I think we can finish 2nd

Looking at the group, Belgium will be sure to win it. Well above anyone else in the group.

Then I'd consider us equals with Bosnia and better than Israel, Cyprus and Andorra.

Yeah, Bosnia have some good players but so do we.

I think Vokes will be crucial for us if he keeps up his current form.

Play-offs should be minimum for us, but there's no reason we can't qualify automatically.

will be tough to finish second, home form will have a huge part.

In the last campiegn we lost against macedonia, we need 6 points against cyprus for sure, but going away to Bosnia, Belgium and Isreal we can quite easily get nothing out of all three of them.

Bosnia will be difficult I'm sure they scored something like 30 goals in their last campaign. We can certainly aim for 3rd and if we can keep the squad fit then I don't see why we can't get 2nd

If Dzeko is injured they have nothing. If we play well, we will beat them.

First 3 games are vital, 6-9 points on the board would put us straight in the running. Anything less I don't see us standing a chance.

If we can get some wins together we might get the buzz back we got rambo to come back and a few options.

should hll be playing gabbidon? I dont know. We need to try and find the next big welsh defender and a striker

Funny how underestimated Bosnia are, they have almost as good a generation as Belgium but much more experience in the squad, I expect them to win that group and go far in the World Cup.

Such an ignorant comment (which is to expect from you)

Vedad Ibisevic has been very good in the Bundesliga for the past few season.

Forgetting Pjanic as well? Spahic an experienced and solid defender, Begovic one of the best keepers in the Premier League.

Not to mention Salihovic, Lulic and Medunjanin.

There is more to football than the Premier league you know.

P.S Bosnia beat us a few years ago without Dzeko doing much
