Like a said this will hurt deep, we have been written of so many times before an just like before we will bounce back!" Tears and snotters and sob stories. I think James is just being a bit cute to try and avoid the flak! There's loads of people who could have done what James done last night. Run around like a headless chicken! He's turning into a bit of a regime spokesman! I'm glad someone else noticed this. He is far down the list of players to be slated after last night, but again when we are chasing a game (serbia at home was other example), Mclean loses all positional cop on and tries to be everywhere. This ends up hurting us

As a result Christie's limitations were exposed.   The half time subs were baffling and it turned into a shambles of individual error on top of a tactical shambles and heads dropping etc. As bad as it gets as a Ireland fan. A bit like Cyprus away.

Bad management at 2-1 left us open to being destroyed. One good player. Scoreline flattered you.  Enjoy the group stages.  And quit your gloating. You can go back to your own forum now

Denmark are a better side with the best player. 4 goals better though? No, we did absolutely everything in our power to help them last night.

Ireland will never ever beat mid ranking European team 5-1.

bar a few crosses Brady offered nothing in play. absolute garbage the only one I would give credit to is Darren Randolph. it could have been 10 or 11 over the 2 legs. awful, I dont buy into mccleans whole speech defending the players. how can you defend a performance like that 5 f**king 1 at home in a world cup play off. yes the danes are better than us but they shouldn't be embarrassing us like that on our own patch with so much at stake. Can't recall a worse result if I'm honest.
