Whatever happened to that O'Halloran lad who used to be at Villa? He looked decent the one time I saw him.

McGeady before Andy Reid. He's a better player.
Lee Carsley can take a hike. I think the lads we have playing at the moment are about as effective as the guy who single-handedly knocked us out of Euro 2000.
We played pretty good football under Captain Fantastic.
Actually seem like halcyon days now, even if we did screw up whenever it came to the crunch. The Euro 2000 qualifiers were good craic.
I remember agreeing with me dad at that time that it was the worst squad of players we'd had in a long time. Little did we know how bad it would get...
See, we have tons of players at a certain level nowadays: just below being really good, effective top-level players. They all gather at that point. I'm sure the ascendancy of the English game with all the imports has something to do with it, restricting chances to improve and gain experience. You know, Liverpool can send a whole internationally-recruited team of guys nobody has ever heard of to play in Dunmanway. The hoarding of players is a problem on two fronts - making it harder to break through at the top teams and lowering the standard elsewhere, so that good performances give a false impression.
it was a group effort not getting to euro 2000 and Carsley didn't mature as a player until he joined Everton, David Moyes has that effect on players. McGeady has no work rate and runs blindly into corners. he has liminted vision to pick a pass dwells on the ball to long takes too many touches and can't cross a ball to save his fucking life.
We could have got any of these teams anyway.
Can't see us beating anyone of any quality over two legs.
I was joking a little bit about Euro 2000.
I'm not a Carsley fan at all though. I don't think he brings a lot to a team.
McGeady has flaws galore but I don't think you can seriously say Andy Reid's workrate gives him the nod over Aido. Like, it's Andy Reid, who recently was about 2 stone overweight.
Oh I Fucking hate everything about Swiss Football.
Insert Kevin Keegan style rant here
Are away goals even counted in this?
