Never thought I would say this, but thank God Mick is our manager.

That's actually a better team than the one fielded last night.

Ah here! What positions are Brady and Hourihane playing in this team? 2 defensive midfielders along with 3 CB’s? Or is Duffy playing up front?

It's not the team I would pick but it's still better than what we saw last night. The central defenders are in the wrong positions though.

The only small thing is that we know with 100% certainty that we have to win which will concentrate the minds of everyone on the same goal which isn't the way normally.  Some want to win and the manager wants to draw.

That being said I don't see a way we can beat Denmark.  We are so bad that the only possibility is a total poxy win like when we beat Germany.  Get totally outclassed but take our only chance and ride the arse out of our luck on the night. 



Everyone remembers the 5-1, but Denmark weren't that impressive in the three games we've played with them since.

We're playing badly of course admittedly but I thought Switzerland caused us far more problems in the two game than anything we saw from Den in 2018-19. It doesn't help though that the Danes need only a draw.

Cannot believe some fella from Luton Town with only 1 cap got to START 2 huge games against Georgia and the Swiss. Its pathetic

And I'd put my house on it that he'll get called up next month

Whatever about anything else, Hourihane SHOULD be starting in an advance role against Denmark. Only one who can creative something and bring our attackers into play

Why wouldn't he get called up?

It's as obvious as things come that Collins will be in next months squad.

Hourihane as 10 in the hole may work out

I don’t know where the Hourihane love in comes from. He’s just as culpable as our other midfielders, offset a little by his decent set pieces

The same lad people were looking to get called up and delighted after his performance against Bulgaria.  Now people pining after Maguire despite the fact he has been utter pig spunk any time he has played for us...the long omission is weird  though

Basically everyone is sh*te. Substitute one sh*te player for another sh*te player = same result

He is similar to Hendrick in that he doesn't bring his club form into the games with us. Two of them joined the group in great club form and served up compete dross.

How in gods name do so many people want Brady starting against Denmark?! The lad hasn’t done a tap in ages, and now you have lads that want to play him in a position he has proven to be totally unsuited to again?

I think this can be generally attributed to his not being James McClean.

Brady and Long just get better and better when they aren't playing. Brady has been woeful for us for a long time can't even make Burnleys bench. Long must have the worst goalscoring record  that you'd see and also mostly can't make his clubs bench. 

Daft suggestions really they won't even make the squad nevermind the team and they can't complain either.
