Capt. Pants 4,202 Posted November 25, 2022 Tight game but wow what woeful quality. Ramsey and Roberts shocking, Bale not in the game. If Wales can up their game 2nd half they can still win this as that Iran defence has an error on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,933 Posted November 25, 2022 Well, Page is going flat-out with those changes. Not sure that'll work considering the problem is the balance in central midfield being skew-whiff (heck, it's like watching Norwich on occasion but the Wales central midfield is even more out of kilter). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,933 Posted November 25, 2022 Since when was the answer to "how do we resolve an imbalanced central midfield?" to get rid of pretty much all the central midfielders? A mediocre Wales side are throwing this away against a poor Iran side. Push this Iran side on the back foot, keep the ball with a bit of composure, and get it out wide, and Wales can easily take this. They're not doing that though - they're trying to force stuff that's not on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sort of agree but this looks like the best Iran have got. Page has got his calls massively wrong here, left his central midfield horribly imbalanced, and the Iranians have won that battle. Bringing Allen on is the right move, but Ramsey was the guy to take off, not Ampadu who's probably been their best player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
