Don't think that will be the exact line up

Page doesn’t have to play a totally weekend team tomorrow.
What harm would it do to play a few experianced players to help the youngsters and then mix it up again for the next game.

At what point is it humiliating then, if the B team lose? A slightly rotated first team? This is a team that's won 8 games and doesn't even have an EFL regular in its ranks. Even our supposed C team has Championship regulars and players who've scored in European football It's purely hypothetical that we'll lose and I don't think we will so I won't go on, but I find your assertion that losing to them wouldn't be humiliating and is a case of "So what?" baffling to say the least I'm surprised you find it baffling to be honest. What material impact would losing actually have? A minority of Welsh fans will even watch this game, it has no impact on our qualification chances. I can't see any material harm coming from a defeat really Because you know a poor result here and it's all over the news headlines and trending on social media straight after the game. A loss to Gibraltar would truly be one of the worst results in our history. Remember when we lost to Leyton Orient? That was also a meaningless friendly but it's still talked about decades later. |

You know the UK media would love a Wales loss to go alongside England and Scotland going to the Euros. Not good for the young lads either coming through getting a debut and having a loss to a minnow. We need to protect the young lads from these situations, although I would find it embarrassing if any Wales team lost to Gibraltar. |

Anybody know if any tickets going spare or if there's been a change of policy and they'll make them available to buy on gate?

I have tickets, trying to sort out mates. Gibraltar claiming a sell out which is ridiculous

Not sure what all this talk of a defeat is all about, there’s more than enough quality there to beat Gibraltar, despite the lack of experience.

4 at the back?
Davies
Stevens-Low-Cabango-Dasilva
Sheehan-Savage
Burns-Colwill-Matondo
Cullen
That's what it looks like to me

An opportunity for Savage, Cullen, Da Silva, Matondo and Colwill especially.

Davies Stevens-Low-Cabango-Dasilva Sheehan-Savage Burns-Colwill-Matondo Cullen That's what it looks like to me That was my first thought and probably will be how we play, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re going with a back 5 with Burns at RWB, Stevens at LWB (or the other way around) and Da Silva at LCB. I think I’ve read Ben Davies won’t be fit enough to play either game, so he may want to give Da Silva minutes there in preparation for the Slovakia game? |

Can't see DaSilva playing left side centre back. Short lad only 5ft7. Wouldn't say it's his profile to play centre half. Maybe Stevens with Burns at wing back

I don't think you learn much by playing teams like Puffin Island, nothing happening . 😴

Is Matando gonna stop dicking about? Have to question why we need to start Matondo when he’s been looked at numerous times before. |

For a defender Cabango has got shocking reading of a cross. He's been free at that back post so many times and hasn't got a header right.

Like watching two non-league teams
Glad I missed the first 30 mins
Hopefully the midfield changes soon - Savage and Sheehan should be nowhere near an international team

Fair play to those who travelled out to watch this considering the weather looks a bit cloudy as well.
I think Colwill and Low have done okay, but it's not the best game so far.

Take Matondo off and play with ten, I don't think anybody would notice..

Pretty woeful performance, but pretty predictable to be fair when looking at the players and the coaching.
No cutting edge at all.
Page needs to take a leaf out of Rhian Wilkinsons book on how to manage from the touchline, never seen such a passive looking manager.
