Could not care less about this result tonight. All that matters is no injuries. We've really faded though.
Also goes to show the kind of presence that the likes of Jon Walters and John O'Shea have (even at this stage in his career). Have to say Whelan also.Just goes to show once we go outside our main 13 players how weak we actually are. The likes of Murphy, McGeady, Givson, Keogh and potentially Christie are weak options to have. Either not good enough or past it.
For sure. Same can be said for Hoolahan as well. Whelan had a great end to the campaign. Brilliant at home to GeorgiaAlso goes to show the kind of presence that the likes of Jon Walters and John O'Shea have (even at this stage in his career). Have to say Whelan also.
The fact that he's a fixture now for Stoke, and an important player at that, has been very impressive too. Fair play to him.For sure. Same can be said for Hoolahan as well. Whelan had a great end to the campaign. Brilliant at home to Georgia
Capped him now anywayLong is easily our best player.
O'Dowda looks like a talented lad, could have some potential there.
As long of none of these first-half people play, we'll do much betterNot getting a single point. Dreadful.
It's possible we won't get a point but you can't read too much into tonight's game. Very few of these players will play. The proper team was unlucky not to beat Holland the other night.Not getting a single point. Dreadful.
It's your last warm up game isn't it? How are you taking half a squad that won't feature? How are you back up players being out played and out thought by Belarus? Also, Holland didn't qualify for the euros despite being the easiest to qualify for in terms of the number of places.It's possible we won't get a point but you can't read too much into tonight's game.

We have a much better chance if we field the 11 vs Holland. Our depth is non existent though, any injuries and we are fecked. We need O'Shea, Coleman, Long and Walters firing on all cylinders.Not getting a single point. Dreadful.
Injured.Where has McCarthy been? Hasn't played in the last two games.
Because we have a decent first team but a weak squad. O' Neill won't make many changes with the usual team unless necessary. Plus this is the last chance for players before the squad is officially announced, some of the ones playing tonight won't be going. And the ones that are likely to be going would have been trying to avoid any injuries at all costs.It's your last warm up game isn't it? How are you taking half a squad that won't feature?

That performance was woeful tonight, I was shocked at how bad it was.
Yep like above. Our second team won't play if at all possible. Our first team, if fit, will do alright and may even better than people expect. We'll feck all impact subs though.It's your last warm up game isn't it? How are you taking half a squad that won't feature? How are you back up players being out played and out thought by Belarus?

Is he expected back for the Euros?Injured.
Ya he should be. He's involved in training, just not risked for the matches.Is he expected back for the Euros?

Do you reckon we could take the squad in my earlier tweet instead? #wealldreamofateamofgarybreensMurphy is a bigger lucky fella. He does nothing for us. A target man who can't do anything at this level, another Conor Sammon.
We could of course, but it would be unfair on the rest of Europe.Do you reckon we could take the squad in my earlier tweet instead? #wealldreamofateamofgarybreens
True. It's already unfair that we're unleashing Jon Walters on them all. Winter Is Coming.We could of course, but it would be unfair on the rest of Europe.
.....a team of Gary breens, a team of Gary breens!!???

I know Holland aren't great either but they matched England recently, iirc. Who beat Germany and France. Basically what I'm saying is not much should really be read into friendlies like these.
I thought the deadline for all squads was today? or was that just the FA deadline for England?Yep like above. Our second team won't play if at all possible. Our first team, if fit, will do alright and may even better than people expect. We'll feck all impact subs though.
This probably isn't the last of your disappointment.I thought the deadline for all squads was today? or was that just the FA deadline for England?
Don't get me wrong here lads, I want you to do well, I always do when you're in a tournament (there's probably some Cromwell guilt in there to be honest) I was just really disappointed with what I saw tonight.
EDIT: Just seen the squad announcement, wow Daryl Murphy is going?!
