At this rate the way we've been playing I don't suppose we have anything to lose by starting either Cabango and Fox. Can't be much worse. We may have to start one of them anyway with Davies out of the squad Any reason why we've ignored Regan Poole? A big omission for me. A good defender who is versatile and captain of a decent League One club (before leaving). Has to be included in future imo

Wayne HAS to start. Ward was terrible. He's also had a terrible season with Leicester. Most managers would drop him for Turkey but I honestly feel Page won't do that. Ward couldn't do anything about any of the goals, all 4 were absolutely buried by the Armenia forwards. As bad as Ward's season has been, Forest signed a new keeper rather than play Wayne, so Wayne's season has been way worse It was Navas, I think we can let him off there. Kept out of the team by someone who's just come from PSG, multi Champions League winner with Real Madrid.

Kept out of the team by someone who's just come from PSG, multi Champions League winner with Real Madrid. They signed him specifically because they were faced with the prospect of having to play Hennessey! Henderson was injured, I think Hennessey played one or two games, and they rushed out to sign Navas because they couldn't face the prospect of having to play Wayne I love Wayne, but he's not the player he was, he really struggled out in Qatar, and I think he's coming to the end of his career. I don't like that Ward is currently our only option, but he is the best of a bad bunch

Waynes saves against Hungary and Ukraine were a big part of us getting to those tournaments'maybe he should get another chance as all ward seems to do is wave at the ball as it goes past him.,

-----------Hennessey
Roberts---Mepham--Rodon---Williams
--------Ampadu---Morrell
----Wilson---Ramsey---James
------------Johnson
I'd be Ok with a back 5 (adding Cabango), and okish with a 4-3-3 as well. The main thing is that Ampadu and Morrell anchor the midfield.

Think this will be my final go at picking one of the most difficult to call lineups I can remember under Page;
Ward Roberts-Cabango-Mepham-Neco Ampadu-Morrell Brennan-Ramsey-DJ Bradshaw
I flip-flop on this every hour, so I can't really call it. Only players who I think will be certain are Ampadu, Morrell, Ramsey, Brennan & DJ. Other than that it's anyone's guess

I don't, which is a shame, as he'd be more effective out right in an attacking sense.

I think I've got past the point of thinking lineups will make a difference now.
The players look unsettled, unmotivated and unhappy.
Ramsey in particular has looked incredibly dejected.

Bradshaw is a hard worker too

Trying to overcome all the negativity since Friday night, and basing this on no compelling concrete evidence, I'm going for a 2-1 win for us tonight.
But hey, don't listen to me ... I thought we could beat Armenia 3-0!
Then again... you never know...

For some reason I’m more hyped than ever about tonight’s game.
Maybe it’s because of all the negativity and the fact that the knives are out for us but I’m absolutely buzzing.
Would be absolutely unbelievable if we can get a result tonight after all that’s happened since Fridays disaster.
Crazier things have happened in football.
COME ON WALES!!!!

It must be nice to positive, I for one am considering just going to 5-a-side and not even watching it tonight. A win will only carry on to paper over the cracks under Page. I haven't felt this disillusioned about us since the Gould era. Even under Toshack there was hope because of the young talent. The football has been dire, but Page and his passive aggressive comments towards the fanbase is turning me off even supporting

A win might paper over the cracks, but the alternative is to lose and be set back even further (In fact any talk of us losing, immediately getting rid of Page, replacing him with a new manger and firing onto glory from there is optimistic in the extreme)

I have to say that since the Denmark game we've looked like we struggle to take a punch, once we go behind that's generally it and if it isn't we'll then wait until the last minute for it to be just that.

Trying to look on the positive, team selection tonight actually forces Page to choose a system and a team without certain regulars that can get a result so let's see what he comes up with.

You never know but always a tough gig without top stars. Scotland were a 20 year proof of that. Now they got some big guns it’s a different story. There is hope though. When Wales were in a dreadful place around 2006-8 I remember a Danish guy in one of my bars in Guatemala saying ‘never give up on your country producing star players’. Bale, Ramsey……….Semi Final Euro 2016
