I'd much rather he spoke the usual sh*te and gave the media a load of blarney than start name checking players and basically saying they're not in his plans.

Football can change in the blink of an eye, we all know how sensitive the modern day professional football is nowadays! 

McCarthy - Westwood is now a last resort for Ireland (early October)

McCarthy - Calls Westwood up for qualifier against Denmark (late October)

Don't get me started on his stupid comment on Ryan Manning.

Think this game we would be better off with the pace of Long along with Connolly . Long can do what Collins is doing but he actually has pace .

Sorry wrong thread :)

They tried to pass to Whelan but he was hiding behind a Georgian.

Nah. Robinson is a decent player. However, the way we play we just can't get the best out of him. When Kenny takes over, I am confident he will do well as our style of play will suit him much better. 

The only way is up

Dont get those raw reviews over McClean. Robinson was much more worse in Georgia. McClean can play in any place in the midfield of a team. We need James Mccarthy and Brady in the 11 with McClean. I would also place young Doherty as holding mid.

It been happening for years. Even when Brady was actually playing well, he was being shoe horned into other positions to please McClean. 
Someone put a video of 2 minutes of McCleans worst moments on Saturday. It was dreadful viewing. So hard to play with someone who loses the ball so much as him,and with so little positional sense. It infuriates me that he is getting away with it week after week 
imagine what’s it like being the left back with him in front of you.

I think we’ll see better from Robinson in the future. I think we’ve already seen the best of McClean.

McCarthy will stick with McClean for his ability to break up attacks. I’d say Connolly will get his chance in place of Robinson.

His ability to break up the oppositions attacks or break up our own attacks by constantly losing possession?

Not true! Those rumours have been squashed; relations remain cordial.
