    And we want Wales to make it through.......don't we? Come on Roy, little shake up but don't go all Hendo on us, my nerves can't take it!

    Finally on the verge of dropping Rooney, wouldn't say hes been overly brave. He's just so boring! I'm bored of his face, bored of his voice, bored of mediocrity.

    Players don't need resting for the game, they get a rest anyway. In the last WC the teams that had qualified from the groups with a game to spare and subsequently changed their team, all struggled with cohesion in the next round. Also, if we lose this game, and Wales beat Russia, we finish third! One more game to Italy, France, Germany or Spain and then they can all go home.

    Sorry, but making six changes is stupid. Change one/both fullback/s yes, start Sturridge yes. Vardy yes. But leave the midfield and definitely leave the captain.

    Totally agree....hate it when managers try to be too clever. That's when you come unstuck. Let's worry about the next round when we get there!

    Both teams to go through hopefully. Want to avoid 3rd place though.

    I do hope that our 2 lads get a chance....they are the only sensible changes to make :rolleyes:...apart from resting Kane.

    I think it is important to blood GKs....you never know when you might need them. The third game is always the most likely for this to happen...though preferably when you are completely safe. Comes down to whether Roy thinks Hart is streets ahead of Forster and must be played.

    I do hope that Helen, but England to do their job and get through. I may then see what the Wales result was and give a little cheer when you do qualify.

    He's going to punish Hart for that free-kick :)

    I don't understand all these changes, Slovakia are no mugs and we could still finish 3rd if we put in a poor performance tonight. Same starting 11 vs Wales , but Vardy In for sterling.

    I hope it's not 6 changes. Big mistake if so I reckon. I'd definitely leave the back 6 alone.

    Very important to win the group as it's a decent route to semis. Can't meet any of France, Germany, Italy or Spain (the 4 favs imo) until the semis if we win the group <ok>

    How the hell do the press know the team selection so early anyway?
