Yeah granted they've given us all that, and Ikea, and pickled herrings, but other than that, what have the Scandinavians ever done for us?

funnily enough one of the best places I have visited is Denmark. A wonderful country with very friendly people. a Health care service to be admired and copied, a clean country, nice food.. I like everything about the Danish people.

Sounds like the Schmeichel family is informing your view on the whole of Scandinavia 😂

 

Always thought they were known for the exact opposite of that description.

Monty Python quote.

"It's just a confidence thing," said Ward. "We had a tough transfer window which everyone seemed to be talking about and sometimes that was difficult to deal with in the changing room".

 

Interesting quote.

Wayne Hennessey: Wales number one keeper spot 'up for grabs' - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63676841

 

Hennessey admits that him and DW are battling it out for the place in the starting lineup. It sounds like both will get one run out and the third game will be a toss up, based on how each does.

Pontus Kaamark; his skills brought more joy than any Swedish furniture (although I have not any!)

 

Coming back to original thread: Ward is showing his form from earlier years particularly when he played for Wales. Rodgers did well to stick with him; whilst I thought Rodgers should stay, I did think Iversen should have started when Ward was making mistakes. I would see no reason for buying another goalkeeper as has been speculated given limited funds w have.

I agree with that OtF, in the videos of the Welsh squad training today, their (probable) first choice defence was playing, with Danny Ward in goal, against a forward line of decidedly back up forwards. That smacks to me of them working up defensive strategies for Group games, WITH Ward in.

And hennessey starts..

Where have you been recently, been very quiet.

 

Hennessey starting clearly has nothing to do with form, he's not played. Page is being loyal, is nothing to do with the quality of Ward. Personally I think it's a error, but he's the manager.
