Damn! We have plenty of zzz's in our football team, wanna trade?We have no "Z" in our alphabet, but a solid effort
Yeah but at least being English you have a chance of getting another decent generation of players. For us, we've lucky if we get a half decent set of players every 40 years.
Ah that's true, probably thinking of Moses and Berahino (who wouldn't get in any national squad to be fair) just remember a big thing about Welbeck when he was the hot prospect way back when!Danny's parents are from Ghana but he was born in Longsight, so he's just as English as Ashley Williams
Sorry, the pedant in me couldn't help it. I actually get your point and think you're right about people like Wilshire being in the side over others that had far better seasons than him. Wales have been pretty excellent so far, especially tonight, and thoroughly deserve to be where they are now. They've made the most of what they have and you can't even argue that Bale has dragged them through on his talent alone. He's had his moments, but it's been a team effort above everything else.
Your players are all still young (and Charly Musonda will be ready soon). Get a manager who can get them playing for each other and you could do great things.
Always loved the Irish!I'm Irish but tonight I feel Welsh!
Made up for you guys - considering what you've had to come thru to get here its fantastic. You have nothing to fear on Wednesday - you're organised and performing to such a high level.
Grow up.
He seems like a snide arsehole who only draws out his daggers in the dark.
Not a chance of appointing a good manager. So we're fecked.
Hodgson is available.
By the way thanks to all the Caf posters congratulating us and supporting us, probably hurts for the English ones too so much respect for you!
And yeah half our team were born in England, but why don't you take out Sterling who's Jamaican, Welbeck (who would have been in the squad) who's from Ghana, fact is these players chose to play for this team, if they didn't feel Welsh then they'd have done what Shawcross done and decide not to play international football (we asked him but he refused).
These guys are not forced to play for us, hence the heart and passion they play with, and who said only Williams would get in the English team?
If we're judging solely on talent then there's Williams, Bale, Ramsey, (possibly Allen) and the traffic cone that was brought here by a drunk Welsh fan to play in goals cos even that would do a better job than Hart in goal, that's half a team, judging on talent alone, then you factor in will, passion and mentality then you realise player like Drinkwater and Townsend should be there instead of Wilshire and Sterling.
Enjoy it mate - I can only imagine what the bars are like in Cardiff and all over Wales atm - chaosAlways loved the Irish!
Im not even thinking of Portugal yet, not thinking of anything other than tonight at the moment. Get in!
The thing is you expect to get mocked for losing to Iceland when it's your national game and you're a nation of nearly 60 million - it's the exact stuff of mockery. By contrast the Welsh have consistently showed every quality you admire in a team: skill, passion, guts, determination, comradeship. It's an amazing achievement that deserves to be encouraged and recognised as such.
Yeah I agree with you, I think England should be setting the example for the home nations but the individuals you select really harm the team spirit, and that's gone back as far as I can remember, Gerrard was overly arrogant and egotistical, and when I seen Kane try a Ronaldo/Bale free kick against Iceland I could just see that ego creeping into his game, I mean he doesn't take corners or free kicks for Spurs, why is he acting like the main main for England when he's not good enough to be? I think the England team could develop into something very promising as a group while the players are talented but not world class, they should concentrate on working together to build a bond but they only seem interested in taking the glory themselves.
Not too far off then! It sounds quite a lot like a drunken man's last conscious thoughts.
Lmao.So not close?
England don't really have all the talent in the world, though.
Ha. I thought you were correcting me. Looking it up it's actually
. Wow what a performance, I didn't expect them to win in a million years. Fantastic team spirit and fight in the Welsh team. Unbelievable!Don't wanna jinx or anything but since when Portugal had an easy win against anyone?

The same Portugal we saw Thursday night?
See, I just don't think that kind of criticism is fair, let alone thoughtful.Daily Mail said:
