Surprised there’s no thread on this but in a nutshell no Ben Davies, Aaron Ramsey, James Chester or Paul Dummett.
Disappointing that Davies is available for Spurs on Saturday but not for Wales a week later as he’s having an op.
No idea why Dummett is unavailable. Chester is no surprise as he still seems to be struggling with a knee injury.
So we are a bit light at the back but Ampadu is back.
I would go with
Hennessey
Roberts
Williams
Mepham
Taylor
Ampadu
Allen
Smith
Brooks
Wilson
Bale
No Dan James?
would find a place for James looking at the squad
would deffo put him in the starting 11 pearcey he's on fire at the minute
Surprised to see Tom Lockyer released by Bristol Rovers but it seems Hull and Forest are interested. Maybe we should be too. Also, seems bad management by Rovers to let your captain go for nothing.
Davies waiting for a hernia op, isn't he? Tyler Robert also having a surgery, Dummett has picked up an injury and Terry Taylor (Wolves youth) too. There are concerns on twitter that Chester may not play for Wales again as he seems to have picked up a long term injury that needs to be managed throughout the rest of his career.
Really good twitter page to follow for all the news: https://twitter.com/dragonsoccer58
Ben Davies scheduled for an op straight after Champions League Final.

Silly boy.
Just going from the age and level of a many players in the squad, we could probably have signed or could be a realistic destination for a fair few of the players in the squad.
I for one would be very happy if we adopted a model similar to that of Athletic Bilbao and tried to sign Welsh players. I feel like a lot is made of us as fans from Wales when we are in England and that our difference to the rest of the clubs in that respect has earned us some kudos. I reckon that if we had a strong core of 7/8/9 players who are eligible fir the national team it’s add to that sense of unity. I for one would feel more connected to the team if we had a Welsh core. That’s not to say that I’m standoffish with the current squad, but it’s definitely add something for me. That’s one of the reasons I’m not keen on NW and would like someone like Craig Bellamy to have a go.
I’m not 100% sure about his ability but he must have something about him if Manure wanted him.
Pretty much zero chance of that happening under NW though. I think that will be the most worrying thing about keeping him on as manager, he’s likely to leave an old-ish squad. Tough for whoever comes after him.
