WALES STARTING 11

Hennessey, C Roberts, Rodon, Mepham, Davies, Ampadu, Morrell, Williams, T Roberts, Matondo, Moore

Shifty eyed Giggs lot to win

What the hell has happened to Ernie's accent ?

Nice to see they gave the great Peter Whittingham a mention in the pre game tribute to deceased players (only English I think)

Wales the better team so far but no clear cut chances.

Kieffer Moore and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have had half chances.

Ten minutes until half time.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin gave England the lead.

Moore goes off injured...

2-0.

Conor Coady.

2 shots 2 goals. Centre backs have been shocking.

The rest doing ok. Keeping the ball well.

3-0.

Danny Ings.

The 3 centre backs playing tonight are the worst centre backs I’ve seen for Wales for a long time

Sorry but the defence are dross

Have ITV got grealish on a loop as all I see is him falling over arms outstretched screaming!

Shambles defensively

Are these the quality Swansea defenders we keep hearing about ?

Expected nothing less tonight , pointless game with half a team against a very good young England side . Don't see the point in this game tonight

3 games in 6 days. Absolutely ridiculous we are even playing it.

Wasnt any point to it really not playing our normal tactics more like experiments! But guess learn one or two things along way. Takeaway poor marking at set pieces not really a lot in it Is there?

Welsh centre backs still social distancing. They are dreadful tbf

Second half has had a huge difference in class

First half was fairly even for first half hour until Moore went off . We've lost our way since that injury.

Defence was piss poor. Not a defender in touching distance for two of their goals. Moore going off injured killed the game for us. Had nothing going forward.

Still think it was an unnecessary game with the two games coming up.

yes its a bit mad , but its how its going to be under the new rules , i believe everyone has to play 3 during the international break in November too

England team were all Premier League regulars, we only had Ben Davies, rest were from Division 1, Championship or Premier League reserves, so much for our strength in depth!
