Wales: Wayne Hennessey, Danny Ward, Adam Davies, Ben Davies, James Chester, Neil Taylor, Chris Gunter, Jazz Richards, James Collins, Tom Lockyer, Ashley Williams, Ethan Ampadu, Joe Allen, David Edwards, Andy King, Lee Evans, Joe Ledley, Aaron Ramsey, Jonathan Williams, Gareth Bale, Marley Watkins, Hal Robson-Kanu, Sam Vokes, Tom Lawrence, Ben Woodburn
Exciting to see Ampadu included again and glad the likes of Cotterill are being phased out. Good squad of players there, Maxwell is very unlikely not to get the call mind.
Would expect Serbia to beat Moldova and Georgia in their remaining Home matches. At the same time I think all Wales' remaining games are realistically winnable. Obviously in must-win territory now though.Quote:

Also pleased to see Marley Watkins, Lee Evans and Tom Lockyer in there, I said on another messageboard that Ampadu and Evans could be potential "surprise" call ups and for once I'm right :hehe:
We have three players n the Under 21 squad as well, Mark Harris, Cameron Coxe and Rhys Abbruzzesse
Strong squad. We need the weekend to be kind and then go full tilt at Austria and Moldova. We need six points from these games. Anything less then it's all over.
Not sure Lee Evans is there on merit though, rather emergency. He has a lot of potential and can be very good on his day, but has proved unreliable in his inconsistency up to now. Think he's gone on loan to League one again so hopefully he can push on.Quote:

Your lot have been linked with Dave Edwards mate. Think that could be a shrewd signing. Kind of wish we'd go for him.Quote:

Ledley? He can't be anything like fit.
It's not a must win, but we cannot lose any game now and we can probably only draw once.
Good to see a mix of young players coming through and players rewarded for good form last year/start of this. It's Wales though, it's the sum of our parts rather than seeing individuals on the list.
Big performance needed by the fans first of all. Remember Belgium at home last qualification where people got in early, everyone was wearing red and we knew we had to play our part.
I disagree, the Moldova game is not really going to count at the end anyway because bottom place doesn't come in to play. Must win for me, not only for the points but desperately for morale.Quote:

Usually agree with you Surge. Not this time. To win the group we will need to win all four games. Even then Serbia may pip us. To finish second and have enough points to take one of the play off places draws against the likes of Austria are not enough. We could finish second but once our points from the Moldova game are removed we may miss out on a play off place. We have had too many draws. We have to start winning.Quote:
