Williams also at fault for trying to play the ball after Hennessy's stupid throw out
Total arsehole.
agree.
plus ramsey was piss poor
Fancy seeing Eric on a “blame” thread :shrug:
You sound like the English media lads, looking to blame and hang people.
It was a poor throw and could have been avoided but Henessy has played his part the last 3 years. You’d do well to remember that.
The fact that we couldnt create a chance in 90 minutes suggest we werent good enough as a team.
We are out and deserve to be out.
The only thin Williams is good at is heading the ball straight up in the air!
We cannot say together stronger for a number of years then as soon as we lose look for someone to blame.
We lost tonight, we lost together and we will come back together.
Agreed. We didn't lose because of Hennessey, or Ashley Williams, or Allen being taken off, or Coleman. We had the opportunities to have won the group before.
Tonight was the first time in the group that we went behind. We didn't know how to deal with it until late on. It's all about learning together.
Agreed with your assessment about the ref and thug football.
Interesting thought about sitting back and trying to hit them on the break, giving more of a stalemate. We know we prefer playing teams that will have a go at us so we can hit them with pace, but when we have to break down a brick wall we struggle as we haven't quite got enough quality. I'm not sure Ireland would have decided to have a go at us for prolonged periods, their game plan involved us pushing forward. Had we decided to do the same, it could have made for a boring stalemate and little action, with neither side committing much in attack.
No point blaming individuals , we knew how they would play and we didn't do enough to win on the night, personally don't think Ireland deserved the win but took the one chance that came their way and like in the semi final of the Euros last year , once Wales fell behind didn't gave the guile or ability to get a goal !
I agree, no point dwelling but Hennessey was definitely at fault there. Time for Danny Ward to have a good go in a few friendlies now for me.
Not hennesey fault we were playing the ball short all the time because didn't have a target. When you are doing it everytime you have to expect pressure and Williams is there because he can deal with the ball.
Most of the time we retained the ball well . We were just unlucky they took their one chance
Ward is Liverpool's third choice keeper until he gets regular first team football he cannot be considered Wales's no 1!
Last night wasn’t the reason we failed to qualify. It was conceding an 85th minute equaliser at home, and a 73rd minute equaliser away against Serbia, conceding a 57th minute equaliser home to Georgia and not beating Austria away after leading twice. Anyone who thought we’d qualify after 5 draws was living in cloud cuckoo land. To be fair, 5 draws is NOT qualifying form, and if it was someone else we’d be saying they didn’t deserve to go through.
Anyway, on the bright side, anyone who wants a ticket for the next qualifiers will be able to get them. (How many British Lions Tops were there in the ground yesterday?)
It was stupid but why did Williams momentarily stop trying? He just went to sleep and stopped. And by the time he woke up again, it was too late.
We gave them that goal. And what was worse, as that Ireland are a rubbish team - really poor.
Shame on us for not being able to beat them.
