Thread: Wales v Denmark

  1. #1

    Wales v Denmark

    Really looking forward to this. My first visit to the CCS since that awful defeat to Ireland last year. Giggs looks like he has a very strong squad to chose from with few injuries. Ben Davies is suspended. It looks like Giggs has the luxury of some difficult decisions to make. I would go with...

    GK.Hennessey
    RB Roberts
    CB Mepham
    CB Chester
    LB Dummett
    CDM Ampadu
    CM Allen
    CM Ramsey
    RM Brooks
    LM Wilson although I think Lawrence will get the nod
    ST Bale

    dont think you can play Bale as a target man, he needs to be running at players not have is back to goal so I would play Lawrence up front. Wilson missed out.

    Re: Wales v Denmark

    We don’t have an out and out striker unless you play Tyler Roberts or Sam Vokes. Now it may mean that both Lawrence and Wilson miss out allowing Bale a roaming/wide role with Roberts as striker.

    Lawrence has to start for me. This would be my team as it has flexibility:

    Hennessey

    C Roberts Chester Williams Dummett

    Ramsey Allen

    Wilson Brooks Lawrence

    Bale

    Whilst also dropping into:
    Hennessey

    C Roberts Chester Williams Dummett

    Wilson Ramsey Allen

    Brooks Bale Lawrence

    Ampadu will definately play, you can't have five attack-minded players against Denmark!

    Wilson and Ramsey are both playing more withdrawn roles for their club side, playing 5 across the midfield means we can be a bit more expansive. Also, it's Denmark not Spain. They're going to sit back and be tough to break down, especially if Eriksen isn't 100%.

    He's barely played since the Spain game though

    He was on the bench for Chelsea last week though so he is fit.
    This looks like being a sell out. Should be a cracking atmosphere.

    Eriksen has been fit for weeks. We need Ampadu for his distribution as well as his defensive abilities. The first half against Ireland was like watching paint dry with nobody knowing how to play the ball out.

    Re: Wales v Denmark

    Ampadu is also the player who covers for a full-back if they go forward, which is quite often under Giggs.

    Re: Wales v Denmark

    Seems to be a lot of expectation on Ampadu already. He was exceptional against Ireland but remember there were impressive displays from Woodburn who has subsequently struggled in the championship.

    He's a talented lad who can read the game. You can't teach that.

    Woodburn isn’t struggling. He just hasn’t had a chance yet. Sheffield Utd have been flying so it’s not easy to break into a winning side.

    I was going to say something like that.

    Bale has picked up an ankle injury. It sounds like he will be ok......

    He's our second best player according to some...

    Virtually sold out.

    Re: Wales v Denmark

    It's going to be a cracking game, and it can't be any worse than last time when our superstars didn't turn up. Hopefully Osian Roberts and his team have analysed the last game, and we will be a different prospect this time around.

    Re: Wales v Denmark

    James Chester, Chris Mepham, Neil Taylor, George Thomas and newcomer James Lawrence also sat out the Wales squad's first training session of the week.

    Denmark will be without their influential captain Simon Kjaer because of a hamstring injury.

    I'd like to go with 11 Welshmen.

    But that's just me

    It looks like Ashley Williams will be playing then.
