Trappish!!!

So let me get this right, last night we had:

A reserve championship centre half at right back? McShame
A right back at left back? Kelly
Our best player and left winger starting in central midfield? McClean
A striker on the wing? Cox, then midfield, then up front??
McGeady up front?
An MLS centre half now looking to be our first preference? O'Dear
Striker Andy Keough came onto the wing to replace McClean?

All whilst not utilising the opportunity to blood new centre back options which we desperately need, ignored Ciaran Clark, Alex Pearce, Richard Keogh!! We all know Trap will just go straight back to his tried and failed formations and limited selection policies. This guy truely is woodworm to the future of irish football, we cannot entertain allowing this clown two more years. He's alienated players and fans alike and the mish mash formation from last night show nothing has changed as this manager neither knows or cares what positions our players are best suited are suited too nor even who our best players are!

Where next? Westwood up front? Robbie Keane at centre back? Daft suggestions I know but so is the fact we sit back and pay this man a small fortune to 'manage' our nations football team whilst paying zero attention to his players day jobs and correct positions??? Shortsighted arrogance on his behalf, only 100 fans travelled to see the lads last night which is ominous, prepare for one of the lowest attended campaigns in irish history to come as literally every fan I know have thrown in the towel on Crappatoni and rightly so!!

And i quote El Mungo " his obsession with Green,McShane,Keogh etc"

The players that helped you get to Poland/Ukraine.

See what i did there. Skelped 2 : Skelp harder

Green played in one qualifier, the rest were friendly's. McShane started not one qualifier and Keogh came off the bench once. Hardly the players that got us there. I can help but pwn on a daily basis. Its what I do.

Sorry for not knowing the in and outs of Traps team selections. But answer me this , if the stats you said are true , then why are you worried if Trap is going to pick them? It doesnt sound like they are regulars ffs , so isnt your point and rants at trap , well , kinda pointless?

Counter-pwn my good man

Because the likes of McCarthy will be shipped back out of the line up to make way to partner Whelan who shouldnt be starting. If O Shea or Dunne get injured then McShane and O Dea will start. And when we need to make an impact if being beat, who does trap always bring on over more talented players? Keogh, Green etc That right there is my worry.

Talented individuals doesnt mean they are right for the job at hand. Isnt McClean in the squad? Would make a great impact sub if things are going pear-shaped.

He would make a good starter too but the problem is the likes of Keogh and Cox. If they are on the bench they will be put on ahead of him. FFS cox even starts ahead of him sometimes on the left wing. Can you see how stupid that is. If that was Nigel Nose NI and their 50 fans would be boycotting Windsor.'We want Nigel out, We want Nigel out' Remember?

Yes i remember the we want Nigel out but there was no boycotting of games - we all still went like proper supporters would.

You have went on about certain players not being good enough, but now you are saying they are fringe players? They still contributed more than the likes of mcclean, so thats why he stuck with them.

I do have to admit, i think traps time is up - he has lost the fans and is losing the players, only one outcome.
