A collection of quotes from fans of the Republic Of Ireland on the performances of Enda Stevens and John Egan against Switzerland
“Stevens turning into a fine footballer.”
“I thiught Stevens was one of the best of a bad bunch? He was involved all the time and didn’t shy from the ball unlike that cretin Hendrick”
“Agree no problems with his display”
“Started poorly playing in an unfamiliar position yet grew more solid as game passed by”
“I didnt think Stevens did too badly at all tbh.Lost the ball a lot but did well on a few occasions to recover it”
“Stuck to his task well and tried to get Ireland motoring”
“Solid defensively, but we have yet to see him sparkle in an Ireland shirt.”
“poor with the ball before moving back to left back where he looked much happier driving forward in the second half.”
“pathetic tonight”
“I thought Stevens was good in the first half and did okay in the second, far from pathetic.”
“Stevens needed to come off Lichtsteiner to experienced for him”
“Stevens was awful.”
“Stevens worries me”
“LWB is definitely his best position. There are still questions about his suitability though”
“crazy to think we have two top class wingbacks excelling in the premier league in Doherty and Stevens, and when we finally employ a system that uses wingbacks, we use neither in those positions”
“Distribution could have been better but rallied after a slow start”
“Made a few decent clearing headers but his distribution was poor as he was guilty of a few poor long balls forward.”
“Kicked about 4 long balls to nobody”
“Egan loves a stupid foul”
“I feel sorry for Randolph, Egan, Duffy and the lads up front! What we have on the wings and and in the middle of the park is absolutely useless!
“He made a number of vital interventions and put in an all-around excellent display.It’s mad to think he wasn’t in the team until the last game. He brings a new found calmness to the Ireland backline. Absolutely superb”
“John Egan was everywhere, solid performance”
“Probably our best player”
“Egan was a positive”
“Egan promising”
“Very solid display”
“Good performance”
