What’s the major problem for Ireland for the past 6 games? Have you noticed any consistent theme in the matches?

judging players by goal tallies
I hate modern football - everything seems to be viewed through the prism of fantasy football rather than seeing what qualities they can bring to a side

A player who threatens the oppositions goals is not the “complete package”. I’m not writing molumby off. He’ll be a good nuts and bolts player for Ireland, better than the hendrick’s and Hourihane’s. But we need a player that turns 0 into 1 on the scoreboard.

I would agree. So his goal count so far in his young career isn’t great.

molumby is box-to-box, not holding

Ireland are not in huge need of holding role players or nuts and bolts players. They are in need of players that turn 0 into 1 on the scoreboard. That is the point.

wilson is a bit like hourihane, great free kick, long shot, cultured left foot, but often does not contribute a lot in open play

Exactly, 2 totally different players and positions. Molumby only scored once, he plays more in the holding role

Harry Wilson scored 15 goals on loan at derby. We think molumby’s ready because millwall fans like him but he only scored one goal there. Cutting edge.
Daniel James is in bad form. But he is transferred for a more expensive fee than any of our squad ever has. If you want to tell yourself any of O’Dowda, Horgan, Brady, McClean are going to to have as good a career as Dan James then go ahead. Maybe Connolly can, maybe. Kieffer Moore Is 6’5 and has quality crossers putting in the ball to him. Our best crosser normally doesn’t start at Burnley. Ireland are a team in search of a talisman. They have good nuts and bolts players but they are extremely low on inspiration and match winners able to get the team behind defences . Have been for 10 years.

Moore is a carthorse but he's transformed how Wales play tbf to him. He's a focal point and can hold the ball up and has got 2 or 3 goals for them in big games
I agree we have players of his standard mind

Those three players are no better than anything we have. Kiefer Moore is a similar player to James Collins, i.e. not good enough for international football. You're only namimg James because he plays for United, and I suspect Wilson has been named because he used to play for Liverpool. He's hardly setting the Championship alight at the moment.

This in a nutshell. Next campaign could be a tough one but hopefully we'll be over the worst of it then

I'd still argue that Wales were less than stellar in their efforts at Qualifying for Euro 2020. Their win in their opening game of the campaign was the difference, which Slovakia failed to be able to overturn (and they had a couple of leakier games against Croatia). But Wales had a few moments of luck here and there, and they were played off the park in Budapest, and we lucky to escape a home match against Azerbaijan with all there points. |
