Who's overhyped him? I think people forget that he still has years ahead of him. I don't think he's been a bad buy for Burnley either, £10 million for a newly promoted team, they're always going to be on the back foot in games because of that. There's been cases where he was just simply outclassed by the opposition but at the same time there was the live Monday night game (forgot the opposition team) where he ran the show and he's got himself Goal of the Season for Burnley, definitely not a terrible season at all. I just wish he'd inspire the team more, get stuck in challenges when the opposition are enjoying lots of opposition because right now he couldn't be any less inspiring.

He congratulated Kevin Long and criticised his own performance calling it "bad" |

He has been though, he has been truly awful! He got hyped over after the Euros but has done f**k all before or after. He clearly has talent and has shown it in spells but has no application of it at all. He has a massive attitude problem as well. I think the Derby fans used to say one good game in 8, I don't think he has even hit that for Ireland. 32 games for Ireland and most of the debate is still centring around where he can play and what he does.

Hasn't been that bad PM! Definitely a poor qualifiers though.

Did he admit he was terrible Sunday or in general? I respect his honesty if it was the latter.

Good to see him come on social media and admit he was terrible. Respect for that. While I agree he has been terrible, he is also a massive scapegoat.

When a team plays crap all players stink and when they play well most of the players look like they've played well.
As for the midfielders, when the ball is above your head for large periods, it can be hard to make an impression.

As pointed out in group D thread he is on a booking so could be good if he picks up another in Georgia and misses Serbia game

Getting free caps off a decent Euros. Pattern of anonymity has been going on for the entire campaign. Time he was dropped.

Jeff will come good again im sure of it. Not quite sure why he has been poor the last few games. He has everything to be a really good midfielder. We need to stick with him. Maybe a game or two startibg from the bench might give him a kick up the arse he needs.

Are you saying Hendrick or Arter were any better? I certainly don't think they were. Whelan won the ball more than once and wasn't as anonymous as Hendrick. I'd really like to see how many times Hendrick had the ball yesterday and what he did with it. His movement was alright but he certainly wasn't as tenacious as Whelan or as mobile or demanding of the ball as Arter (or Hoolahan when he came on). Hendrick was the one who should have made way for Hoolahan. |

Happens far too often though, that is the problem. Jeff needs time on the bench. He is still living off that time he hit the bar against Sweden. In any case, I think the midfield shoud be Arter & McCarthy in the holding roles and Brady, Hoolahan, McClean in front of them. Edited by grannyrule - 12 Jun 2017 at 7:16pm |

He was shocking yesterday forgot he was on the pitch at times. Was amazed he lasted the full 90 minutes and says alot about our manager when he leaves him on and takes lads off who were playing better than him

I think what annoyed most punters yesterday was his anonymity. Not playing well and a lack of impression on the game is what set him aside for me. There is a good player there.

Advanced Midfielder is his best position... Where hes being played is not the problem.. As I've said numerous times in the past after spending a full year defending him he's just extremely lazy during bad spells of the game. If you watch him during the Euro's where the whole team was up for it, and then the qualifier games, the difference is night and day
