who was your MoM?
Bale, Hal Robson Kanu & Taylor for me were outstanding along with Cotteril who Coleman stumbled into finding out he is worthy of a starting 11 birth. Williams & Chester were excellent too, Gunter played with high energy. I'm going through the whole team as they really pulled together and getting good performances. Ledley was excellent, I must stop there.
One thing I have to say is the move to Spurs for Ben Davies has not been good for his career. Taylor got the LB role and can't disagree on current form. Davies is not playing football and he looked shaky against Bosnia, albeit being played out of position. I think he's made a mistake to join Spurs. The jacks got it right getting in Sigurdsson again, what a technique he has. scored 2 against Netherlands!!

Id say Robson-Kanu. He was excellent when he came on in the last match too, miss aside. For me, yesterday, Bale almost tried to do too much but his natural ability will always make him one of our better players even on a bad day. But like you said, everyone played well and im so proud of this team at the moment as it looked bleak for so long. It seems its finally clicked. As typified by Kanu's goal, it was a very good team performance against a side that beat Bosnia.

Its amazing that so many can only praise the manager through gritted teeth and look for other reasons why we won. Best start to a campaign for 12 years, so cant fault him. BBC tonight are going with....
"A tactically disciplined display was enough, however, for a precious three points which gives Wales their best start to a qualifying campaign since 2002."
