We win our last 5 games and that should be good enough as I would say Serbia would drop more points

I dont think we've won 5 games in a row in our history...

I know, it's not happening but just saying I dont think we will have to be worrying too much about other results if we win our last 5 and that's what we have to do if we are to have any hope

We've been blessed over the years to always be in with a shout in the final game of the qualifying group to either qualify or make a play off - only recent exception would probably be the 08 Euros but we've been very consistent over the last 30 years in that regard.

I don't think you've had five correct posts in your history
Mick McCarthy won five in a row from October 2000 until April 2001 - Estonia, Finland, Cyprus, and Andorra twice.

Jack Charlton won eight in a row from May 1987 to May 1988 - Brazil, Luxemburg (twice), Bulgaria, Israel, Romania, Yugoslavia, and Poland.

Both Brian Kerr and Steve Staunton won four consecutive games as well

We COULD get 13 points from next 5 games

Unlikely but would that put us in the play off mix?

Luxembourg certainly are targeting 2nd now

Serbia have gotten away with murder by not having VAR for their first two games. They genuinely could be on one point right now - a 2-2 vs us and a 3-2 loss vs Portugal.

Clear peno not given for us and Ronaldo scoring a goal that wasn't given. Wouldn't of been the added pressure for Ronaldo to beat his record vs us on Wednesday if that goal stood.

Yeah unfortunately it was gone after the first two rounds to be honest. Tonight was just a mathematical formality with games running out.

I thought we were already eliminated. Serbia ahead of us on H2H. We could only match their points total.

No it goes down to GD first so technically we could have still qualified before the Serbia game..

Two of their goals were penalties. One of the Luxembourgish players must have farted near Ronaldo.

How did we ever lose at home to Luxembourg? Lost 4-1 in Serbia and 5-0 in Portugal, both this autumn.
