well we'll be playing on the artificial patch in the olympic stadium and it will be a bigger, more hostile crowd so might be more of a task then slovakia had today. also, the goal was an absolute gift from russia. just saying all the same, i always felt that both sides are beatable if we have the right mentality.

If we can manage a point in Slovakia and take all 3 off Russia, The ball is in our court and(to an extent)qualification is ours to lose.

Great result for the Slovaks, congrats Aarhat and the lads. These October games look like they could be the making or breaking of us qualifying, even at this early stage. Like Carmody said above, 4 points and we are still in the driving seat.

Can someone please explain to me how Slovakia winning tonight was a good result for us? Some people on here are nuts thinking this was good for us, absolute disaster of a result.

Agree.
Russia will come all gung ho in October and it more or less means we will have to match Slovakia's result in Moscow.
Draw would have been ideal but f**k it, worry about our own games.

Carmody no one expected Slovakia to take all 3 points from that game tonight apart from Barlow, when Trap would have looked at all the games he would have had Russia to be on 6 points after 2 games and not Slovakia, its a disaster IMO, need to go and beat Slovakia next month or else it could be a long campaign.
For the record I cant see us beating Slovakia or Russia away by the way.

If we want to qualify on top from this group, we should be concentrating on our results and not sh*tting ourselves about others. We have 6 points, good confidence and neither Russia or Slovakia are world beaters, far from it. Our lads are capable of beating both of these sides at home and hopefully have enough character these days to go away to both countries and get a result. I aint overly worried about that Slovak shock win.

congrats to slovakia , it actually makes it easier now for us to come first , but harder to come in the top two !!
if we beat russia at home they are in serious trouble , they will come looking for a draw i think but are dangerous enough to get the win , HUGE game.
slovak goal was fantastic and there was soem excellent defending, zilnia will be tricky

I think both Russia and Slovakia are better technically than Italy and of course a lot of teams are better than the French team that we faced. I think they will probably be the two hardest tests of the Trap era. Of course we showed way too much tactical naivete in both Italy matches. I hope history doesn't repeat itself. Maybe the fact that Trap isn't from Eastern Europe will help. I'm resigned to the fact that Kilbane will start both games which will put us at a huge disadvantage from the off. I just hope that Andrews comes in for Green because the stars aren't aligning for a Fahey or Gibson start and of course Meyler, McCarthy and Wilson are stories for a different day. I don't need to elaborate on my opinions of Green and Kilbane. God bless the lad (Green) but he isn't up to this level and Kilbane played adequately against Armenia and Andorra but Russia and Slovakia have some of the best young wingers in international football and I fear that Killer won't know what will hit him. |
