A fuck iff with that yellow

That Dykes lad is taking inspiration from Ashling Thompson with the aul tattoos.

Doherty can’t turn back inside there and lose the ball. He’d put the fear of god in you

Have to get Cullen off now, games to highly charged to hold back on one.

Correct. I’d been mislead into thinking Ukraine were on 9 points earlier. Be gas if England ended up in our Nations League group next time.

Very enjoyable game, hammer and tongs

McGinn is some cabbage

Cullen picked up a stupid yellow for mouthing off presumably and almost picked up another less than a minute later. Next one and he’ll be gone.

Just hook him. Scotland will target him now.

John Egan is some man to chew the cud

This is very impressive stuff.

We’ll hold out until the 89th minute and then concede twice.

Good half there. We’ve been fairly organised and solid as a unit. We’re not really playing through the lines all the time or anything, but we’re not punting it away aimlessly either. Some decent passages of play though. Collins will be a massive player for us. A lot of the time when they’ve pressed us hard and tried to win it in our half, he’s just stepped up and past lads with mazy dribbles, and gotten us out of trouble. Obafemi has mixed some excellent things with a bit of sloppiness. We scored from the corner that followed but he should have played Parrott in for a shot on goal in the move before it. There was also another good moment where we were driving at them and he gave a loose pass. Molumby has one of those incidents in every game where his first touch gets away from him and makes a reckless lunge to try to recover it. Cullen will need to be careful after that booking and his foul after it.

Parrott has been very impressive. He is linking it up very well, and Obafemi is making good runs into the wide channels.

Doherty is running well but needs to learn when to realese the ball. Hes ran it clean out of play twice more or less.

If we could raise the tempo a small bit in possession we’ll hurt them, taking a second too long on every pass

RTE handing the initiative to Scotland playing ads with 500 miles in them

Collins is the kind of ball playing centre back the big clubs want. Looks the real deal

What midfielder do we have to replace Cullen if we do hook him?

Hendrick surely?

Hendrick i suppose
