I thought Walter's back headers were pretty good (I mean off the back of his head).

Hmmm didn't Hughes insist on playin that Jamie Mackie at QPR, des[ite all the signings they made in the summer? Mackie is a poor mans Jon Walters......so expect another 90+ games on the bounce from Goooaaarrrrn Jon

Both ineffective?
They helped make England look pretty poor.

Hope Hughes was watching tonight and first job is to get Walters on the transfer list - might be a couple of div 2 teams interested - totally ineffective First job is to work out who wants to stay and go from there. He needs 100% backing in the dressing room

Shame it isn't the other way round really. I'd rather see an inconsistent usually crap lazy Jon Walters who we knew could be a world beater on his day, than a consistently crap but always running Jon Walters who we knew would miss the next open goal/penalty.

Hope Hughes doesn't play Walters every week, i've got a good feeling he won't.

Maybe Sparky can give him a few striker tips to go with Jon's natural capacity for aaard work? Get him to play in 'semi-final' mode all the time? Now that would be good.

Was commented by Ståle Solbakken on Norwegian TV how ROI lost their shape after the substitutions! (Whelan and Walters taken off)

Hope Hughes was watching tonight and first job is to get Walters on the transfer list - might be a couple of div 2 teams interested - totally ineffective I find this really unfair. He played at Wembley against the best England had to offer and did a job where every time Ireland had the ball he had to link up with the forwards and every time England had the ball he had to fill the gaps. As for 'totally ineffective', was he it 'totally ineffective' when he linked up with Robbie and laid it off to Coleman for the cross in the 12th minute? I don't think Jon had a rip roarer last night but I believe he did exactly what his manager asked him to do. That's why this pro will always get on a team sheet when a tought task is ahead.

He's an engine with little quality is SJW! However bad he may be in certain positions (namely on the wing) you cannot deny he puts at least 110% every single minute he is on that pitch both for club and country! I wouldn't sell him just yet but I don't think he is perhaps good enough to warrant a start in first XI.

Apparently Fulham are interested. Rodallega involved in a potential move too, would be glad to see it happen in all honesty.

Laid it off? He just passed it to the nearest player. He was heading in the wrong direction. Walters is not good enough for the prem. If he is so good why did no other prem team snap him up before us? That says it all.

Cannot fault his dedication, hard work and attitude, he just needs to play in the right position, square pegs and all that.

He s a good lad. Used as a squad player, 20 games a season, fresher legs. Probably still get 8 or 10 goals? Only if he takes penalties!

You don't half talk some shit, I take it Rickie Lambert isn't good enough for the Prem because nobody tried to sign him when he was in League 1?

Walters-our top scorer. Says it all! I am not actually surprised, big, powerful, pacey and direct player who charges at a defence, isn't scared at all to go for it, has a monster of a right boot. Seriously, really think Sparky can turn this lad into a very, very good player.
