Neither Ramsey or Bale look really up for this. Hope we see a more determined effort in the second half.

Having to break down a defence and we struggle.
Funny thing is with them now attacking maybe Bale may get a break.

Not enough and with Bale out of the Serbia game we are heading out. A word on Ireland. They are utter shit.
Credit to O'Neill he gets the best out of a limited bunch, they are dreadful to watch though. Can't help but think they were there for the taking today, but we created so littleQuote:

We really struggle to create when teams sit in, funnily enough our best effort came when Ireland went forward more and Bale was very unlucky not to find the top corner.
4 draws now, think we quickly need to adapt our play when teams show us respect.
Yes he does well with a bang average groupof players but for the home teamthey were very negative and offered nothing until Taylor was sent off.Quote:

Ireland should be ashamed though. At home and they were treating it as though they were a plucky non league side who have just drawn man u in the fa cup
that georgia game ****ed us
Let's be honest we were absolutely crap this evening. Hope Coleman is ok after that dreadful tackle from Taylor.
Joe Allen about the only decent player for us, Bale was nowhere near the final third when we were attacking most of the time, don't have a clue who's decision that was.
I didn't understand our tactics. Bale was so deep.Ramsey was poor. Ireland were dismal. They were incredibly negative.
Amazing how we have one of the best players in the world playing 50 yards behind Vokes or Robson-Kanu. ****ing shambles.Quote:

While we may have needed to win before the game kicked off this will be one of those times where what counts as a good result changes due to in-game activity. Maybe we'll ask what might have been if Bale's 80th minute strike had found the back of the net but hopefully we've now used up all our bad luck and can go on a run in the second half of this group.
