Thought so!

This Savage business pains me also. He'd make such a difference to our midfield if he was there, and he'd be the leader we obviously lack.

Tosh won't go back though.

Good for him too! He's building towards the next WC not this Euro one ... so his vision is a bit further out (Jeez ... I hope so anyway!)

Anyway good result last night ... cant ask for more than that

The young lads did us proud, and let's hope they get a good run of games now in this qualifying campaign.

We do lack experience but against teams like Cyprus we can get away with it. I'm hoping the younger lads will have gained some valued experience before they come up against the likes of the Germans, who seem to be flying at the moment.

It was a very good reaction last night to the defeat on Saturday, and it will have done the whole squad the world of good that win.

Well done lads!

A very good performance, particularly in the first half. I know it was only Cyprus that we beat, but there are many reasons for optimism within the squad.

We have some genuinely good players for the future in there (Bale, Nyatanga and Duffy in particular, and I was also impressed with Morgan last night) and Tosh seems to know how he wants the team to play against weaker opposition.

A special mention to Bellamy and Simon Davies who were superb again last night.

And we're up to 4th in the group. Happy Days

The thing is, a lot of them are just kids, and they'll probably make good players one day, but is it the right thing to be blooding them now? Whippings like 5-1 at home to Slovakia is not going to be good for their confidence, and at this level I'm sure a lot of teams (especially physical ones) will relish playing against teenagers. It might be a bumpy ride for your youngsters, especially against the Germans.

Dhavlos, we just don't have any choice but to blood the kids. There just isn't a big pool of players to choose from - that is obvious from Tosh having to consider bringing a very overweight, unfit Hartson back into the fold.

I'm a bit worried about the Germany game but fingers crossed that the senior players stay fit and the younger players start getting more regular club football.

The two games against the Rrepublic of Ireland will be interesting, especially with the way Toshack obviously wants the team to play.

I agree.

Hopefully we'll have the likes of Delaney, Collins, Ricketts, Giggs and Hartson to boost the squad then Tosh will have a decent one to pick from.

The youngsters reacted well though and deserve to be included in future games - not that we have much choice though. But they proved last night that they can compete at this level. But as has been said, the Germans will be a different kind of opposition, and we need some of the more exerienced players available for that one.

i'm very excited by bale, he was even attacking well last night, he's premiership bound.

and i'll be honest, for a season ticket holder, i didn't have a clue who morgan was, can someone enlighten me?

[Los Rojos]

I think he plays for MK Dons mate. He had a good debut IMO.

[Rocket]

And MK Dons centre back Craig Morgan, 21, made his full debut as he replaced Rob Edwards.

bloody hell, that back four is very young

bale,edwards,duffy,nyatnaaaananaga etc.

[Taffy]

Yeah, we've a very young defence at the moment.

Morgan used to play for Wrexham I think, before moving on to MK Dons. He looked a very mature 21 year old. A solid defender, not the most cultured of players but a typical British styled centre back in my opinion.

He did well fair play to him, and adds to our options at the back.

Talking about centre backs, whatever happened to Partridge? He played a few games last year I think, or maybe the year before, but hasn't been seen at internationals for a while now.

Morgan's first club was Wrexham, he moved to the MK Dons at the start of last season I think.

Partridge - in JAIL!!!

Partridge's in jail? He wasn't that bad a defender, was he?!
