    Gunyer in a back 3. Interestingly preferred to Lockyer.

    If Gunter puts a shift in here it's going to annoy me, doesn't appear to try a leg in a charlton shirt.

    We should be proud to be represented. Let's hope Wales put in a performance. Mind you, I am half Italian so not too much of a performance form my perspective.

    It’s amazing to think the Welsh goalie has not played a league game for 4 years

    Anyone know what nickname the Welsh have given to Chris Gunter?

    I dont mind John Hartson normally, but the way he's said "Chrissy Gunter" ten times in the last 5 minutes is seriously grating!

    Very harsh. He’s not been our best player by a long shot this season, but I’d never accuse him of being anything but a limited honest pro who gives his all.

    Good to see the Wales manager picking in form players.

    Wales genuinely play more expansive stuff than us.

    Wales giving this a right good go, as we knew they would against a very inexperienced Italy

    I wish we had the desire and fight that they do.

    If we'd played them the other night instead of Scotland, they'd have beaten us.

    Anyone else notice Italy give so many free-kicks away in the middle third of the pitch and they're not just mistimed; most of them are "tactical". This is where surely a count on free kicks should lead to a booking. It's clearly a tactic to make sure the ball doesn't get near their box.

    I know why he didn’t score - because I’ve backed him first goal at 200/1 and anytime at 100/1.

    At least we’re not Turkish. Listening to their fans they genuinely though they could win the thing haha.

    Gunter has had a good career, mainly in the Championship with over 100 caps for his country.
    Don't judge his career on last season in League 1.

    Graeme Souness said the other night it was nonsense that Scottish players had more passion and it was a myth.

    Gunter looks slimmer and fitter than he did last season.
  • Nice goal that.

    Terrible defending from Wales.

    All over the place with crosses into the box.
