What's he said that's incorrect there?


What have I said that’s incorrect?


So your issue is with him being honest?


He might be too honest tho, do you think he’d have been so blunt if he wasn’t already tied to us?

Case in point is Connell in the last squad, he was going to retain him and by all accounts give him a run had he not got injured

I think calling him a prime cock for being honest about a player with a total of two Premier League starts is way OTT if we're sticking with honesty...

Different case with Connell in that Gibraltar was the opposition.

If Troy Parrott makes the final 23 he will look a bit silly after his comments re Obafemi.

I don't think mick has ever been one for talent spotting to be fair.

in his time at Ipswich he signed a total of 81 players with 56% of his signings having made less than 10 starts for the club, while only eight have scored 10 goals or more 

Admittedly he did extremely well considering he spent about £4m total in all his time there.

Different with Connell?, bull, no matter who the opposition was , he was going to throw an untried 18 year old into a qualifying game with the sole purpose of tying him down

Sean Mcguire has had a few opportunities and looks like he will maybe never be anywhere near good enough at international level from what I’ve seen.. might be ok in the championship.. Obafemi deserves a decent run out at the very least ( Bulgaria friendly)

Do those stats not show that Mick is far from a conservative manager

Or he could play in the u21's and then call him up if he deserves to be called up.

The players in the squad should be there on merit, the only reason Obafemi played against Denmark was because O'Neill wanted to avoid another player slipping through the net on his watch.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

As far as I remember O’Neill nearly made a balls of that as well, given the fact that Obafemi had to release a statement that he was fully committed

Scores vs Fulham in the League Cup. Assisted by Redmond (remember when we were hoping that he'd make the switch a year ago).
