And for the midfield, they’ve Cullen as well - it’s the trio I think are least likely to be overrun, in that they’re all active physical players. They’ll run and track a lot more than lads like Brady or Hourihane.

This is why I think Barry possibly had a big say in tonight's team if you look at how Chelsea have improved defensively lately.

Very happy with that lineup and hopefully means we will line out with 3 at the back. The Serbian lineup is surprising, lot of their big names aren't on the pitch, still plenty of players who we need to keep close tabs on.

Good to see a youthful midfield. Cmon boys!

Seems like they are in a fairly similar post good times crisis as we are just not as pronounced

He's been watching too much sky sports. Prbnaly feels the need to create some drama.

I hate how none of the players sing the national anthem. It's not like this with any other country

I'd say its mainly due to the fact its in a language not many of them speak, but I agree it does bother me too.

This crowd are no great shakes, failed to beat Panama, Dominican Republic, russia, Hungary and Scotland in recent times, nothing to fear.

Hard to sing when there are no words.

Exactly, so the hysterics that it doesn't happen in any other country goes out the window with that simple fact alone.

The White Feather

Fairly good start from us so far. Connolly doing well getting up the pitch a few times. Early days but we are competing at least

testtech05

Browne has given the ball away cheaply a few times hopefully we can settle in possession a bit more

Mr.Nice Guy

Browne is wrecking my head the amount of times he's giving it away.

But his heading is alright!

PTH2009

Christ cant see us been able to hold out

MrMusician18
