We've never been a team that's blessed with an abundance of quality, but Mepham is really not very good.

Wales wont get anything in Rome.

Apart from a beating. Wales might get someting vs Turkey, but even that might be a struggle. It’s just a poor squad with 1 or 2 decent players, and too many of the old guard not fit/good enough anymore.

you said it was a tough group? Maybe I missed the sarcasm, it wasn’t obvious.

England are a very good team, they have no excuses, they should be winning 3 out of 3. Croatia are decent - that is who I was inferring. Or they where, not actually got a clue what they are like now to be fair.

I think the Czechs will take a point; Croatia will beat England; and we all know Scotland will play like prime Brazil when they come up against the English. Nothing in England's recent friendlies convinces me that they are anywhere near the form they were when they last beat Belgium, for example. They're a shit side playing like a bunch of total strangers.

Yes not up to much at all.

There's too many very poor players in this Welsh team.

it really was

Mbabu is a good player though.

Makes me wonder how Newcastle got nothing out of him, then I remembered it’s Newcastle..

doesn’t surprise me! Done well to get there in all honesty

With the crap going around Giggs (who a lot of Welsh fans never wanted anyway as coach), and a lot of injuries and a lot of the old guard winding down, and not that much talent coming through, it was going to be a big ask.

I’d be up for this. If they get through though then I think the semis might be their limit.

Fraudulent yellow

Really good ball in that, went by everyone.

The Ricardo Rodriguez hype died down pretty quickly didn't it? One year he was the talk of being THE Left Back of the new generation and next thing poof.

Yeah, guess that was just to early in his career too. He’s done well since. Nice player for Wolfsburg after working his way into a regular starting spot.

xbugawugax · « **Reply #654 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:29:22 pm »

was it a bad injury for rodriguez? seem he was highly rated too

wales are a bunch of fannies. falling over at any touch. The officiating has been pretty decent this game so far. as in shit for both sides..lol

That Seferovic is shite aint he.

Italy winning this group with ease you would think.

Did a predictor type thing before and England’s route up to the final is really tough no matter if they get 1st, 2nd or 3rd. France on the other hand, have it relatively easy, unless one of the better teams fucks up their group and then gets their act together.

David Brooks on for Dan James.

Crosby Nick · « **Reply #671 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:35:25 pm »

What points total should be enough to get teams as one of the 4 best 3rd places? Would one win almost certainly get you through? 2 points would make it tight.

Didn’t Portugal scrape through with three draws before winning it last time?

b_joseph · « **Reply #672 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:35:34 pm »

The Swiss spent the past 10 minutes backing off Wales like there were fearful...tough scenes

xbugawugax · « **Reply #673 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:35:52 pm »

2 good headers so far. peach of a delivery for the goals

Tobelius · « **Reply #674 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:36:17 pm »

James acting like a child coming off like he's been some big fecking star man for Wales.

skipper757 · « **Reply #675 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:36:38 pm »

Switzerland should've pressed the advantage after the first goal. Embolo was unstoppable.

Sitting back with a 1-goal lead. Was asking for it.

davidlpool1982 · « **Reply #676 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:36:54 pm »

Perfect plan. Be shite for 73 mins and score a header after threatening nothing.

Feel sorry for James coming off there. Only player who wanted to press and run.

Sarge · « **Reply #677 on:** June 12, 2021, 03:37:13 pm »

Embolo has to hit the target at least with that.
