If Belgium are ranked 20 then England must be 40. FFS they were ranked best in the world a couple of years ago, just look at some of their players who would walk into most International teams Benteke Fellaini Mignolet Cortous Lukaku De Bruyne Kompany Dembelle Origi Hazard Boyata Chadli There's more than that
Thank you Doc. Belgium are a class side that's really come together since Euro 2012. They've enjoyed the happy coincidence that their world class players have hit the heights at the same time. It's much the same with Wales but we have only 2 - Bale and Ramsey. The shortage in pure quality in the Wales set up when set against that Belgium outfit is compensated by team spirit and effort. No primadonnas - just graft for each other and the manager. We came up just short last summer in the Euros and have made it difficult for ourselves this WC qualifying by drawing 5 games on the trot - 4 of which we should have seen out for the win.
And Don't talk crap Doc,top 50 ranked Wales beat them 3 times while they were supposed to be no 1 and a crap England ran rings around Wales.
When was that? "Run rings around Wales" - don't be silly Chesh, you came from behind and got over the line with a Sturridge goal in injury time. Your other results were two draws against Russia and Slovakia both of whom we hammered. I won't mention your humiliating loss against Iceland in the Quarters whilst we beat Belgium - oops I just did. EDIT.....Ooops again - I've given you too much credit. You didn't reach the quarters did you - Iceland dumped you out in the last 16.
When you say we. you mean Gareth Bale. Now he is crocked more often than he is fit you are back to being ****e...
Iceland are going the same world cup your not and a fair result would have been 4-1 England,Slovakia pissed all over you just couldn't score.
Aye, I suppose we were ****e out in Tiblisi on Friday without him and still won the game whilst all your talent managed to savage Lithuania 1-0. We're without him again tonight and just hope we play the same ****e and win that as well.
Matter of opinion London but in our eyes he makes the side tick. Always regarded as second to Bale but he often brings a lot more to the party than Bale.
You sure about that? We'll take it as it comes. One thing's for sure, you're there and so are Iceland - let's hope you don't play them again eh?
You can only beat what's in front of you - like Iceland for instance...... Just don't come back early this time.......
And we will have a few bitters to remind us of absent friends. It must hurt you guys so much that you have all this bitter hate for England,while we couldn't give a fook about wales.
Sounds like you've got a few "bitters" on the forum already - very bitter...... Whatever happens, life will go on and we'll return to the nitty gritty of the Championship this coming weekend. Incidentally, when I last looked a week or so back, we were top and you were 5th.
How can I be bitter,your not our world cup rivals,how can you be,you've never been in one in mine or your lifetime
