EURO 2012

[seafoid]

The second goal was very poor from the Irish p.o.v.

3 defenders in front of Silva and he still scored
The link is called "Silva takes his time and adjusts his shot"

At least the current men on the Irish squad showed up for the games which is more than can be said for that ****.

comfortable on the ball

Jesus I hate that phrase. Everyone in our team is a professional and comfortable on the ball  - they can all control the ball and pass it - it's not that difficult. The difference is being able to do it at speed and under pressure which some of our lads aren't. Trap recognises this and so has set up the team to stop people playing and to take our chances from set pieces etc.

To me it comes down to the coaches philosophy on the game .Look at Swansea, Wigan etc -. Would you say that they would all get onto the Spanish/German teams - no but they are encouraged to play the game in a certain manner. Traps' outlook is different. I hate it myself but his job was to get us to the Euros. He did that so I had no real expectations from the tournament except to hope we had a chance going into the last game with a point - doesn't look like that will happen now -Still heading over though

Very enjoyable game last night and no one will tell me that we cannot try to play the game in the same manner - it's a cop out

Whats Keane saying on ITV?

Hes saying we shouldnt be happy with being good losers

[centre 3/4s]

Keane is brilliant and 100% right in all he says, everyone else tippy tapping around the issue and buttering it all up but to be fair to him a spade is a spade and he had no repect for anyone...

Whats Keane saying on ITV?

That they all should have walked out before the tournament started.

Whats Keane saying on ITV?

'ireland players not as good as they think they are. tough days ahead. you wouldnt see defending like that on a sunday morning. changes needed. need to change mindset and not just be happy to have a sing song'.

Keane was right, defending was absolute shite.

Keane was right, defending was absolute shite.

It didn't take Keane to tell us to know that.
