I think our U21 team would have done better.

Wales are 19 places above Slovakia in the Fifa world rankings.

So James is now a "10"....christ, the only man in the world who believes Dan James has a first touch !!!!

Were we required to play 2 friendlies this month?

Re: SLOVAKIA v WALES. Match thread

Our midfield has hardly touched the ball, but good thing we're giving a 29 year old League 1 player some caps...

Nothing against Sheehan, but he's hit his potential, he won't get any better.

Just getting minutes the younger kids should be getting.

Pretty annoying.

He's now brought Cullen on in that position. You couldn't make it up

I’d be interested to know where people think this line up would finish in the EFL. I’d say mid League 1. I don’t necessarily blame the manager for that, it’s our player pool we are stuck with, but it’s almost time for the ‘he’s taken the team as far as he can’ phrase.

Awful display.

Not sure what he sees in Cullen. He's not a 10 ffs

It reminds me a little of the Welsh rugby team who milked ever ounce out of the golden generation without preparing for what was to come.

I think a decent manager could make a team out of our player pool but Page isn't a decent manager. When he is finally ousted from the Wales Manager role I'd be amazed if he ended up as a manager in the football league.

Relax fellas, we're only two years into our 10-year transition. Page has got this

That’s the thing really, he seems a decent bloke and proud Welshman but not sure he would get a job even in league 2

The players really look like they don’t want to be playing this game, Brennan Johnson especially!

The transition under Toshack was painful at times but at least he set out what he was trying to do.

I've no clue what Page's transition plan is.

Doubt whether they do, their seasons would've finished weeks ago, and they've had to continue training, eating into their holiday time before they go back for pre-season, for two meaningless friendlies.

Anyone else think Kieffer would be a much better player if he had both of his arms taped to his body?
