    Alaba is a million miles better than anyone else on that pitch.

    anyone think Coleman has been told to reign in his marauding runs. looks like he is playing well within himself

    McGeady is by far our best winger. He is a big loss imo. Him and Brady would offer much more tgan the 2 out there tonight.

    No no no, what we need is McClean on the team. Nope,actually we need Hoolahan. Hold on, Brady is a star in the making. But yeah, McGeady would be a help. I just want whoever is not playing to be playing...Pilkington is crap, I think. Until he ia nit playing again of course

    The way Green is playing at the moment he should be well ahead of whelan in the pecking order for midfield slot.

    Alaba is going to really punish us soon, either with a goal or an assist. Wilson & Pilkington are not able to handle him at all.

    I've been saying for a long time how good McGeady is and nobody could be told. We badly miss him.

    This is a bit boring knowing that Sweden has almost has second spot in the bag bar a natural disaster.
    Austria are very ordinary side bar Alaba but they could easily beat us.

    No he didn't. The defender would have put it wide if it was any further out

    he did. it needed to be fizzed across the box. full power to beat the defender. Robbie would have dealt with it

    So are we, though.

    They have several Champions League players in their squad. We have zero.

    JOS yellow is a joke considering Dragovic has been doing the exact same thing numerous times.

    My 0-0 bet is looking good. Such a nothing game so far between 2 very average sides.

    Dont worry,there is still the second half for the hoof ball to begin


    Alaba aside there very ordinary and if our lads could a bit of belief in themselves we could nick a win here.

    You wouldn't think this was a competitive must-win game for both sides from watching that half.

    Thoughts on Long?

    Personally I think he's the most overrated Irish player in the team.

    Doesn't do enough for me and has an absolute ATROCIOUS scoring record for club and country.

    Agreed. He's probably still having nightmares involving Marco Reus.

    Looks like O'Shea is out for the Germany match. Well, on the bright side Cox might get a game at CB.

    Yea, I hate to say it but I'd nearly hate to see us nick it as it'll only validate the awful approach and tactics from the manager for another game

    Very limited but still does win a lot of frees and makes good runs.

    Did Liam Brady confuse Alaba and Balaban there? Jesus wept.

    Hopefully just a bad run of form, he's done well for us before so I wouldn't be in a rush to write him off yet. When we play so many long hopeful balls forward we need someone to get on the end of them
