It was just like watching Brazil

A rare opportunity to see Wales in action this morning against Brazil.

Looked quite good, not sure about Earnie & Bellamy as a pair. Maybe John Hartson will be part of future squads to add a more physical dimension to the attack.

Collins seems to be developing into an international class defender. Rubbing shoulders with the premiership stars seems to be knocking the rough edges of his game. Tough tackling, uncompromising and not afraid to stick his body on the line.

Paul Jones exceeded expectations but not sure he’s the solution for the Euro campaign although the alternatives don’t really scream out for inclusion. Can’t see Brown getting many first team opportunities at Blackburn unless the ever dependable Friedel picks up an injury.

Simon Davies seems to have lost his away a bit over the past couple of seasons. He didn’t perform very well.

Giggs was great, shame he didn’t come out again in the second half.

Bale's a great prospect and Nyatanga looked comfortable in exalted company.

Hopefully, the results on Wednesday will be kind to Wales (Go San Marino!) and they can put back to back wins together in their next two home games to keep us interested.

Didn’t see the Czech game although it sounded like history repeating. Dodgy decisions and denied at the death.

Still hope springs eternal.
