    Broadly agree but that will be tough on Edwards and Matthews in particular due to injurys.

    Bradshaw could be worth a gamble, include Lawrence in midfield and drop Vaughan/Cottrill, dont need both IMO - too similar

    I'd make a case for Huws, Henley and Dummett but your squad is probably pretty close to what it will be and what we can offer currently.

    Leaving Edwards out would be a big decision given what he's contributed over the past 10 years. But, as you say, his injury may rule him out anyway.

    I think that squad looks pretty accurate. Dummett is never fit for five minutes so will struggle to make the cut. Edwards might just squeeze in ahead of Vaughan.I think Lawrence will be fortunate to make the squad based on what I saw tonight.
    Huws needs a big game against Ukraine.

    I'd probably put myself in instead of Bale just to see how much anger and confusion it would generate.

    Same 23 for me. Also agree that Edwards, Matthews & Huws could be the call up list.

    I'd replace Huws with Vaughan and Richards for Matthews

    Feel a bit for Dummett how many times over the years have we had someone playing championship football let alone Pl football regularly who might not get a place in the squad.

    It looks like there is not a great deal of movement I would say the only ones not certain are church, Lawrence, Vaughan, Cotterell and richards.

    I think Vaughan is closest thing we have to Allen which might work in his favour.

    I think he will have 8 defenders, 8 midfielders and 4 strikers to go with the 3 keepers.

    Dead certs: 16

    Hennessey
    Ward
    Ron-Williams

    Gunter
    Davies
    Williams
    Collins
    Chester
    Taylor

    Rambo
    Allen
    Ledley
    King

    Bale
    Hrk
    vokes

    Then for me jazz Richards - reward for qualifiers - plus either Adam Matthews or dummett - straight choice.

    Plus Jonny Williams - offers something different, huws - Coleman fancies him- and Edwards regular squad player.
    Then 1 from George Williams, Vaughan - think he played his way out of squad last night - and cotterill or Tom Lawrence if considered midfielder. I'd go tom Lawrence.

    Plus simon church or Tom Lawrence - up front.
