Weakened squad and end of season friendliest aren’t usually a recipe for good games or performances but given we’re we are, not beating Andorra wouldn’t be great.

I’d say there’s one or two on this thread who secretly want us to lose to Andorra. Expectations are very low. This is by far the weakest Ireland team I can remember. We are a poor team at the moment. We were absolutely garbage in the Euro 2020 qualifiers under Mick. I feel we’ve been playing better under Kenny but still can’t beat anyone. I’ve every confidence that results will slowly improve under Kenny.

Will Kenny be dancing a jig on the sideline if we beat Andorra 

Only seen this today. Never noticed the eye movement until I seen this. Has him off to a tee

What we need, is to give Kenny enough time to find 11 players who can do a job. He inherited a squad from Mick that has needed a transformation from top to bottom.

So far Jason Knight, Josh Cullen and Darragh O'Shea have passed the audition. Molumby looks like he needs more club experience but might eventually get there.  Alan Browne, O'Dowda, Matt Doherty, Duffy, Idah, Ciaran Clarke have so far failed the audition. We need to hope Omobamidele, Szmodics, or McGrath can stake a claim. But given time, I believe Kenny can find 11 young hungry players, who know their role, and can come in and do a job and gain more experience each time.
