A lot of talk here from three experts on Irish football, but unfortunately only one person hit the nail on the head. Dunphy's "root and branch" approach is the best thing for Irish football. We need to start coaching kids properly and if it means not being able to qualify for 8 or 10 years then so be it. We just cannot continue kicking the ball towards an isolated defender and hope to get positive results from that style of play. It's like a boxer putting his chin out and telling his opponent in the ring to hit him as hard as he can. It's just suicide the way we play.
Mark Stokes true O'Neill needs to go our style of play is shambolic and some of our performances were disgraceful we can't string three passes together against teams like Georgia and we were shit who'd take a point against Georgia we only string passes together when we had a 35 year old who couldn't get in the Norwich team people will argue we're shit we can't play like Barcelona in Euro 2016 we played well (except Belgium game ) we need to change our style we should be going to Georgia passing the ball having a lot of possession and winning by 2 and 3 goals not hoofing the ball long and hoping for the best no hate its my opinion
They have been saying this since 1977 over 40 years ago when Dunphy and Giles were going to make Shamrock Rovers a European power. :D They are in dreamland. The way to improve Irish soccer is for Irish soccer supporters to support thier domestic league. Unfortunately through mismanagement when the times were good in the 1950s and people saying 'We' for British clubs, the ship has sailed
nigefal the problem with the our domestic league is very poor the facilities there and the pitches are woeful . our league is basically your average Sunday league it's hoof it up the pitch the only teams in the Irish league are dundalk and cork city the other teams are mediocre sides
What was Dunphy’s definition of ‘looking from the outside’ when he was talking about Trapattoni and Martin O’Neill? Was he trying to say that Martin is from a different country?
Love him or hate him dunphy has some great insights
How to steal a living while attacking managers, then suggesting they should come back after he has tired of the new one?

A bit hypocritical from Brady considering he was part of the coaching team under Trapattoni.
The point is we are not good enough

He has been in the job for four years, it’s time for him to go
