Eamon Dunphy & John Giles profile on Jack Charlton

[@marktlog]

I could listen to these guys talk all day

[@CaminoAir]

Ironically, Dunphy was about the only one in Ireland who responded positively to Charlton's appointment. Everyone else was bemoaning Bob Paisley narrowly failing to get appointed instead. I read his Irish Independent

I came of age in Dublin in 1978 , there was no work , no hope ,nothing but the northern troubles and doom piled upon gloom .The only good thing that happened in Ireland when I was in my twenties was Jack and what he achieved with the lads at his disposal . Unfortunately Eamon could not overcome his initial setback with Jack and never had a good word to say about him or his achievements , Dunphy has his moments but the early 1980,s we not among them

[@johntiswell7599]

This is brilliant . Very insightful

[@willh1970]

Fair play Eamon. I think its important that people remember how bad things were in Ireland before Jack became manager. He, amongst many others, gave us a pride in ourselves. And for that I say thanks Jack.

[@davetherave1729]

Jack Charlton gave us some great memories. 👌👌

[@mag-wp6yt]

Thanks for the upload.

[@garethdavies2145]

Great analysis. Credit to Giles for distancing himself from Charlton when he was ROI manager. I think there's a few current day pundits who could follow that example.

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

Jack had a coaching football program on TV in the 70s

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

John Stone on man City could have learnt from Jack getting rid of the ball in the box..

[@johndoyle1810]

Jack charlton would be the big daddy of Irish international soccer since his time in charge of Ireland soccer team

[@shanet5604]

It’s what ifs ! McCarthy never had any luck ! Had one fxxxxx player challenged a corner against Macedonia to qualify for EC2000 Saipan wouldn’t have happened !

[@greengrass811]

I am surprised that Giles says that Bobby as a footballer didn't have a great knowledge of the game . From i have seen of him from matches online : Bobby looked like a mixture of gazza and scholes.

[@garyhillman4993]

People said to jack why the long ball tactics getting it in the area route one jack he said can we play the Italians spanish Brazilians at there own game ? No so we ll play our own style they won’t like it .. n he was right The Irish never had a look in till then n big jack scored 100 goals for Leeds too !!

[@markdonoghue3703]

This is very good

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

Pep of man city is a coach and manager who makes players better

[@pappamojovchero9797]

I think Pep works with world class players only lol I couldn't see him doing naff all with players like Charlton Palmer and Geoff Thomas

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

Brian Labone Everton centre half was considered for the 1966 team. I believe his wife had a say in him not going to the world cup. 1970 saw Labone in Mexico. He was a clean skilful player. Far better than Jack.

[@Fintanflaherty]

Great insight

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

Charlton it is said has memory problems

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

My Dad said Charlton most of the time would hit the ball over the top of the goal into the crowd. Missing a lot

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

Liam Brady world class not selected

[@wolftone6]

Brady was suspended for 4 games for the 88 euros. Only on appeal it was reduced to 2 games. There was only 20 places so it was pointless to pick him.

[@Fintanflaherty]

@@wolftone6 and he was injured too during euro's it was said.

[@michaelmulhall5007]

@@wolftone6 He did ruin liam though in a green Jersey also embarssed him in a friendly by taking him off after 20 mins agaisnf Germany. Liam bradys is our greatest ever player for me ahead of John himself, Keane and mcgrath

[@josephmorton9478]

R.I.P Big Jack.

[@MikeL-7]

Bob Paisley should have got the job. With the players Ireland had they could have won the Euros in 88. If you had someone managing them to their strengths the only team that was better in Europe was the Dutch.

[@wbafc1231]

Harsh but there is a lot of truth in it. The Dutch were the only team to better them.

[@Fcvidal3]

Irish win the Euro's !!!!! LOL !!!!

[@cringycook9597]

It was the draw against u.s.s.r at the time that cost us dear and that was probably our best performance but we only drew, the defeat to Holland would not have mattered had we won!

[@mag-wp6yt]

@@Fcvidal3 You've obviously no clue about the team we had in that tournament.

[@wolftone6]

Not a hope. Every other squad was superior to us in the 88 euros. Jack did an incredible job and its a bit irish to claim that we could have won in 88.
