Wales v Latvia

[jasper_T]

Played the last half hour like we were just hoping one would be enough. Tired players recycling the ball instead of playing forward. Page even saving his subs for extra time timewasting. Small time mentality.

Pleased for Ollie but 2 minutes is crazy when three of the front line had been blowing for 20.

Happy with 4 points from the first 2 games. Better than expected really.

That‘ll do I suppose. Unlucky not to have scored a couple more. All credit to their keeper. We got a bit sloppy in the last 30 minutes though.

Scotland beating Spain 2-0.

Overall good win, bit scrappy in parts, played some nice football. No game is easy at this level. I didnt expect a point the other night, so all in all, we're in a good position. Ward looked solid in goal. Nico ran his socks off. Yeah overall tidy.

Considering Croatia's home record and I was surprised to read that Latvia didn't lose a single away game in their last world cup qualifying campaign then I am extremely happy with four points.

Pleased as well for Ollie though I feel that once again Page was making the wrong tactical decisions and played to hold on to 1-0 after we started tiring on 70 mins rather than refresh the front line which was keeping Latvia penned in.

Got to be happy with four points from the first two games, Croatia helped us out winning in Turkey tonight too. Four more from the next double header and we’ll be in with a great shout.

There was good stuff and bad stuff.. Page needs to drop Ramsey, but will he ever drop him, probably not, hasn't got the minerals to make big decisions.. Armenia next up, they're a bit better than Latvia, and caused a few upsets in the World Cup qualifiers, then Turkey.. still not convinced Page is the man

Four from the first two games is at least one more than anyone could have hopes for. Job done tonight.

 

[Niigata Jack]

Nico Williams has been excellent

Very decent player, played well tonight.
I thought we were a bit laboured in that 2nd half though.
Pity Nico's effort didn't go in, that goes in and the confidence goes up a notch.
At the end of the day its 4 points out of two games, which is a very decent return especially when one point came from Croatia away.
Onwards and upwards.

Four from the first two games is at least one more than anyone could have hopes for. Job done tonight.

Disappointing World Cup.

Multiple retirements, including our best ever player and a very good one in Joe Allen.

2 of our best players, Ben Davies and Brennan Johnson, unavailable (thanks for that Cooper, you d*ckhead).

7 uncapped players in the squad.

Given all that, 4 points from 2 games is a fantastic return, especially when one of those games was the most difficult fixture of them all. If Page turns us into a hard to beat team that can snatch enough 1-0 wins to get us top 2 in this group, that would be a superb achievement in my eyes.

 

[Malaga]

With Ben Brennan and Brooks in the team for the next round of games we should be fine. 4 points so far is fine

 

[Swansea93]

Cooper over Morrell?

 

[Cinio Dydd Sul]

There were periods of Russell Martin pointless ambitionless football there tonight.

But 4 points exceeds all expectations.

Long time to the next camp, by which time the new staff will hopefully be influencing things.

 

[Baron Goblet]

We looked okay.
A Dan James : Keifer More combo to win the game.
A clean sheet and some decent defending.
