maqroll Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 WTF was Van Persie thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Robin Van Persie scoring an own goal so that the Netherlands trail 0-3 at home in a game they really needed to win is probably going to be their wally with a brolly moment, isn't it?

VillaChris Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Turkey got the 3rd best place team spot, how the heck did they swindle that one, I swear they only had 5 points a few games back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Ukraine, Denmark, Sweden and Bosnia look like being seededDont fancy any of them if honest as all have players that can destroy usEdit: Just saw that coefficient was up until June and Sweden got 2 bad defeats since then Edited October 13, 2015 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 actually looks like Hungary instead of Danes will be seeded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corcaigh Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) They are all beatable over 2 legs. We may not have the sprinkling of stardust that Bosnia or Sweden have, but they have poor enough teams beside Dzeko/Ibra. Hungary are definitely beatable, wouldn't fancy going to Kiev in the winter time.Those teams are far preferable to Holland, Turkey or Croatia.

Zatman Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Ukraine could have beat Spain 4 or 5-1 last night De Gea was that good. Bosnia also have Pjanic who is better than anything in Ireland midfield. All except Hungary are better teams than Poland and with this clown in charge I dont think we be going to France Dont think many other managers drops his best players after beating world champions and ruin disruption of the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Only positive is Ireland have goals in them...you've scored in Germany and Poland so capable of getting an away goal or two. Likes of Bosnia concede plenty of goals themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 yes but Long and Walters who got the goals are probably going to be out for 1st game at least in Walters case and doubt Hoolahan will get a start unless an injury crisiis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrissmith921 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Bosnia look good and have come into form. I think the best of those sides in the pools, but Ireland are good enough to go toe to toe with any of those, they just need to perform out of Dublin too.

El Zen Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Hungary is the only possible outcome of the draw for Norway that isn't a complete disaster for me. We've never even scored a goal against Ukraine so they just don't suit us very well. Sweden would be too tense because of the rivalry. Worst of all would be Bosnia, my country-in-law, as my father in law (who really isn't into football at all) would give me all kinds of crap if we lose.

Czechlad Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 All 3 of the seeded playoff nations are very much beatable by any of the non-seeded nations. It's honestly a huge toss up for me who advances. All the nations are pretty level in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 nightmare draw for Ireland though it allows our manager to play shit tactics and not play our best players as usualthis will probably be end for Ireland and hopefully for the bellend of a manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I would assume its the second. Could have been worse for Ireland couldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corcaigh Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 B&H is a tricky draw, hopefully we can squeeze a trademark 1-1 victory over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
