Agree. As I mentioned we should have kept our cards close to our chest especially for this one because even we didn't know if we were going to go 4-4-2 or 4-5-1. You would think up until this week Loew would have thought we would be sticking with the 4-4-2. Now he would have seen the press conferences and know we are only going with one up front and that we will have one man for Ozil. So now he can work to counter act that

He hasn't named his team, nor has he named his system, (I wouldn't take too much notice with that Tardelli says). I think your being critical for the sake of being critical here. It looks to me as if he is trying different systems with different people to see who fits the system best. So much for not changing tactics or system. I do agree though that he should not name his team until the last minute. |

I think Loewe woulda been fairly close to naming our XI and set up, given the absentees and the way Germany are set up, it's not rocket science to have a fairly decent guess at our selection/set up.
Some of yiz are looking for every possible weapon with which to beat Trap, I'm getting tired of him myself, but for Jaysus sake............. most/all of us called for change in the team and formation, well now we have it due to injury/retirement, there's just no pleasing some of yiz, I despair sometimes.
Come on Ireland.

Not at all, if if was any other manager naming their team in advance I would be under the same thinking, any information you can give the opposition prior to a match is beneficial to them. I don't really see how it is of beneficial to us. I don't think you would see the likes of Alex Ferguson giving his opposition manager that kind of head start

But he has not named his starting 11 and people are still giving out about something that has not happened or may not happen. |

We could even name our team and it wouldn't be clear whether it was 442 or 451 depending on who was selected.
e.g. a front six of -------Coleman, Andrews, McCarthy Walters ----------------------------- McGeady ---------------------Keane You wouldn't know whether Walters was in as a winger or a striker, and whether Coleman was selected as the right winger or as a third central midfielder. Now, I'm not denying that would be an unusual team (Coleman is no central midfielder even if he has played there before and Walters isn't the best winger in the world) but with Coleman as the right most central midfielder, McGeady on the left wing and Walters as the right winger / wide striker, it wouldn't be clear what our formation was or what our game plan was. To be clear, I'm not proposing this as a team, but never underestimate the power of surprise in formation even if we reveal the team early. |

Not worried about Keane, but Andrews possibly being out is a massive worry at this stage.

I am. Trap will still play him if not 100% fit. That's extremely worrying me

-1 He thinks Keane is our most important player because of his "Mentality" which is ridiculous.He would play him at 70% fitness Im quite sure of that..

That's grand. Sure the best thing you can do is sit in a pub and watch England play so. It's our country ffs, we can't buy players. That's the kind of response you get from the know it all EPL brigade when you say you are going to an Ireland game. I'm bloody proud of my country playing sport and will support Ireland in the good and bad times. I'd hate to have you in the army beside me wit that attitude lad.
