    Giggs is so pre occupied with players who can pass the ball that he's completely freezing out players who do other parts of the game well.


    Or maybe I've just been watching Cardiff for too long.

    Chester has been poorly treated.

      True. Think Vaulks will come back in when not playing Belgium and Czechia mind.

        Giggs clearly has his favourites
        I dont think Jephcott has scored in 9? Vaulks can't play as well, he's done well for us but he's a really limited footballer and that's certainly counted against him. Still, he's better than Levitt at present.

          With his injury record, and his age, does Chester want to be involved?

            He hasn’t retired from international football and plays regularly again. If he wasn’t bothered he would surely have retired from internationals.

              Wales to have "dialogue" with Juventus about Aaron Ramsey. I think it's harsh to say that Ramsey is not committed to Wales, but that only staring three of Wales' last twenty matches stat is a telling one and it seems to me that we're at a stage where now where we should plan as if he's not going to play and treat any games where he does play as a bonus;-

              Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey is not available for their opening World Cup qualifying games through injury.

                  Davies is out as well? Losing his experience at the back is a blow! Going to be a real struggle against the Belgians, I suspect we might not get off to a great start in our WC qualifying campaign yet again

                    Hasn't he just had a quite poor time of injuries lately, last year and a half I guess. He seems to be unable to get much if a run going without something.

                    I agree we should be looking beyond him and bale really, think within the next couple of years, maybe less, we will officially not be able to call on either anyway.

                    All cycles I suppose but how I'd love to have prime bale and Ramsey back.

                      with Davies out he might be forced to play 2 midfielders in midfield, rather than 1 centre back and 1 midfielder.

                        Ramsey was in fine form and playing a run of games but over exerted himself trying to turn Emery's Arsenal around and hasn't had any luck since.

                        Davies has probably played more games this year than anyone not name Kieffer Moore and is a huge loss.

                        It's going to be a very tough game but we have to believe we can get something out of it.

                          Not good news about Ben Davies. Three certain starters in Davies, Ramsey and Brooks all missing.

                            Is the requisite for Wales selection these days to be playing as few minutes as possible?

                            James Lawrence should be absolutely nowhere near an international squad. Especially when James Chester is fit and playing regularly.

                            What the **** has Tom Lawrence done to be picked?

                            We all know Vaulks is a limited player but how is he behind Sheehan, Smith and Levitt? It was great for Sheehan to get a call up but is he seriously now going to be a long term option for us? A ****ing 4th division player?!

                            Even someone like Robbie Burton is more deserving of a spot.

                            You just know he'll line up with Morrell and Smith against Belgium too.
                            I read that Lawrence is only available for the Belgium game due to covid travel restrictions. Even more baffling, especially as he'll probably be sat on the bench for that game.

                              He'll start as Davies' replacement on the left of a back 3

                                Possible, i'm thinking that with Allen fit they might drop Ampadu back in there with Mepham and Rondon.
