Re: FT: WALES 2 - 4 BELGIUM. Match thread

Another thing I noticed, Belgium were aware that Ben Davies hadn't played a club game all season, so they shifted Doku over to the right-hand side, who then proceeded to take the piss out of us all night. Why didn't we play somebody there who had the legs to stick to him like glue? If ever there was a case for staying close to an individual opponent that was it.

As soon as Keiffer came on we scored.Harris just runs around.Belgium's one fraility was high balls into the box.I really don' know what Bellemy's game plan was.

I think his game plan was obvious from the outset, Harris, Thomas & Brooks playing on the shoulder with James & Wilson breaking through the middle. The problem was we were not capable of putting the ball into the space behind Belgium.

You could also say we started well compared to the England and previous Belgium game, so that could have vindicated the choice of opponents, but it wasn't sustainable and we soon reverted to type. I think he has to look at the system he is using and take into account the overall ability ability of the squad.

The start really surprised me and Belgium by the looks of it, but it's a shame t was so short-lived, that penalty killed us.

Blah blah blah whatever we lost no surprise to me at all. No point arguing over who killed who.

Doku would have taken the piss out of a defender who stuck like glue to him, wouldn’t have made an iota of difference. He’s way too cute, skilful & fast than anyone we have to offer. Nothing to be be ashamed or angry about, he’s just much better than anyone we have at the moment.

Doku was playing his own little game within a game which was actually incredible to watch, and it was ridiculous how easily we allowed him to get away with it.

I blame the Red Wall halfwits who chanted "You're just a shit Sorba Thomas..." at De Bruyne for the loss personally.

Sorta did display some De Bruyne esque defending for their second goal mind.

Brooks will tear you apart was quite funny when he was subbed as well.

I enjoy the atmosphere in the Cymru matches but they don't go off script with the songbook and sometimes the songs/support don't have anything to do with what's going on in the game.

There's also a higher number of absolute wallopers at the games. I'm all for 'Together Stronger' unless I got the village fuuckwit from Llanphuckdilldo sat by me resplendent in his bucket hat and 1980s Adidas DH Gate special sat by me.

My own fault for buying campaign tickets.

Doku ripped us apart in both games but he’s not superhuman, he couldn’t break the North Macedonian defence the previous Thursday. We did seem to give him a huge helping hand hand by giving him plenty of space to run at Davies

Feel lucky that his mammy hadn't bought him one of those vuvuzelas for the game :hehe:
