    surely there will be a big sanction for Denmark if this happens given it undoubtedly brings the competition into disrepute?
    A few more injuries / withdrawls and we will be calling up Dustin The Turkey (unless England have a word in his emm ear)

    It's absolutely ridiculous we are not taking these Nations League games seriously. This is our best chance of getting into Euro 2020.

    What makes you think we're not taking the competition seriously?

    We appear to be taking it more seriously than the Danes...

    I'd say we are talking it seriously, because even someones of MONs levels of detached aloof arrogance is now aware, albeit only recently and only just, that the collective have had enough of him & he may not survive a collapse, I say collapse, I mean another collapse, of course.

    I would say O'Dowda is a certain starter now McClean is out.

    It's a flimsy looking squad. This could be very bad.

    Maybe he injured it fighting...
    Well I guess it's official now... this is another rebuild week for the national team... a chance for the youngsters to stake a claim... just look at it that way and we'll all feel better about the results. So, new starting XI

    -----------McDermott----------

    Doherty---Long---Egan---Stevens

    Horgan---Hourihane---Browne---O'Dowda

    --------Burke-----Robinson-------------

    Wait a minute... where did Shane Long go?!

    -------------Randolph------------


    Coleman---Duffy---Clark---Ward


    --Hendrick---Meyler---Browne--


    ------Robinson---O'Dowda------


    -------------Walters--------------


    I'm thinking he'll go with something like this. Clark & Long a toss of a coin, both if Duffy doesn't make it. Horgan over Robinson a possibility too maybe.

    OK, I’m always naively optimistic but I think we can do something with what’s available to us.

    Randolph is on form and has kept 5 consecutive clean sheets. Coleman, Doherty, Duffy, K. Long, Clark, Hendrick, Ward, Browne, O’Dowda, Hourihane, Wiliams, Horgan, Robinson, Burke, Walters, Judge, Meyler, Stevens, McGoldrick, Egan....these are all good players. Not flawless by any means but if you take a glass half-full view of each one there’s ability there.

    An XI made up from players like this ought to be well-balanced and competitive. I saw Williams for Millwall at the weekend and while he may be a bit lazy tracking back he is an absolute dude on the ball. Almost Alonso-like in his head-up nonchalance and passing accuracy. Great dead ball delivery too.

    It’s down to management to put the team together with a good mix of ball winning and ball using ability, with a well-communicated plan.

    That said I’m struggling to put together my XI.

    2 CBs, 2 wing-backs:

    -------------------------Randolph
    -------------Long - Duffy -----Clark (though Lenihan impressed me vs USA)
    Coleman------------------------Stevens/Ward
    --------------Meyler ----Hendrick---------
    -------O’Dowda------------Horgan
    ----------------Walters

    Doherty (a few positions) Browne, Wlliams, Robinson and Burke all unlucky not to make this XI

    4 at the back

    Coleman-Duffy-Clark-Doherty (Stevens/Ward)
    Doherty/O’Dowda—Meyler-Hendrick---Horgan
    ------Robinson---Walters--

    I would say Robinson will start regardless of the formation, he can play anywhere across the middle and upfront.

    It's on Sky Sports (Main Event).

    The Welsh channel, S4/C have also secured rights to all of Wales Nation Cup/Euro 2020 games, but I'm not sure you can access that through the Sky platform over here anymore.
