This Coman looks a player

Think that O'Neill is more into damage control now.

Yep, been impressed with his pace and movement.

It was mentioned in the first half that France were making it easy for the Irish defence by attacking too centrally - and Coman gave the French the width on the right that has stretched them.

Ireland have not regrouped after conceding the equaliser.

Should have been 3.

Can see Smalling being red carded if we get through, he cant help but wrestle the opposition when they get the better of him

Gignac should have wrapped things up there.

Gignac can not finish.

Gignac can't complain about the quality of the chances he's been presented with.

Gignac is crap

Gignac is making sure the manager doesn't pick him for the next game.

I've always rated him. There's not a team in the world that he wouldn't improve. Only real flaw I can see is a tendency to ball-watch when defending. And he's still young, so he'll knock that off.

Unless you are Irish or English I suppose I think it's better for the largely defensive tournament that a flair side gets to the latter stages

gignac has had his chances...

Kitchen sink time Ireland. Losing 3-1 doesn't matter. Take a risk.

I wonder what Platini makes of the current French number 10 ??

Irish just throwing themselves down in the box now.

Irelands strategy from the first minute appears to have been to run into the box and then hit the deck.

Koeman is shite

Exactly right ... Imagine Italy , Wales plus the two Irelands plus a few other average teams making up the last 8

That last one from Long was embarrassing.

Hoolahan's been awful - all he does is give it away.

The dream is over for Jack Charlton's Ireland.

Hoolahan has been awful since coming on. Not got up to pace at all.

too much faffing about there...
