    Keane is still our best striker by a mile, even at his age. He could well do what Totti has done and play until he’s 40. Let’s face it, we need him. Look at Doyle, people barely know where he plays now, not to mention he couldn’t even start for Wolves last seas on. Then we’ve Long, God knows the last time he even scored a goal. After that there’s a few more jokers such as Walters, Sammon and Cox. And yet no room for Sheridan. Baffling!

    I moved to Germany in the summer and I’m going to the match on Tuesday. Can’t wait for it. Hopefully the lads can get a result, it will be tough but Germany are not up to speed yet after their WC win so no reason we can’t go out and do a job

    I’d be fearful of a German backlash…!! If we could sneak a draw it’d be great.

    I fear it will be the same as last time if we have ward on the pitch as a full back and mcgeady lacking the defensive capabilitirs to save his arse. . People looking for solace in the germans other games are stretching credulity. The scots had a tricky pacy striker who did the damage and the poles had a similar threat with the quality of lewandoski. I hope i am very wrong and lads stand up and play at a level they have not shown thus far .

    Of course we wont have exactly the same scenario as at lansdowne 2 years ago but i think we will have enough of it to be worried against an angry german outfit.
