Still, in the first half Ireland were better than united in any half this season

Come on man! No need to try and incite us Irish fans.
You've no idea how bad we are just now. Until the penalty this was one of our better performances in recent years.
Automatic promotion back to top group.
He’s the same player.
Huh!?
To concede 3 quick goals with the defence all over the place feels like a bit of a collapse. It can happen. No biggie.
He’s better
He’s honestly not. But okay.
They go back to the top tier, this is division B. Arguably England are a level below where they should be and Ireland are perhaps a level above our talent pool.
Feck off Gallagher.
Feel sorry for Ireland as their game plan was working. That's just football.
Yep, hopefully it'll change now ten hag has leftRubbish
Are you on a personal mission to wind people up?
Yep, Home and Away, but we didn't deserve to beat them at home.

Have you never seen him post before?
Haha I trusted that was tongue in cheek enough to not annoy anyone.
Bad form nontheless.
Shame what's happened to Irish football the past decade or so. Absolute state.
His performances in Spain and from what I’ve seen these past two England games look far better IMO
He was joking.
Madueke is so close to being a top player.
Yeah, and no obvious way back.
Haaland hattrick
His decision making, selfishness and his shooting needs to improve.
He’s played really well for England this week. Being much more selfless and going down both sides, looking for the cutback. Much better than he has for Chelsea I believe since the Wolves game.
He has all the tools.
Madueke stands out as not being good enough
Absolutely not!Are you on a personal mission to wind people up?
They have clearly collapsed though and Gallagher looks better under the tutorship of D. Simeone.
Not sure what’s so controversial!
It's been a mad decline and it's sad if it's terminal like you said.
I grew up with Ireland having a squad mostly filled with good PL players and then the odd elite world class talent in amongst them. Crazy to see the state of Irish squads now.
Unusual
Players I have never heard of frequently pop up in Irish squads.
Frustrating how poor Irish football has become when we are thriving in so many other sporting disciplines at the world stage.
Against a very poor side.
As someone who has watched pretty much every minute of his games since 2021, he’s the same player. He’s done nothing in Spain he wasn’t doing regularly at Chelsea.
Maybe the two things are connected, we have limited resources. That and football is not as well run at junior level as GAA or Rugby, the two main direct competitors.
Has a solid shot at being top scorer in Nations League for the 3rd time in a row (shared it with Ferran Torres and Lukaku in 20-21)
Ronaldo would need 3 goals tomorrow to get past him.
He’s definitely improved since making the step up
Nusa, 5-0
Bowen scores with his first touch of the ball. 4-0.
