A slightly odd thrashing. The early goal seemed to give us a swagger almost immediately and there were fancy flicks galore, most of which didn't go anywhere. Joe Allen tried a couple just outside our own penalty box and lost the ball twice. I should be happy with the confidence if I wasn't such a pessimist. Anyway, it's international football so you take what you can get and it gives us a chance to stay ahead of the Czechs - I assume if we lose by 1 on Tuesday and they win by 1, we stay ahead of them on the head to head?
Anybody know why Hennessey came on?
to give him a cap so he can get to 100 as well. they did it for Gunter a few times too.Originally Posted by delmbox
completely devalues the achievement in my opinion
Agree
And me 😕
What utter shite !!!!
So the other 97 count for nothing
Been a wonderful servant to Wales
97 well deserved caps it should stay at that.
I think pushing him over the 100 just to say he's got 100 seems a bit soft. Like giving out participation rewards at kids sports days.
If we're going to hand out caps just to get players to milestones we should do it in friendlies, not subbing goalkeepers with a couple of minutes left
Harsh!
It's not a dig at Wayne, he is simply a victim of the times.
So many games in a relatively short space of time these days and to get a cap for a token couple of minutes seems wrong to those who went before, especially when for years there were no subs.
You must remember those days shirley
Totally agree. I do think it's a box tick for a goalkeeper especially!
I mentioned that on here when they did it for Gunter and got a bit of stick in return
same here
It doesn’t bother me if Hennessy gets another cap in a game that’s been comfortably won already. He has been a loyal servant to the national team for well over a decade. I hope he reaches 100 caps.
