Rubin Colwill not in Wales matchday squad

Thu Mar 26, 2026 11:21 am

UEFA squad list showing Adam Davies, Rubin Colwill and Rabbi Matondo have not made Wales’ 23-man squad for tonight.

They were named in the 26-man squad for this international window but the matchday squad can only have 23 players.

Think it's pretty obvious Bellamy doesn't fancy rubin, I think he's a much better option than certain other players off the bench but I'm quite happy he's not playing as I don't want any of our players getting injured

Shocking how mark Harris continues to be favoured above Rubin. Harris only brings chasing down opponents. At least Rubin has the skill and potential moment of magic that we may need

My biggest concern here is that whenever Rubin has returned from international duty, and he hasn't been involved, (which is most of the time), he is way off his best. It's as if he has all his enthusiasm knocked out of him and loses all confidence in his ability. :sad7: It usually takes quite a few games to get him back on top of his game. I hope this time he comes back and smashes it, and takes it out on the league teams for the last 7 games. :thumbup:

If he comes back any worse than his last couple of games that would be some achievement. lol.

Bellamy is a BTEC Marcelo Bielsa, no way Rubin is anywhere near this system. He just wants runners; that's his game plan. Against an old school team and manager, he came unstuck

Monty,

If you look at Bellamy Results, His Wins are against the poor Countries who have never achieved anything.
He never beats a good standard International Country.

To be honest I was more frustrated that he didn't use Joel when Jordan James had to go off.
