We have things to improve on, says realistic Martin O’Neill

A win, a 10th home game without defeat, and a handful of debuts.

You take whatever positives you can get on a night as forgettable as that. Nobody expects fireworks from a friendly shoehorned into the last few laps of the club season, and Martin O’Neill certainly wasn’t gushing in his review.

“We lacked a bit of cohesion, but it is nice to keep the momentum going against a very fine Swiss side that kept possession well,” he said. “There are things we can improve. I just thought we could have a wee bit more confidence in ourselves when in possession of the ball.”
