Kelleher has been beaten a lot of times for us since he made his debut - too many for my liking.

No. He's a spit of the singer for Fontaine's DC though

Zero he could do about the first. 2nd a big deflection, bad luck tbh.
We're decent enough..

Started positively, two well worked goals. Latvia coming into it a bit since that cracker of a goal. Browne had been poor-ish; Collins, for me, is questionable for inclusion against France. O’ Dowda, Obafemi and Smallbone have been our best players. 


Edit* more poor defending, CK a bit unfortunate, perhaps. We need to up the tempo now and not balls this up.

The 3 at the back all seem a bit too nice as a trio. Need a **** in there for diversity.

Are we a bit cursed? That's 4/5 goals we've conceded under SK that would be very very low percentage chances.

This is an interesting summation. Playing 'open' football has its perks, but like Armenia and Scotland last year it has its obvious downsides, and we simply dont have the stuff to outscore the teams we need to beat to be in with a hope of qualifying.

Also, I fear this will convince Kenny to put the same lads from last year on the pitch, and hope for the best against France.

Exactly. All 3 very young too. Expect 1 to drop out for Egan on Monday

A good team just wouldn't concede them. You'd have to be a bit worried about how we always seem to look defensively brittle at home.

First goal for Latvia was class. We tend to concede screamers against sh*te teams

Who's the guy on here who used to hammer Bazunu for not keeping clean sheets?

Your boy has conceded two vs Latvia.

Thats my logic, it can't just be a coincidence. There's serious concerns at the back.
