    You can be 90% the player you are at 35 as you were at 25 nowadays.....unless you are injury prone.

    With Rambo, I know he's had knocks but for the type of position he plays on the field It doesn't make sense to me, on the face of it, that he should be "done" at this level. Seems a bit melodramatic.

    I got the feeling the players didn't believe in themselves much at the last euros and you get the vibe they are just kind of winging it , or muddling their way through games with a bit of guts and moments of inspiration. My suspicion is that the coaching and tactical side of the game is probably not up to the standard as opposed to the players....or at least that this part of the setup contributes a fair bit to our shoddy displays.

      Iran will fancy their chances against us definitely and if we start the England game as we did tonight against the USA, they will slaughter us. Hope I'm wrong of course but sadly I foresee an early departure. My heart sank when Moore came on but I must admit his time at Bournemouth has been beneficial by the look of it. He certainly looked less of a "headless chicken" than he used to do at City.

I didn't get as emotional as I thought I would at either of the Euros even being there in person in France, but this one has hit different tonight.
        Nice post.


        ....did you write it yourself?


        Seriously though, that's the spirit.

          Don't quite understand the Rambo is past it stuff. He's been inconsistent his entire career including for Wales. He's worth his place in the side because when he's good he makes things happen. The likes of James can't and shouldn't be carried.

            They gave Bale man of the match ffs

            I think Bale should be coming off the bench, he’s not fit or sharp enough to start. Ramsey played a lot better second half, and hopefully he grows into the tournament.

            I thought Mepham and Ampadu were our best players. Maybe Neco until he went off.

            We’re a much better side with Moore in it.

            Not a bad point really, USA are no mugs.

                When he scored 20 odd goals? I agree he’s improved, a lot tidier and more composed.

                  For a guy who is 6 ft 5 , Moore is a useful player

                      we've got a point and our players have been 'blooded' on the WC stage.

                      I think we've done very well and credit to all.

                        The USA is 100x bigger than Wales in population; 450x bigger in land mass and more than 200x bigger in GDP.

                        We are minnows.

                        But 11 v 11 and 1- 1, so who cares. And better fans and anthems!

                          Did anyone see Steve Morison on SSN at half time?

                          He was the match pundit (did well I thought) and was asked what he would do to change things after a dire first half.

                          Answer: bring on Kieffer Moore, Rubin Colwill and Mark Harris!
