Giovanni Trapattoni has said that his comments regarding Robbie Brady prior to the Sweden game, were lost in translation.

The Ireland manager was quoted as saying that the Hull winger was dropped from the match because of doubts over his "psychology."

Brady who was initially named in the starting XI for the qualifiers in Stockholm but was dropped in favour of Jon Walters on the eve of the game.

"Reporters were happy to make a mistake about the managers words. I did not say he was confused," said Trap at a press conference this morning.
