The big questions has to be... How the feck did Ireland make it and better teams like Turkey, Switzerland and Belgium not..

There team is full of bottom half PL players + NPC players.. Doyle, Andrews, Ward, McGeady, Keane, Given and Dunne or play for bottom 5 PL or worse clubs.. O'Shea, Duff and Whelan are the other 3 and they're hardly top players..

In comparison to Belgium who have Hazard, Felleini, Lukaku, Kompany, Witsel, Dembele, Vermaelen, Vertonghen.. 6 of which play CL football and the others being better players for their respective clubs..

Ireland quality wise are probably the worst team in the competition.. Poland, Ukraine, Czech and Greece are also weak but at least these teams have a few quality individual players.. Ireland have none anymore

Take a look at their qualifying group;

Russia

Ireland

Armenia

Slovakia

Macedonia

Andorra

And then when they finished 'top of the rest' after Russia topped the group they got fooking Estonia in the playoffs. Estonia!

How did they get there? Pure luck of the draw (twice!)
