Kenny needs to be given more time, it's clear he needs better players, but if the second half performance can be carried over to the next game then no reason why a rare multi goal victory cannot be achieved, especially given that Luxembourg rarely keep 11 players on the field for a whole game!

Yeah,I just checked the last few games... 4 reds in 6 games?
Must have some serious hotheads! I'd say get McClean on the pitch to wind them up and watch them pick up the cards!!
3-4-1-2 with a baby in goals. Hopefully the lad does well but he can't do any worse than travers did to be fair.
Every Ireland line up I see these days has me thinking "Who?" at least once or twice and going on a Wiki-dive.
Yup, RTE said this too.
Fingers crossed for him!
Been a bit sloppy so far
Great play... Could have been 1 nil
Passing has been sloppy, Luxembourg pressing quite well to be fair.
Im saying that with about 7 of their line up.
There were so many great Irish and Scottish names growing up, it seems ages since either country produced any top class players.
Feel sorry for Kenny to agree, the quality of squad he has inherited is so poor.
Browne in particular has been completely unimpressive!
Browne in particular has been completely unimpressive!
Collins playing quite well up front, who exactly is he?
Plays for Luton, not exactly a prolific goalscorer.
Jeepers, Luton Town is that the best we can muster up nowadays..
Scotland have a handful of quality to decent PL players. Great full backs in Robertson and Tierney. McTominay, McGinn, Armstrong, Adams.
We have Coleman who is coming to the end and Doherty. Connolly, at a stretch. Such a poor squad.
Well done keeper that was heart stopping
At the risk of jinxing him, Bazunu has done well so far. Looks very confident.
Almost the best goal ever there.
Might knick a goal.
Think he should have tipped it over rather than back in to play, but great reactions all the same
More of the same that was.
Some nice passes and some awful giving the ball away. This is a game at our level and we again don't look like scoring in a month of Sundays. Its depressing.
The "hasn't got the players" line isn't acceptable against Luxembourg either. They aren't prime Spain.
We are lost at sea.

Played better, much better against Serbia.
An awful first half.
An awful first half.
You know it's bad when the punditry at half time is about Bazuna doing some basic stuff.
Serbia didn't sit in and play on the counter. It's a different proposition altogether as we're expected to dominate the play.
Still we need to hang on to the ball and start moving it quicker.
That's much better.
Brady should have hit that.
It was a very tight angle
I thought Clark was 24/25 for some reason, he's 31 .
.There's more talk of the coat than any of the players on rte
That was a chance
We’re crying out for a Wes Hoolahan type. Someone with just an ounce of quality in the final third.
God I miss Robbie Keane. How did this team turn to shit. We weren’t amazing before but we could go head to head with Spain and France. These feckers can’t even beat Serbia and struggle with Lux atm.
This is not good.
Yeahhhh, they're looking more likely to score.
We're getting tired now it seems.
This is so sloppy.
They are breaking through the press so easily.

Are you talking about the 2002 team?
Feck! That would have been amazing
