There'll either be euphoria and excitement for Tuesday come 4pm tomorrow or complete despair. The latter would be absolutely fking shite.
Reckon they'll get Dafydd there for Tuesday if we win tomorrow?

We are going to win this.
Not beautiful and not comfortably, but we will win.
Croatia to drop points in Riga.
Although the Turks are going to get shishkababed on Tuesday, there will be plenty of sweet tea drunk all thro the night :+)

Final lineup prediction...
Ward
Mepham-Rodon-Davies
Connor-JJ-Ampadu-DJ
Brooks-Wilson
Moore
It could be the exact same lineup as Croatia, but I've got a funny feeling about DJ given his red hot streak and given he's been tried at LWB recently, combined with the fact Neco hasn't played much recently

I think we can all agree on the first 8 players, it's just that front 3 there's a massive question mark around. As I've said before, part of me is concerned about losing the double-10 and box midfield 4 (however you want to describe it) that brought such good balance last time. But equally DJ's in brilliant form, Brennan's doing well at Spurs, and we've got 2 games in 3 days to manage. So I'll leave that to Page! |

Be the same ones who gave away their tickets for the croatia game and now have a go at anyone asking for a ticket for Turkey. If we play a first XI out in Armenia i cant see us having a problem though. |

Neco hasn't been playing. In a sense it's a big call if we continue to go with a Neco who is less and less match sharp by the month too. Big call either way imo, but for what it's worth I think Page will go with Neco. I'd personally go for James |

James as a wing back may well work, but I'd rather not try it in a must win away game I'd personally bring him in for Brooks, give more cover to Neco who may be less match fit and offer more direct pace. Brooks and Johnson to come on off the bench |

This doesn't look good. Anyone know what's happened? We tend to pride ourselves on the behaviour of our fans awat from home. But something has clearly gone ver wrong here. |

I know someone who was arrested. 50/60 lads were just standing waiting for taxi’s, then they got tackled from behind by loads of cops, handcuffed and chucked in vans. Bizarre. Bunch of pricks.

I’m surprised at Dan James not starting. Still, Page knows better than me.

Me too. You don't pick the same team as a reward for how they performed in the last match
Brooks was outstanding against Croatia but he has not played since. So Wilson could have played in his position and James out wide. I love Brooks but how many times do we need to learn the lesson in terms of picking players that are playing regularly and playing very well over players that did something in the last match or past?
Hope we don't regret it. It was perhaps the easy decision to make and fits in with the loyalty first approach of Page but not sure its the smartest decision, especially as Dan James is on fire right now. The work rate of James is epic too and we have decided to do without that
You could argue our best two players are on the bench!

BTW - just to balance things out The team he has picked is better balanced. My main concern is whether Brooks is match fit enough? Maybe he is - they see him and measure his metrics in training so lets hope its a decision informed by the evidence |

Yes, a bit surprised that Brooks is starting considering his lack of game time. On the plus front, to have James and Johnson to come on against a tiring Armenia side should be a daunting prospect for them. Changing things at half time may make a lot of sense.

Have to say i find it a bit strange page saying how can he change the side after what they did against Croatia,loyalty is good but surely you pick a team for todays game not the team you just played.but then James coming on against a tiring team when he is full of form isn't the worst idea in the world,i guess we will see.

Abysmal start, are we complacent when we play these poorer teams are are we on their level.
Just seems like we cannot get up for playing them.
Need a big turn around now.

The starting 11 was very confusing to me. What's the real formation here?
If we lose it's on us. Been plenty of Warning shots that Page is out of his depth. In fact not even warning shots there been about 5 strikes.
