Swiss all over them now. Making them look ordinary. Didnt think the swiss had this in them today going on the 1st half. 

That's because Georgia are extremely ordinary.

Sure they may have improved a bit over the last few years but at the same time we've regressed a lot ourselves. (Thus we may be guilty of over rating them to extent)

For all I hear about how technically good they are as a team we've always beaten them (bar the away game under O'Neill last campaign) 

They probably should have been winning today, they fell away a bit after that and the Swiss showed their quality.
There is no doubt that Georgia are ordinary, but so are we. They seem to have improved and we have regressed. They look very poor at the back, but we haven't much in attack. They will have definitely looked at the games against us an opportunity to show how they have improved. I can't see us winning in Tblisi and I wouldn't be shocked if we drew with them at home, especially if Mick picks the eleven he has gone for today.

I doubt anyone would be overly surprised if "the one goal" wins it for either side be it in Dublin or Tblisi.

It'll be very much a case of drab 0-0s or a 1-0 either way I sense.

It's all rather depressing how far we've fallen but not surprising.
