And she has been around for years and has had tonnes of caps.  

In that case, where were all the Euro and WC qualifications during her long career pre-Pauw? Or is she  claiming that this is a talented squad but admitting that she herself is a useless player?

The squad was getting stronger and stronger over the years and the setup and conditions were getting more professional.  In addition more and more players were turning pro and playing abroad.  This all leads to exposure to elite training etc.  hence improvements in results.

Absolutely disgraceful comments from Caldwell. I don't know who is advising her, but putting the boot into a hugely popular and respected figure like Vera is a seriously bad look.

She's also creating huge pressure for the team going forward with her claim that Pauw had zero input into the squad's success over the last two years.
It's still all guesswork re Pauw although sacked from the Dutch role, banned from coaching in the US and now a mutiny against her in her previous role and no contract extension despite the fact she got a team to their first WC.

Now, I'm no detective but it's not exactly difficult to see what the common denominator here is? 

Let's see how hugely popular and respected she is when trying to find a new role. But, maybe everyone who's actually worked with her is wrong and the few fellas on YBIG who have no involvement or knowledge of her are correct? 

I wouldn't be a Stephen Kenny fan but I'd feel really bad for the guy if one of the men's team came out and dissed him like this at a press conference. I don't care what has been going on behind the scenes, you don't trash your manager like that.....it's totally unprofessional, especially from a mere bit part squad member.
I agree, she shouldn't of. That's not the point I was making.

Also, can we not pretend that this doesn't happen in the men's game? There has been numerous instances over the years a lot worse than this. 

People banging on about drama in the women's game when it wouldn't have a patch on the on drama that goes on the mens game.

There's a possibility that Caldwell will be making her final appearance(s) during this camp and that's why she was the one to come out and say what she said. 

Regardless of what they thought, I think the squad should have kept quiet on the situation as they've created a situation where they absolutely have to qualify in the eyes of the general public and the media. Anything else will be solely their fault, whether they had justification to want Pauw gone or not.

Caldwell was a bit part player and the bitterness in that interview is shocking.

She has 97 caps and has played since 2006.  She is coming to
The end of her career and was used sparingly as a result at the World Cup. She was selected to be part of the leadership by Pauw.  
Does anyone think that what Caldwell has said is not pretty much what the rest of the squad have been thinking.  

Not one player has come out and said Pauw should have been kept on.  In what world is Pauw right and everyone else wrong including previous employer.  Basically the only argument people have in favour of Pauw is that we qualified for the World Cup.   It’s like once you qualify you have freedom to manage in anyway you like.

If the Irish players think they would have qualified for the World Cup even without Pauw as manager, they are quite deluded. Do they think they are the Spain or England squad or something? Most small or medium ranked teams need the aid of a very good coach.
