Hate England, love an English club.

Bit odd if you ask me.
'Hate'. I don't hate any football team or country. Please don't confuse me with the masses who get caught up in football tribalism.

unchanged?... jesus wept roy... well, you better bloody get the subs right this time if things ain't going well.

...good to see henno and ledley start for the welsh but hope they don't do too well... disappointed that jonny williams has been dropped, thought he did really well against slovakia.

I'm happy enough with Roy starting with the same line-up. I think we played well on Saturday, particularly early on, so lets give them another go at it.

You're right actually. We did play well. I guess I just really wanna see Vardy get some game time along with Wilshere

Wales:
Hennessey, Gunter, Chester, Williams, Taylor, Davies, Ledley, Ramsey, Allen, Robson-Kanu, Bale.

Subs: Fon Williams, King, George Williams, Edwards, Richards, Cotterill, Vokes, Collins, Jonathan Williams, Vaughan, Church.
Good confidence boost for the Welsh to have the reliable Hennessey back in goal.

The other two changes don't surprise me either; Ledley was far more effective in midfield against Slovakia than David Edwards was and Robson-Kanu's introduction didn't just bring the goal but brought Ramsey into attacking link-up situations as well.

Unfortunate for Jonny Williams - who had a good game against Slovakia - but that's the way it goes.

I don't know about you guys but I've taken a serious liking with Rose & Walker as our primary full backs. They've grown into great players tbh. As an Arsenal fan I find it unfortunate how Gibbs' career is panning out but it is what it is. Just not good enough.

I too thought England played well, so I'm not surprised to see things unchanged. What would worry me is the fact that Kane's taking corners, a few other have alluded to this as well. A striker should be in the box with corners, imo.

Having Wilshire and Vardy on the bench to try and get something when you're chasing the game/need a goal also makes sense.

Ffs Sterling

Just getting it in early..

Hope Roy gets the subs right, with Vardy coming on at some point.

Really?

Do you think that Sterling's performance deserved to be rewarded by staying in the team?

I feel like doing a Roy Hodgson and banging my head on the wall with his uninspired team selection

I was baffled by Kane taking corners. Like, why? Hopefully we don't see that this game and in the box instead like you said.

And yeah, those two coming on to stretch the game does make a lot of sense but I'm just worried about the timing of the substitutions, we'll see though.

I think the team did enough against Russia to merit keeping it the same.

Wow, totally forgot about Sterling. That's how irrelevant he was last game. Yeah, he's the only one I don't wanna see start. Rest of the team is fine though.

I'm a bit unsure about Sterling. At least he's got pace and occasionally puts a good ball in! Prefer him to Milner anyway

Are you ever going to get over the performance of ex-Liverpool and current City player Sterling?

Very quiet about the performance of current Man Utd player Martial last night though.

The team did well expect for Sterling, he shouldn't be rewarded by starting this match.

Huh, Martial didn't do as well as he could have done, there is no doubt about that, why bring club politics into this, what has Sterling's club got to do with anything???

We are talking about a player seriously underperformed, club politics and loyalties don't come into it

Bbc1 is the main channel, they want to show it on that, there is no need to reschedule the one o clock news for build up an hour beforehand, so show it on bbc2

Thankfully, for the first time in my life I planned ahead and took a half day today.

I don't think I'd want to be at work if England lose.
