A bad time to be a Welsh supporter

Re: A bad time to be a Welsh supporter

Can anyone think of a Wales player that would get into the England team?

In the past even when we didn't qualify for anything there were quite a few.

Rush, Giggs, Hughes, Bale in his prime.

It is a travesty we didn't make USA 94 given the squad we had but we did patch up some areas of it with ordinary players.

Yes in the past, and Southall, and maybe Speed, but in the current squad none would get anywhere near.

Re: A bad time to be a Welsh supporter

Good reply you make some good points :thumbup:

There are lots of players that start off well and fade, I don't think he will be half a Bale but let's hope so :thumbup:

The players you mentioned would all be ahead of him in the starting line up I think and then above them would be;

Harry Kane
Marcus Rashford
Ivan Toney
Mason Greenwood
Tammy Abram
Olie Watkins
and probably even Patrick Bamford, he wouldn't get a look in for a while yet, and he's our great hope!

It's a game of opinions so I won't argue against each player on the list in turn, especially as a few aren't his direct competition in terms of position but I think should he continue his present form there'd be plenty of shouts for him to be in England's squad in March, even despite his Wales caps!

I reckon they'd take Ben Davies

This is a good England team

Great player he was a massive loss to us in the semi-final in 2016, maybe?

No.

Not sure some in the squad deserve to be there even.
Gunter and Johnny Williams going along to the world cup as they're good for the dressing room for example.

Ahead of who?

Ratcliffe would have also had England caps, captain of an Everton side who were in their pomp, League Champions, Cup Winners, ECWC winners. Heysel, perhaps, hit them more than most with the ban on English clubs.

Maguire

Yeah, Collins wasn't really an adequate replacement at that point

Ramsey was the real loss, Andy King was a solid pro but nowhere near Rambo's quality, especially the way he was playing. Such silly bookings as well

Ramsey was the loss. Davies was a miss but it wouldn't have mattered who was centre half with Ronaldo's header. Ramsey might have been able to open them up. I bet if Coleman has that one back, he starts with Vokes up top, too.

Still looking bleak, Cardiff looking worse and may go down, the Rugby is worse again, Swansea are rubbish, and Wales losing Allen, and no one coming through, it's going to be a crap few years!
