Back to a back five with Ampadu in there? Neco - Ampadu - Rodon - Mepham - Roberts ? i dont think so, we are playing back 4 these days |

Bollocks! I know Friday was our own fault but those two later than late goals in the two Latvia games have also done some damage. Things would be looking a tad prettier if Latvia had taken points off Turkey and Armenia |

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. 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 So they decided to get a World class keeper instead of Hennessey, not because he was available and is a massive opportunity for the club. They wouldn't have turned him down no matter what happened. |

Given that Page has gone for the same selection as the one I posted I'm not going to complain... We could be playing a 4-3-3, but I imagine it will be a 4-2-3-1, with Ramsey in the hole. The other question is who starts up front, James or Johnson. Pretty sure it will be the latter, so that we don't have to depend on his non-existent tracking back.
Feel cautiously optimistic. We've generally done ok under Page when he's gone for the most obvious selection and formation. It's generally when he tries things that most people think are bad decisions, such as Ramsey as a holding midfielder, that things go wrong.

Strange the only changes he's made are forced on him. 3/4 of the awful defence are playing, Davies would have been too no doubt. Maybe he is putting the blame on Ramsey not covering, but I'm guessing it's because Moore is suspended. |

Friday's result looks even crapper now, I think we have to take 4 points from Turkey and maximum points from Armenia and Latvia away

Speaking of red cards, I reckon we’ll be seeing one tonight. Roberts, Ampadu, Wilson, Mepham…..in no particular order.

Mepham is more concerned with the linesman than getting his own feet in order. He looked liked a tailors dummy ffs

Interesting stat from s4c. Only 4 from this Turkey starting 11 played in the Euro match. 9 from our starting 11 played. Shows how little transition and progress theres been in terms of developing and introducing players.

I don't understand how Mepham is a premier league defender based on these displays

Shows how little transition and progress theres been in terms of developing and introducing players. Bale, Allen and Moore started that game, neither are on the pitch. Look at their pool compared to ours, we're not great at the minute but we're nearly always punching above. |

Why are we incapable of playing a single accurate pass when attacking them towards the danger zone?
