    I know they're only the Faroes, but still, much rather not be missing 2 of our best players...
    Better missing that one than getting a yellow in that one though.

    Long still full of running, sammon is dead on his feet.

    Long off? Would you ever go and **** off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52,445 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Wrong man off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭andyman


    Long is the only one who looks like he still has plenty in the tank..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,040 ✭✭✭markie29


    ****ing hell!....why not take sammon off? long was still causing so much damage


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,133 ✭✭✭Stevecw


    Oh ffs Trap, motm now we sit back and suffer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,365 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    fúck you Trap.

    take off Sammon.

    at least it's another midfielder.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,536 Mod ✭✭✭✭Amirani


    Great shift from Shane Long.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Trappatoni would want to hope we don't concede or the media and everyone will be out for him.

    Holy ****, we aren't even going 4-5-1. **** me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,889 ✭✭✭✭klose

    Green did have a good game against Sweden, but I do think that Trap has something against Hoolahan...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,044 ✭✭✭Hitchens


    no way would I take Long off

    It's the right call by Trap.

    Just got a yellow so precautionary I imagine.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,193 ✭✭✭✭Kerrydude1981


    Eammo wont like this in the studio with no Wessi time

    Thank god he brought someone on at least,took him long enough


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,044 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Probably not what I would have done, but I can understand it. Green gives extra energy into midfield, and now we have 2 genuine big fuckers up top to try to make the ball stick when we punt it long.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller


    Sammon works his socks off but he's out of his depth at this level .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,019 ✭✭✭✭adox

    It's not. It's just not.

    So did McCarthy don't see trap taking him off .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,751 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Am I the only one who thinks bringing on a more defensive midfielder makes more sense than bringing on an attacking one for the last 5?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,500 ✭✭✭Your Airbag


    It's the right call by Trap.


    Totally agree. If by right you mean mind fcukingly wrong.

    I'm baffled by that change.

    Can understand putting Green on if he was to shore up the midfield, but a straight swap with Long and leaving Sammon is nonsensical.

    Clock might mean Trap will get away with it but it deserves a lot of criticism.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,304 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Pogatetz crumples under pressure like a rich tea being dunked.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,536 Mod ✭✭✭✭Amirani


    Get Doyle on for Sammon. We need a new runner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,136 ✭✭✭del88


    Come on lads ... concentrate


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,365 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    to get a midfielder on? yes.

    to take Long off? hell no.

    Yes, but we also should have taken off one of the two players who look shattered, not the one who still has plenty of running.

    Your blind faith is ridiculous.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    It is. The idea of bringing on an attacking player in this situation is lunacy. We needed to get one off.

    We are still playing 4-4-2. It's literally done nothing for us other than taking off a player who still has some energy in the tank. It doesn't really make sense.

    I'm talking about taking Long off. Lunacy.

    Also shape hasn't changed at all. Still 442 with Walters pushed up front.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭Jax Teller

    We need to hold on the ball . Hoolahan would have helped at that more so than Green .

    Green for Long.

    This thread is gonna explode

    I hate these kinda tactics. Grow some balls and change it up you aul fossil..

    Don't see what Doyle can offer here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭PizzamanIRL


    Can he not see Sammons legs are gone. Get him off.

    Sammon is a bigger body than Long. If he's the furthest man forward, slightly better chance of winning, and keeping the ball up there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,109 ✭✭✭Patser


    Trap'll probably give Kehoe his traditional 3 minutes

    no one said anything about taking an attacking player off if it was sammon because he isnt fit to run at this stage while long was still causing problems for the austrian defense

    McCarthy is a midfielder. Bringing on green shores up the midfield making it harder for Austria to break through.

    Sammon's exhausted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 932 ✭✭✭Yillan


    Long was taken off because he made a very tired tackle on an Austrian player and got a yellow. He was dead on his feet out there. Green had a good game last week and has been decent here.

    Dangerous fk to come


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,304 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Fcuk all there for that free. Joke.

    Long has caused the Austrians problems all night and all over the pitch.

    Sammon's size has nothing to do with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,961 ✭✭✭✭_Kaiser_


    Ohh essential save. Well done Forde


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 52,445 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Good man Forde.

    Have you watched the game? That's clearly false.
