    * game so far for the neutral I'd imagine. To be honest I am slightly disappointed. We've defended well but going forward we have been poor.

    I actually think all the Belgian players hate the manager that's why they never look arsed

    I think that might have been the plan, defend well and try to nick something on the break. Although they've done themselves no favours by being poor in possession. I think they will be better in the second half. Surely they will.

    You would actually think this was the case, there's a lot of quality in that side but so far they aint performing.

    Belgian players play like they're trying to put themselves on show for their next 60 million quid, 150k a week move.

    They really are not a 'team'.

    I wouldn't bet on it. Their passing was rubbish in the game against Sweden as well.

    What you're saying about Ireland is fair, but not sure why you think Belgium have been worth watching to be honest. They are * going forward. Don't really look like scoring.

    If we improve even slightly in the next half I think we might actually sneak this.

    Courtois, Alderweireld, Hazard and De Bruyne - on their game they are among the best in Europe in their respective positions. Vertonghen, Dembele and Carrasco are all fantastic talents as well.

    They really should be a far better team than they are. The manager has to be the problem.

    At least Belgium are getting the ball down and trying to create. It's not easy when you're faced with a packed defence, something Celtic fans should be able to identify with.

    You're right though, Ireland do have a chance of sneaking a win here if they show a bit more composure on the break. Belgium have nearly sold the jerseys a couple of times in defence.

    EDIT: Ok, they don't have a chance of winning now.
