He did really well last night as it happens, real captains performance. Ireland were outdone by fatigue and a referee determined to make sure Ronaldo was the headline.
Ref was a digrace. Could have sent Ronaldo off and bottled an Ireland pen that would have made it 2 nil. Waited for Ronaldo to score the winner way over injury time. Coleman played very well all night.
 
Seems like he had a very solid game last night. I do worry about his ability to play 3 matches in 6 or 7 days at this stage of his career, but that's the scheduling more than anything. I don't agree with these triple headers at all. Especially the fact some countries are forced to fill a gap with a meaningless friendly.
 

Don't mean this in a disrespectful way but they aren't Irish players to lose mate. Serious question, would you rather the Irish team be full of Irish players but not that good or littered with Irish/English and he half decent?
I don’t think you mean to be disrespectful, but your comment is a bit ignorant.
I believe both players played for Ireland teams at youth level.
Nationality is not straight forward. Country of birth, where you grew up, where you’ve lived a long time, where you are proud of, where your parents came from … can all play a part.
In football, it’s also about where is your best chance of success.
Grealish and Rice both chose England. Good luck to them, but anyone who saw the excitement of the Jack charlton Era would take a few anglo Irish players of quality over some in the squad now.
