Eamon Dunphy column: Bad call at Molineux could have a major impact on top and bottom in PL
Soccer
Think of the potential consequences of that call. Wolves were denied a point that might keep them up at the end of the season, Manchester City got two extra points that might win them the title. It's simply not good enough that these massive mistakes are made.

Eamon Dunphy column: Hallgrimsson is learning there's no quick fix for Ireland's ills
Eamon Dunphy
I do think Evan Ferguson looked fed up on the bench after being taken off. He is going to be a huge player for Ireland but he needs games at Brighton, and he needs a goal to get his confidence back.

Eamon Dunphy column: Robbie Brady renaissance can be the spur Ireland need to drive on
Sport Opinion
Robbie Brady came through the Manchester United academy, and it was always obvious why they'd snapped him up. Technically, he was at a level unmatched by few Irish players in recent times

Eamon Dunphy column: Robbie Brady turns back the clock to seal a memorable win for Ireland
Republic of Ireland football team
In the first half, Ireland stank the place out. One of the most inept and embarrassing halves of football I've ever seen from an Irish team. But they were a different outfit after the break. They looked and played like an Irish team.

Eamon Dunphy column: We need to remind ourselves that players like Evan Ferguson are young and will kick on
Sport Opinion
Young players came into a struggling team, and one going through massive transition. Both the players and the management were under massive pressure in game after game. That strain takes its toll.

Eamon Dunphy column: Manchester United getting rid of Ten Hag won't stop their slide
Eamon Dunphy
Manchester United have United have Porto away in the Europa League and then a tough trip away to Aston Villa before the international break. They mightn't get anything out of either of those games. Ten Hag could be out of the door before November.

Eamon Dunphy column: Missing out on Brexit fund deadline shows FAI is a laughing stock
Sport Opinion
"If the FAI overlook Sarah Keane for a second time, it will be madness. She is capable and tough and knows how to deal with government. She would whip a sorry organisation into shape."

Eamon Dunphy column: No other country in Europe would put up with Heimir Hallgrimsson's attitude
Sport Opinion
Troy Parrott didn't get a single minute over Ireland's first two games under Hallgrímsson. Parrott scored four goals for AZ Alkmaar last Saturday. Has Hallgrímsson ever watched him play?

Eamon Dunphy column: This is the worst Ireland set-up in the history of the game and the manager has to go, already
Republic of Ireland national football team
"We need to blame the administration. And we need to get rid of them. First, though, we need to get rid of the manager."

Eamon Dunphy column: Why has the Ireland manager become the Invisible Man?
Sport Opinion
All of this nonsense around the manager sums up Ireland's dire situation. I don't think any serious football nation in Europe would put up with it.

Eamon Dunphy column: Declan Rice humiliated Ireland and that's on Martin O'Neill and the FAI
Republic of Ireland national football team
Only for Caoimhin Kelleher, England would have won 5-0 or 6-0. They have a proper manager in Lee Carsley, we have a dentist that nobody had heard of four months ago. Where are we going?

Eamon Dunphy column: Slot likely to have a baptism of fire as Liverpool manager
Sport Opinion
It looks like Slot favours a more patient, passing game. I'm not convinced that's a good idea. Look at Liverpool's attacking players like Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz. They are at their best when released by quick early balls.

Eamon Dunphy column: FAI manager mess a real kick in the teeth
Sport Opinion
Maybe his appointment as Ireland boss explains the issue with waiting lists for dentists. All of the dentists are off pretending to be football managers.

Eamon Dunphy column: England can make most of poor Euros
Sport Opinion
Players are tired - both physically and mentally. The best players have been defenders, even 41-year-old Pepe was able to leave his mark. That tells me that it's a far from vintage tournament.
