Damien Delaney on Stephen Kenny: 'I think it's time we start looking at other options'

Damien Delaney has branded Stephen Kenny 'out of his depth' and believes it's time Ireland start 'looking at other options.'

A 2-1 defeat to Greece in Athens appears to have been the final straw for Delaney who slammed Kenny for his tactical naivety and claimed Gus Poyet 'tactically outwitted' his opposite number.

Both Delaney and Keith Tracey blasted Kenny's performance as Irish manager on Virgin Media this evening, with Delaney even suggesting it may be time to think about replacing Kenny as manager.

"Ultimately, he's out of his depth. Four competitive wins in 23 is nowhere near good enough," said Delaney.

"The manager over the last three years has cherry picked statistics and has framed time and results to have it in his favour. But he's been found out now.

"He's had enough time in the job and unfortunately, I think it's time we start looking at other options."
