The academy Evan came out of is a great academy that play great football. They compete against top pro clubs in Europe at their age groups. The academy tournament they have brings the best teams. Barca, Atletico etc and Kevins often beat them. They have produced Irelands best players going right...
It made national news here and the media was generally in uproar about it and dug his club Bohs out of it.
It was dangerous and he was too young etc.
The lads on his team were laughing at the questions and talking about him bullying them in training and manhandling their big centre halves.
It...
I like Armstrong but I don't think he and Idah really ever make elite level football. I do think Zefi,Melia, Doherty etc have a chance but no harm at all producing lads who have a shot at least. Both will make solid careers though hopefully. With England winning U21's hard to see us snatching...
I really really dislike Robbie too.
I think if he stays relatively fit throughout his career he will thank god.
Funnily enough Connolly is starting to put some performances together and could have a decent year this year.
If we get Melia through quickly and I suspect he will make an early prem...
I have said the same multiple times. Brighton have managed it well but I would still have wanted Evan to start the next 2-3
It probably shows why Brighton are falling short this year too. Wellbeck is a lower bottom half player in a top half team
Fact is a team good enough to beat Spurs was on...
I am more concerned about Welbeck than looking for Fergsuon to shoot the lights out tbh. I really have never rated him. I just want "big 6" tears with Brighton in CL 🤣
Ohh f*** me what a goal ffs
Yeah I wouldn't worry much at all. 95% Evan just signs a big contract in the summer. Brighton will have a good plan for him and by all accounts he is going nowhere just yet.
My evidence is I know people in Irish football. Was told the Bayern stuff is true so just relayed. Was more of a "wow he...
Unlucky not to grab a point in the end.
Good performance. Pity we didn't change sooner and leave Evan on. The chances that came you fancy he might take the one chance he gets.
That was Evan at 14 yeah. He was i volved in the goal too lovely stepover for a player who was a trialist whos name escapes me
We are talking about chants for the upcoming quals. We dont have many decent ones
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

It was national news here and Bohs were harshly criticised for playing him by a lot of people at the time. A lot of the ones who generally have no time for Irish football were particularly mad.
"Real" football fans in Ireland already knew they had a wonderkid so were excited to see him.
Chelsea were interested in Evan. All the top clubs were. Liverpool is always mentioned as the main one though. Would have been a terrible move either way
Sinn Fein... the most awful pol party on planet earth. Don't get me started on them wasters.
I don't see it the same way as you though with regards football. I just think it is a more tribalistic sport.
Hence why you can have fans not liking the England team and supporting some random English...
Massively dissipated.
And honestly the feelings towards English teams vary from sport to sport, it is not uniform.
The English Rugby team has massive massive respect here as do its fans.
It is the men's football team that has the least support but people have even softened to the Southgate...
Yep. But his selections don't even match up to his philosophy. Building up from the back he kept duffy in for a time and McClean. Lots of the build up is wide, McClean.. awful in possession.
Midfielders that do not fit the profile of the system. Like it is baffling.
Smallbone will work out...
England u21 manager. Has a good rep as a coach in that system.
I love Kelleher. We have 3 prem gk's so fine there for a decade. Manager is the problem at this stage. We do actually have some nice players now. Frustration is building. Selections are very poor. Tactically inept.
