Has to be 23 man squad for these UEFA sanctioned friendlies. Makes sense that it's Cullen. He should be starting as he could play with Moore for sure. We won’t learn anything tonight. Wasted chance. |

My take: - It's interesting opposition. We rarely play teams outside of UEFA and South Korea have some big names - Â Looking at the South Korea team list most of them have quite short names. |

Phil Cadden reporting Hennessey and Cullen not in tonight’s 23. I give up with Page. This would’ve been the perfect chance to start Cullen alongside Moore - cause let’s face it Moore is playing tonight - but to not even name him in the 23, especially when Rabbi M was a late call up, is going to do nothing for Cullen. If we don’t win Monday, and particularly if we don’t put in a good performance, I question if I can be bothered anymore. Page is making me fall out of love with our nation’s national team, something not even playing in Llanelli did. Every single decision he makes lately is infuriating, 4 keepers, two banned players. What is the point? |

Why in Ramsey in the squad?
He definitely won’t be playing any minutes.

What is the point? Come on! These have already been explained, it's quite tiresome at this point to hear this moaning being repeated Hennessey was touch and go with his injury, so 4 keepers were called up incase he had to drop out. He has now dropped out with injury. If Page only had 2 keepers in the squad after that I can GUARANTEE everyone would be moaning about how amateurish it is to call up only 2 keepers He's also stated he intends to use the two banned players in friendlies to prevent injuries. I'm for him doing that if it means we get a good look at Sheehan & JJ playing alongside Morrell I agree it's silly to include Moore as others deserve a chance, but it's hardly anything to get worked up over |

I think Ramsey, as skipper, may well start and then be brought off after say 30 mins.

Why in Ramsey in the squad? He definitely won’t be playing any minutes. Didn't think of that. It's not definitely what Page said but almost implied Ramsey won't be playing at he's just come off playing 90 minutes. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66667180"while Ramsey is among the first-team players set to be rested and new Tottenham signing Brennan Johnson could feature for a limited time. "It's about looking at the amount of minutes Aaron's played," said Page. "That one takes care of itself. Aaron's played the most football he's played [in a long time], he's off the back of 90 minutes. I think that's an obvious one. I think you know where I'm going with that one." |

We lack midfielders but our attacking options, in moore, brooks, brennan, matondo, bradshaw, wilson even cullen probably doesn't make the cut. |

Yeah I think we need Ramsey on the bench in case of a midfield crisis Imagine a red card and two injuries. Very unlikely, but in that instance we would need Ramsey |

If ever there was a chance to look at new players then tonight's match is it. Cullen has impressed in a struggling Swansea side, so we really should have been giving him some minutes tonight.
Page has said he didn't want tonight's match, so why not take an experimental approach? Is he that worried about losing? I know the pressure is on, but friendlies should be used to blood players on the fringes of the squad.

Ramsey will obviously start on the bench tonight but I'm fairly certain he'll come on for 15-20 mins at the end. He's captain and he wants 100 caps so I'd expect him to make an appearance in every game he's fit for, including friendlies, from here on out.

I know the pressure is on, but friendlies should be used to blood players on the fringes of the squad. I don't see the point in having Moore and Morrell there, they are out of the Latvia game so why are we not giving two others a chance and some game time vs Korea. Savage, Colwill, Harris etc. As good a time as any to get them in. |

Very unlikely, but in that instance we would need Ramsey There's Ampadu, Sheehan, Morrell, James and Wilson who can cover there Of the players listed only Moore & Bradshaw can be considered actual strikers. In Roberts, Burns and Williams we've selected 3 right backs, one of them could make way |

It’s a friendly ffs. we ony have 6 subs though Think matondo will get tested, its a test for brooks back in the side... we'll probably switch our full backs around, defence may be Cabango and rodon, swapping mepham with rodon, johnson will play some minutes, Sheehan and morrell i think will start and probably play 90, moore will play 90, the keeper 90, may give fox a chance, jordan james, broadhead Maybe davies misses out with ramsey There's only so many permutations |

If I’ve read that right it’s Coleman’s 3-4-1-2 (or 3-4-2-1).
Two holders and attacking wing-backs, Wilson in the Ramsey role, while Johnson plays the Bale role behind Broadhead’s HRK?
I like it

Would have preferred Sheehan to James, but on the whole I like that team. Hopefully 3-4-2-1, which would make us strong in the middle of the park.

Anyway, good start. James has looked solid in midfield, he's bigger than I remember |
