Hoolahan is old. He might be a very good player but he is not 21

So what's your point? You don't think he's better than what's out there just because of his age?

Well I think Trap has to go for the simple reason that he has ran out of ideas.

He ran out of ideas nearly at the start of his tenure.

Headshot

That motm is an awful joke

When Giles was Irish manager his tactics were not too far away from Trap's.
Hypocrite.

Cringe at Green getting man of the match, in fairness he was alright, but Coleman should have got.

an Ingerland picking up 3 Man of the Match : D

Gas man that old Dunphy

It is , sure the last European Cup final was awful!

I think Green realises that he has probably earned his last Irish cap.

Does Liam Brady realise we weren't actually beating France it was 1-1 on aggregate.You would swear we were going through before Henry's goal.

He was on the sideline... Im sure hes well aware.

Is it not mathematically done and dusted? Sweden are 6 pts ahead with a better head to head than us?

I'd love to get someone like Rene Meulensteen is as manager. Get someone who focuses on the strengths of the team and works on them. He might do wonders with the younger players too.

Backstreet Moyes

Can anybody tell me why Joey O Brien is not involved in the squad. Unless he has made himself unavailable than i find it bizarre he is comfortably our best cb choice.

del bosque on €50k a year with Spain hahahaha Dunphy is a gas man!

Shane Long frustrates the hell out of me, God help us when Robbie packs it in as we will have no natural finisher in the team.

Did he ever have more than one? =p

Good point. Probably nothing else but 'defensive'

I think he is a good player but is on the verge of over the hill status and he doesn't command play physically enough.

He did get us to a major tournament for once in 10 years.

I'd say there's a few players there (or watching at home) who have earned their last cap.

Thought I had switched to the English post match interviews there for a minute.

Agree.
What's with the fukin Martin o'neill love in. Little jumpy hasn't a clue ffs!!
Sick of the rte panel being argumentative and "controversial" just for TV ratings, stupid and cringeworthy stuff.

He's managing an injury at the moment

Injured. He was in the squad but pulled out.

He has been overlooked before that though.

One thing that can be taken from tonight is Anthony Pilkington has a fantastic beard

desaparecidos

I can't see Trap getting sacked before his contract runs out.

If we beat germany.
Sweden and Austria draw.
Sweden and austria then lose their next games and we win ours then we can qualify.


But that's not going to happen.

I think he pulled that stat out of his hole like most of what he talks

Dunphy has been known to talk a bit of ****e in his time, but he's off the scale tonight.

Good man Dunphy... ya sham.

Eamo called out, good stuff

He had to pull out with injury or some program for an injury treatment.

Not a hope in hell.

Rayne Wooney

I think Dunphy was thinking about the CEO of Spanish football compared to Delaney when he was talking about those salaries. The Spain one is on a lot less than Delaney iirc

Arrivederci Manuela. We'll always have Paris.

Colonialboy

Id love to see Martin O'Neill get the job.

He'd be the first manager to bankrupt a National Team by going into th e transfer market and spending millions to buy Bale, Messi and Cavani...

Mr.Crinklewood

Her eyes are lovely.

Trying to cover his tracks now, claiming he was on about Bilic. Of course you were Eamo, of course you were.

nbar12

if Trap is still in charge for our game at home to the Kazakhs, I can't imagine more than 10,000 people turning up for it

edgecutter

We lost a little strength, what the fudge is he on about.

Johnny Utah

Bilic on €50k ???

Sorry, wrong again Eamo!

Third time lucky perhaps?

Yeah, you couldn't give away tickets for that match.

The FAI are waiting to press print on the press release. Of course he's gone.
