Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES - Match Thread
should have won that, Bale was pretty poor

Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES - Match Thread
James could, possibly should, have won it last kick.
Decent point though.

Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES - Match Thread
The last 10 Minutes was embarrassing, this mentality that a draw will do out here is a joke. We are competing directly against Slovakia for 2nd place and with a red card we couldn't even be bothered to press them outside our own half, ****ing pathetic.

Re: FT: SLOVAKIA 1 - 1 WALES - Match Thread
Happy with that. We are right back in the mix now. If we finish level on points with Slovakia we will be above them on head to head.

Yes it was a great chance which we did not make the most of but we are right back in this group now.

I think that’s harsh. Slovakia are a decent side and we looked knackered. We have quite a few players who are not playing every week.

Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES - Match Thread
Giggs inspires absolutely nothing. Average result, but after the 30th minute it was a fairly poor performance.
However, despite Giggs' ineptitude it's about time people starting calling Bale out, the bloke hasn't played well, or consistently well for us for years now. He's not a leader, and at a time where with some many youngsters we actually need one. He seems to genuinely play down to the standard of all the other players, where he used to elevate them, prior too and during the Euros.
Fact of the matter that no Rambo on sunday, then it's no Euro 2020 for us.

They are a decent enough side, and in parts it was a decent enough performance and result overall with players missing. Our defence was makeshift and it showed badly.

If we lose on Sunday and Hungary win we are five points behind them but if we win in Azerbaijan and beat them that is very likely to be enough for second place. It will be enough for us to finish above Hungary and Slovakia would have to get something away in Croatia and win against Azerbaijan

Bale is not the player he was,his club troubles are following through to his international games.

Re: FT: SLOVAKIA 1 - 1 WALES - Match Thread
A thrilling game to watch but just a shame that we faded so much in the second half and let them come back into it. Frustrating too that the ref was very card happy for Wales but sent their player off about 20mins too late. We have to give it a good go on Sunday now as it's go for broke time.

Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES - Match Thread
We had one more sub available. Not sure why some fresh legs weren’t thrown on late doors to try to capitalise on the extra man.

Re: FT: SLOVAKIA 1 - 1 WALES - Match Thread
I thought Bale was lucky not to be sent off near the end. Moore did well

Agreed Jeeps. This was also a young side so overall a point won than two points lost for me.

Feeling of deja vu.
Isn't that twice you've got the head to head rule in today Pearcey? :biggrin:
Very valid point put forward though :thumbup:

Moore gives us another option too. Got Brooks to come back in as well as Ramsey. I’m sure we will still screw it up from here but we will have a full house on Sunday night. Looking forward to it.

Re: FT: SLOVAKIA 1 - 1 WALES - Match Thread
A real positive tonight was seeing Jonny Williams back to his best, really pleased to see him back in the team. If only referees gave him some protection though as he can't breathe without getting clattered every 30 seconds.

I was pretty down looking at the table at the end, thinking Slovakia's better goal difference could come into play. But it's head to head before goal difference? Anything against Croatia though would be huge.

It’s head to head so if Slovakia lose in Croatia then they are likely to finish on 13 points. If we beat Hungary and Azerbaijan we really should be there. Defeat v Croatia is by no means the end of it.

Re: FT: SLOVAKIA 1 - 1 WALES - Match Thread
Just to add if we finish level on points with both Hungary and Slovakia then the points each side has got against each other will decide who finishes second. This becomes more tricky as Slovakia would have 7 points from the four games and so would we if we beat Hungary who would only have 3 points.
