    Wes Burns out injured

    Does Page go three at the back using Rodon, Mepham and Ben Davies with Connor Roberts and Neco Williams as wing backs? Ampadu at CDM.
    Brooks and Dan James wide. Harry Wilson at ten and Johnson up top

    Plenty of pace and energy there.

    Not for me. Bring him on in the second half if we need a physical presence. Appreciate he does give us a target in the box
    though.

    I think we play better when Moore is on the pitch to hold up the ball and get us up the pitch. Think Brooks will be a sub

    You may well be right. Presumably Johnson will then play wide with Moore on his own up front.

    Colwill, Levitt and Adam Davies the players from the squad to miss out tonight apparently - the match day squad is limited to twenty three.

    At least Colwill won’t get injured if he isn’t in the squad.

    Seems harsh on Colwill but when you see the other attacking midfielders, it makes sense

    Still an unknown quantity for me and not that much of a surprise.

    Agree, he's better focusing on his day job.

    I think one of his major shortfalls is that he always thinks that he has more time on the ball than he actually has - and gets dispossessed easily as a result.

    He's more than just a target. He can play a bit. Quite intelligently too.

    Re: WALES v FINLAND. Match thread

    He's a decent player but is on the slow side. I'd like to see the team play with the pace and energy they showed v Austria in the WC play off match

    Pace for me too

    No sure I’d agree with benching Moore. He’s in phenomenal form for Ipswich and was our best player against Croatia. Think we have a lot more chance of scoring with him playing.

    Close but no cigar with Dan James on the bench.

    Is Rob Page attempting to be as controversial as possible not starting Moore? What an unbelievably lightweight front 3.

    James came late to the camp after becoming a Dad.

    Got you. We were right about Ampadu. Welsh captain before long.

    Great to see the ground full.....and maybe I am biased but we must have one of the best - if not THE best anthem in the world...

    Re: WALES v FINLAND. Match thread
