    Okay here we go again, my prediction is

    Ireland 0
    Germany 2

    My reasoning being that Irelands defence won't be able to stop Ballack, Klose and Schneider.

    Excuse me while I get my hard-hat...

    Mike.

    From what i`ve seen of german football, Ballack seems to be the guy for the germans. They depend a lot on balls from ballack and service from the wings.

    But i fancy our lads to beat them 2-1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,228 ✭✭✭Acidflash


    i'll say another 1-1 draw


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭mise


    ahh u got there before me, Ireland 2 - 1 methinks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,922 ✭✭✭Dave


    I'd have to say 2-1 to Ireland too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,196 ✭✭✭Littletinyman


    I reckon 2-1 to Germany.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 235 ✭✭Yerac


    Yeah I'd go along with 2-1 to the Ireland,2-1 to the IRELAND,2-1 to the IREEEEEEELAND...... etc

    As long as our lads stop crosses I can't see the German's being as much a handful as Cameroon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭PiE


    Germany's attack is still crap regardless of the Saudi game. Klose who?

    1-1 or 2-1 to Ireland. Boring game.

    1-1 or 2-1 to Ireland. Boring game.

    3 - 1 Ireland

    Duff runs the field and crosses for Keane 1-0

    Reid free kick of the wall and Matty Holland drives [again] to put Ireland 2-0 up ...... before half time

    a german scores... after half time

    Quinn on for Keane... heads from a reid corner at the end after german pressure..



    :D

    1-0 to Germany.

    I was wrong the last time, so I'm hoping for the same again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 294 ✭✭PyjamaMan


    2:1 to ireland or 2:1 to germany its gonna be a tit for tat game i recon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 483 ✭✭NeRb666


    If Harte is playing- Germany 3 Ireland 1

    Drop Harte, play any old donkey in his place - Germany 0 Ireland 1

    Don't worry Keane will look after him...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    What about playing Gary Kelly left back, Steve Finnan at right back. With Kilbane left wing and Mc Ateer at right.

    What do u think?

    How about we sell Kilbane and Harte to a chinese take away, stick Duff on the left, Morrison and Keane up fron, Cunningham and Breen centre half, Staunton left back.....:)

    2-1 to ireland assume germany score the first goal.

    If ireland score first I dont know what will happen tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭Kim Tae-Woo


    The Germans are big, strong and tactical but the whole team are not fully fit.

    If Holland, Reid, Keane, and Duff run with good One 2 comvbinations it will cause Germany problems.

    Germany's strikers are in top form

    I say

    Ireland 2 Germany 3

    This will be a great game unless both sides go defensive and nervous.

    Germany Cemroon may be the most important match of the group for Ireland.

    So I hope Ireland take control and secure the win instead of expecting to win on points.

    2:1 to ireland!!!
    GO ON THE BOYS IN GREEN

    I'm conservatively predicting a one-nil victory for Ireland.

    I doubt very much that we'll lose, to be honest.


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 15,001 ✭✭✭✭Pepe LeFrits


    Hard to see, the future is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭Kim Tae-Woo


    drop Mc Ateer and Harte because they are not fit.

    you need speed to beat Germany.

    Use Finnan and Clinton Morrison and Keane

    in a 3 up front combo

    use a 3-4-3 formation


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭Kim Tae-Woo


    This Ireland Germnay will be a great game.

    Also Argentina/Engalnd

    I see Veron and Cavellaero was stirring the sh1t

    they were talking about taking revenge for lost family during the falklands.

    also Veron doesn't like England thinks Italy was a nicer place.

    Maybe he went to Man united to spy on England?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 897 ✭✭✭Greenbean


    Another optomistic prediction, 3-2 comforably to Ireland (Germany come back towards end).

    Failing that we get slaughtered 4-2.

    Yes I know I cheat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,081 ✭✭✭BKtje


    1-1


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 936 ✭✭✭FreaK_BrutheR


    2-0 TO IRELAND


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox


    Ireland 3-0
    scorers: Keane(2), Holland


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,136 ✭✭✭Bob the Unlucky Octopus


    My money is on Ireland to take the lead, and for the Germans to come back and steal the game 2-1. Say what you will about their geriatric squad, they just don't know how to say die. We'll see tomorrow though.

    Except when they're at home to England :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 382 ✭✭G


    2-0 Ireland!!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,468 ✭✭✭Lex_Diamonds


    Kudos to B-K-DzR, and Acid Flash :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,839 ✭✭✭bubbles


    I predict a 1-1 draw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,081 ✭✭✭BKtje


    thats two 1-1 guesses i got right :p

    i think ill just keep guessing 1-1 ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,446 ✭✭✭bugler


    Oh bubbles! You are the living end!

    I was mouthing about a 'score draw' all week, for anyone who'd listen, no really :)

    Anyway, some points to note on the match: Harte is dire. His only plus point is his usefulness at set-pieces. He can't defend.

    Germany are really bad. Cameroon should beat them. Some of the players they have on wouldn't have got into a West Germany 50 man squad in the past, never mind the unified nation's squad. Where art thou Beckenbauer with your predictions of football world dominance once the wall came down?

    There is alot to be said for having a big donkey like Quinn on the field. Yes he concedes frees left right and centre due to his gangliness and lack of co-ordination, but look at our goal..

    I'm not sure how much more Gary Kelly has to offer Ireland. Kilbane, in contrast to his game against Cameroon, was poor. I'd be in favour of bringing in Reid to the midfield in some position. It may involve juggling Harte around (at least at left mid he couldn't **** up TOO badly with severe consequences).
