International football friendlys

[William Treseder]

Nope. Ideal for bringing younger players in, playing without Bale etc.

Don’t agree at all. A complete waste of time and effort. There’s enough games for players to play without having to get involved in timid meaningless friendlies. If a youngster is decent, chuck him into the deep end and let him loose. He’ll learn more in a real game that he will in 10 friendlies.

The friendly with France wasn't 'timid'!

It was a good game of football to watch but would rather have been watching Cardiff play their forthcoming fixture.

If you don’t qualify then you have to play some friendlies or you won’t play a game for a year. That said I like the fact that we are playing in the China cup against quality opposition with a bit of a competitive edge to it, maybe the FAW could think of hosting something similar in the future so we don’t have to travel half way around the world.
