    They're hoping for a free kick he can take.

    From a Bale dive probably.

    I've only switched on for the second half. Is Joe Allen playing? Heard he was training separately because of his hamstring.

    No, he's not.

    Got a centre half in Ampadu playing there instead.

    It's not working really, although better second half.

    I think we've got a very good squad but we're lacking at CB still and it'll cost us at some point against the better sides. We were also light in midfield a bit but Bellingham is a game changer there and key to us doing anything beyond decent at this tournament.

    It's definitely an open tournament this year and I don't think there's one outstanding team but I still reckon it'll be Argentina or Brazil.

    For all his faults, Maguire looks the real deal for England. Trust me, I watch him for United and he just looks so much more self-assured for England. Fck knows what it is, but there's a real difference.

    How have Wales not scored <doh>

    It's because we play quite defensively which he's much more suited to than a modern high line/every style which exposes him badly. He's still a disaster waiting to happen at times though and gets caught square far too often for the highest level imo.

    I don't paticularly rate Stones that highly either tbh, at least not without a top cb alongside him.

    I think you're Welsh but like to have the safety net of England when it inevitably goes tits up for Wales.

    Brennan Johnson is a player. They need to get the ball to him.
