On paper... and I stress on paper..Our first choice XI is one of the most tallented and balanced we've had in a very very long time.
We're in need of another reliable centre half and a striker, (dare I say it but a certain Ched Evans will be playing next season) but with the terrible choice we have against Holloand I'd play Bale as a false 9. However, everyone being fit and available would give us a potential starting XI:
GK: Hennesey
DR: Adam Matthews
DL: Neil Taylor
DC: Ashley Williams
DC: James Collins
MF: Joe Ledley
MF: Joe Allen
MF: Aaron Ramsey
MF: David Vaugham
MF: Gareth Bale
ST: Sam Vokes
Bench: Fon Williams, Gabbidon, Chester, King, Robson-Kanu, Morrison, Huws
This is a team that is capable of competing with any side and with ,on current form in my opinion, the best british midfielder in Ramsey and the best British attacker in Bale, we'll always cause sides problems when we attack them.
Don't get me wrong I am not saying for a minute we're going to qualify for anything but it really could be as exciting as when old Terry Yorath was juggling 4 of the best attackers in British football in his team.

Instead of Vaughan I'd rather Jonny Williams, play him on the left with Bale on the right and Rambo in the centre. Or maybe Declan John on the left?

Holland using this game as a warm up to build momemtum they will be expecting to win this 4,5 or 6-0
Anything short of 2-0 will be a good result

I don't think they will think they can win this easy, we drew with Belgium away and we all know how talented their side is.
