Surely our ambition is to finish 2nd to Croatia. Let them beat everybody else and make our focus Latvia, Armenia and Turkey. Keep our loss to Croatia to a minimum. Sneak anything is a massive bonus.

Yeah, a bit harsh, although a move or passage of play of some note (from us) would be encouraging.

True, in the first half we gave the ball away much too easily. Bit better second half.

James should have scored then

Yup, the only concern for me is that we haven't shown a thing, we haven't controlled 1 second of the game. Performance is important, even if it's just from individual players. Getting beat tonight wont be a problem, but it would be nice for us to be able to concentrate on some individual performances.

Dan James has to put that on target and at least test the keeper...

He couldn't cross a pools coupon or finish half of shandy tonight tbh

I think we’ve been the better side 2nd half.

Ampadu think's he's the captain today the way he is bossing everybody around.

He is now

Yeah, definite improvement.

The first half reminds me of the game against USA in the World Cup. Page's team talks must be as boring as f**k!

Credit to Wales, they’re still well in the game going into the last fifteen minutes - something I thought was out of the question at half time. Got to say though that our bench looks much weaker now.

The ref’s a right homer as well.

Nearly brilliant from Perisic
