Wales will play the Czech Republic next week with a slight advantage as Kudela, who started in their 6-2 win against Estonia, is not travelling to the UK because he’s a scaredy racist oval office.

Italy not qualifying would be funny as gently caress but so would Ronald’s tantrum. North Macedonia qualifying definitely the best outcome overall.

There'll have to be investment into Windsor Park to get it to 30,000, which will benefit the Northern Irish FA massively I guess. The problem comes from trying to make sure it's not a 7 or 8 + 3 arrangement, though it probably breaks down that way because of size of leagues etc. FAI: Landsdowne Road - modern, 50k, all the bells and whistles IFA: Windsor Park - would need a massive refurb or new ground to meet criteria? FAW: Millennium Stadium - modernish, 70k Difficult because outside of that, all the big football stadiums are ones where the teams play in the EFL. If they're looking for a Welsh Premier league side ground to promote/gain investment, that's a lot of work and runs into long term feasibility problems quickly. SFA: Hampden - though it's poo poo Murrayfield - if the SFA can't stomach one of the Old Firm teams and want an Edinburgh venue? Ibrox - Celtic Park is suffering a lot from the same issues I see reported about Old Trafford, obviously 2028 is a long way away but idk if there are better options. FA (Trying not to end up just in London or with four grounds in 20 miles of each other): North East: St James' North West: Anfield/Everton's new ground? Yorkshire or they won't shut the gently caress up about it: Elland Road or the Riverside? Midlands: Villa Park or ? South: St Mary's/ The AmEx London: Emirates/Stamford Bridge/White Hart Lane. Though the FA would have to go for Wembley for the final, which might work against those three? Difficult to get a fair breakdown. The women's Euro's are deliberately clustered around Manchester in parts, but don't think the same would fly.

Myssu posted:The FAI are hoping to be able to offer Croke Park, which has a capacity of 82,300. Generally the GAA are pretty prickly about the idea of other sports being played there, but I imagine there would be some government pressure if its in the cause of landing a major international tournament. Don't they still ban footballers from playing gaelic sport? Can't see it unless there's a huge pile of cash offered

NinpoEspiritoSanto posted:Is it an underachievement for Scotland to fall in the playoff places? Ukraine are an objectively better team, whether what's going on in Ukraine right now is inspiring/detracting from them or not. Robertson aside, and I'm genuinely curious, who are the other world class players in the Scotland squad? In any one qualifying campaign, probably not. Over the piece, it’s clearly a concern. The best argument against the Robertson point is Wales. The most important/celebrated goal they’ve scored recently was by a Championship journeyman who didn’t have a club, against a team of world class players in every position. Their two most recognisable players in Bale and Ramsey available intermittently, but a team around them that’s young, coached properly and trusted. Clarke was beaten because he’s not a very good coach, surrounded by other not very good coaches, and his style is poo poo for international football. A stuffy 0-0 draw in the Euros might actually be his high point.

Wales are in very early stage talks with UEFA and FIFA about changing their name internationally from Wales to Cymru. Looking for after Qatar, so maybe Euro 24 or Nations League at the earliest? It’d be nice to see

Weirdly there’s no mention of the Football Association of Wales changing their name in the reporting, so the association name might stay English while the team name is in Welsh?

If Henderson plays a massive role in the game on Tuesday maybe it’s time to panic, but not running Bellingham into the ground in the first international window after he’s been carrying the Bernebau on his back seems sensible. Henderson’s also probably the most drilled at covering for an attacking full back out of the three, which lets Walker do more? Think for me, the front six is less 3 & 3 and more 2 & 4/ 2 & 3 & 1, with those 4 interchanging a lot; Code tagged with no thoughts of actual played position or knowledge of football and missing someone obvious. pre:First Choice || Second || U21/ Youth || Purple Patch / The Mark Noble Zone Rice || Phillips || ESR / Skipp? || Bellingham || Henderson || Jones? || Loftus-Cheek Wide - Saka || Rashford || || Bowen Grealish || Sterling || Gordon || Central - Foden || Maddison || Elliott || Gallagher / Mount / Ward-Prowse Kane || Wilson || Palmer || Watkins?
