This is the team to beat Spain: ...................Given O'Shea...St.Ledger...Dunne...Ward ............Gibson....Andrews Duff.........McGeady.........McCLean ...............Walters So fly me in Mr.Delaney...and Ill do it all for free, Ill even pay for my own flights. Thoughts?
O'Shea to LB and Kelly in at RB and you have a deal. I hope Trap has been working on it as McClean has the legs, but maybe not the discipline to tuck in..... I hate saying it, but Hunt has shown he can lend weight as a 3rd man in the middle and attacking down the wing.
Just got the news that cox is starting ahead of Doyle in a 4-5-1 formation with Keane up top on his own... What is Trapadirt thinking?
lol, he got you there which is probably better than your team deserves, the way you go on you'd think you were one of the best sides. People say the English are arrogant, you lot want to sack your manager because he's cautious against the current world and European champions and your best players are mid-table EPL mediocrity?!?
No we dont think were one of the best sides. I dont want him sacked because hes cautious, I want him sacked because he of his team selection, the man is deluded!
You may aswell support Spain with that attitude. The players we have are not good enough to compete at the top level. Ward, McGeady, Whelan, Andrews, Duff, Cox the list goes on, they are all terrible. We dont have the players to even compete with the top teams. He is payed to pick the team, the man has been in pro football for over 50 years and the best manager we have had in years but you want him sacked?
Exactly. Its only some of the fans though, most of us are realistic enough to know that we never had much of a hope anyway and were happy enough we got there.
Don't be stupid. We got into the tournament with the likes of Ward, Whelan, Andrews and Cox when there is teams like Belgium with the likes of Kompany, Hazard, Fellaini, Dembele and Vermaelen that haven't qualified. I'm not saying I agreed with Trap's selection but sacking him is preposterous! Give it over! Our 5 best players are 31,33,32,31 and 36 years old. We were never going to qualify, as much as I hate to say it.
Stated in another topic: The Euro's have shown that the northern european football is fecking dire. The worst teams have been: Ireland, Sweden, Denmark and England. Old fashioned management and football tactics....**** really
