of McGeady McClean and Long to get the ball down and run at them. instead we just hoof it and lose possession. typical.

    I was definitely happier watching Ireland under Mick when we weren't getting into tournaments, the qualifying campaigns were usually very exciting and there were some great games. If we need to be this bad to qualify for tournaments, I'd rather try and actually play football and not have as much chance of qualifying.

    If teams like Kazakhstan hired a decent defensive coach Ireland would be about 50 places lower in the rankings.

    Just thinking, McGeady has probably played on astro turf a fair bit in Russia so we should be getting him as involved as possible. Doubt any of our other players have played on it before.

    I really don't think it's as bad as some are making it out, we have had a few chances and are clearly the superior team.

    Count yourself lucky. I feel obliged to watch international matches when physically possible but most of the time it's torture.
