I know
We never seem to learn that lesson, I think it's England's biggest weakness in all honesty. In attack, we looked almost as good as Germany, but the Germans didn't sit back so deep when they scored their first. England continuing to think 1 goal is enough, time and time again it's proved a shitty strategy, and even on the odd times when it does work, it feels like England scrape a win, because you have to sit through half the match watching shots rain down on us. |

If Rooney's in midfield and Kane is taking the corners, then Wales should win. Rooney plays with his head down so much these days you wonder why he bothers to turn up.

Think 'comfortably' is overdoing it. Ramsey is only top quality playing the attacking midfield or No10 role. And at the mo i'd take Deli Alli ahead of him. Also Ramsey looked rather lost in Wales 1st match with no genuine No9 to play behind, As to get Ramsey in is best role they had to play Bale up top with less licence to roam, and this system didn't look like it worked to me. So as an englishman i hope Wales play the same formation and system tomorrow, because i dont think they can win playing that way.

Head-England. Heart (and soul!) - Wales.
Was, umm, minus 11 last time Wales were in a major tournament, so this is all new to me. If we hustle and harry and play out of our skins, who knows? A draw would be cool so we're top going into the last group match. (my Welsh pessimism kicks in when I think ahead to Russia. They've been woeful, but surely they'll actually turn up for a whole 90 minutes at some point?!) It's an exciting prospect and will *try* to enjoy the game, despite already getting a bit jittery! |

What makes you think it will be a comfortable England win?

I'm hoping we're following the Euro 96 pattern.....draw the the first game 1 - 1 then play against a Britsh side in game 2 (which would mean England 2 - 0 Bales)

The last time England scored more than one goal in a tournament game was seven games ago. Given Bale is basically a lock to score that would have to change tomorrow if England are to win. I'd love to see it but right now it seems unlikely.
![]() I think 4 points means England are through regardless of what happens in the last game and Wales with Russia to come should easily qualify too. |
