:01:09. > :01:16.European Championship. # That's it, turn the page, walk

:01:30. > :01:40.see. Bale! In Bordeaux! Here's Wayne Rooney. What a chance! A chance, and
:01:41. > :01:48.the equalising goal. Eric Dier smashes it! England find a way.
:01:49. > :02:03.# The sky turns blue it all becomes clear. Ramsay! Russia level it at
:02:04. > :02:11.the last, Vasili Berezutski! Hal Robson-Kanu!
:02:12. > :02:16.# And then the crowds roar. 58 years they've waited. It's a draw that
:02:17. > :02:22.will feel like a defeat for England. And next up is the big one, against

:02:46. > :02:50.Today's result will go a long way towards deciding the fate
:02:51. > :02:55.Demand for tickets has been high, even in the studio.
:02:56. > :02:58.We've had to increase capacity to accommodate Alan Shearer,
:02:59. > :03:00.Rio Ferdinand, Dean Saunders and John Hartson -
:03:01. > :03:17.We will bring you the teams shortly. Sadly the build-up to the game has
:03:18. > :03:20.once again been overshadowed by clashes between fans and police last
:03:21. > :03:26.night. Yes, unfortunately there were some chaotic scenes on the streets
:03:27. > :03:31.of Lille. 37 arrests, 16 or so injuries. None deemed serious. Tear
:03:32. > :03:36.gas was once again deployed by local police. There were skirmishes
:03:37. > :03:41.between England and Russia fans but largely this was about the police
:03:42. > :03:45.trying to pre-empt trouble, prevent large groups of England supporters
:03:46. > :03:49.that had congregated in the city centre from any kind of misbehaviour
:03:50. > :03:54.later in the evening. I think the authorities are largely pleased with
:03:55. > :03:58.how things went. Uefa saying they regret the skirmishes, but this was
:03:59. > :04:03.nothing like as serious as what we saw in Marseille where at times
:04:04. > :04:06.there was vicious violence between England and Russia supporters, which
:04:07. > :04:09.led to threat of expulsion for both teams. I think England are fine and
:04:10. > :04:12.I don't think what happened last night will mean that thread becomes
:04:13. > :04:17.any more grave. But they are certainly skating on thin ice, and
:04:18. > :04:21.the FA do not want to see any kind of trouble here later or on the
:04:22. > :04:26.streets of Lens and Lille this evening. You speak to some England
:04:27. > :04:29.fans and they are critical of the policing, they think the use of tear
:04:30. > :04:34.gas was excessive, but largely they think it was not too serious. The
:04:35. > :04:38.atmosphere outside the stadium is currently friendly. Let's hope
:04:39. > :04:43.that's the way it stays. Thank you. We can only hope today passes off
:04:44. > :04:44.without further incident. Both teams have arrived in Lens. Let's bring
:04:45. > :04:51.new line-ups. Wayne Hennessey returns in goal
:04:52. > :04:57.after missing the Slovakia game with a back spasm. The back three of
:04:58. > :05:01.Chester, Williams and Davies stays the same. Joe Ledley starts 39 days
:05:02. > :05:09.after fracturing his leg, in the Dave Edwards. Bale and Ramsay will
:05:10. > :05:14.have a licence to roam and look to hit England on the counterattack.
:05:15. > :05:18.Hal Robson-Kanu scored the winner off the bench against a vacuum, he
:05:19. > :05:24.replaces Johnny Williams. England as expected are unchanged from the team
:05:25. > :05:29.that drew 1-1 with Russia. Joe Hart in goal. Totten's Danny Rose and
:05:30. > :05:34.Kyle Walker play alongside Kerry K Hill and Chris Smalling. Wayne
:05:35. > :05:41.Rooney and Dele Alli continuity in midfield alongside Eric Dier. Raheem
:05:42. > :05:46.Sterling and Adam Lallana will get up in support of Harry Kane. England
:05:47. > :05:49.unchanged, not surprisingly. No, I would have done exactly the same
:05:50. > :05:53.thing. He's been loyal to that team and I think it was the right
:05:54. > :05:57.decision. He could have left one or two out, one or two changes. He
:05:58. > :06:02.needs performances today, needs players to go out and deliver, be
:06:03. > :06:07.brave, have the confidence to get on the ball and pressurised situations
:06:08. > :06:11.and not be afraid to make mistakes. Go and make a name for themselves,
:06:12. > :06:16.what an occasion. Three changes from Wales from the side that won. The
:06:17. > :06:19.changes in the first game were quite important in terms of how it
:06:20. > :06:25.finished? Yes, harsh on the three left out, but the young goalkeeper
:06:26. > :06:29.was obviously inexperienced so Wayne Hennessey comes in. Joe Ledley comes
:06:30. > :06:34.into the centre of midfield instead of Edwards, I think Chris was
:06:35. > :06:38.desperate to get him in. And Hal Robson-Kanu instead of Williams, who
:06:39. > :06:42.had a good game and is unlucky not to play. Happy to see an out and out
:06:43. > :06:47.centre forward? I think so, important for that focal point for
:06:48. > :06:53.us, for an out ball. I think Gareth Bale will play closer to Hal
:06:54. > :06:56.Robson-Kanu than Ramsay. Looking to have another one in the middle of
:06:57. > :07:02.the park, and he will be the one looking to get the ball and attack.
:07:03. > :07:06.Would you have liked to have seen many changes? More than anything you
:07:07. > :07:10.want to see a performance. The performance in the last game was
:07:11. > :07:15.decent, it was OK, there were some positives. It was just finishing the
:07:16. > :07:19.game off. We will have a lot of possession but it is about finishing
:07:20. > :07:23.it off with a shot or a cross and making the keeper work. What we have
:07:24. > :07:28.to become sad about as England supporters, as three, is the
:07:29. > :07:33.counterattack. When England have got the ball, they've got to be wary of
:07:34. > :07:37.what is going the other way. Dier and the two centre halves need to be
:07:38. > :07:39.strong and communicate together, stop the spaces in wide areas and
:07:40. > :07:42.behind for them to run into. England comfortably
:07:43. > :07:43.lead the head-to-head They've played just
:07:44. > :07:46.four times this century Wales manager Chris Coleman
:07:47. > :07:49.once played under Roy Hodgson sold him within six months
:07:50. > :07:54.of arriving at Blackburn, but the England boss had only warm
:07:55. > :08:05.words for his Welsh When I came to Blackburn Rovers,
:08:06. > :08:09.Chris was one of the many centre halves at the club. I regard Chris
:08:10. > :08:16.as a friend. I regard him as someone that I know well, but we are not
:08:17. > :08:25.bosom buddies of course. Not in contact by text message this week? I
:08:26. > :08:33.don't text anybody I am not a great text I'm afraid. He's a very good
:08:34. > :08:36.coach. People will think if you've got a suitcase full of riches, it's
:08:37. > :08:43.not always easy to throw them together, you know.
:08:44. > :08:51.# God save our Queen. We've got to try to remove the motion from it.
:08:52. > :08:55.Obviously it will be a highly emotive atmosphere. It is an emotive
:08:56. > :08:59.situation to be in but we need to be ice-cold in our thinking and go into
:09:00. > :09:04.it with our own game plan. They got off to a good start, three points.
:09:05. > :09:09.The wind is in their sales. It is up to us to try to make certain we get
:09:10. > :09:12.our three points. We will always be underdogs I suppose. It's going to
:09:13. > :09:19.be a typical British derby I imagine. They can assume the role of
:09:20. > :09:23.underdog if they want to, they can say we are a small nation and
:09:24. > :09:27.England is a big nation. We have to accept that is part and parcel of
:09:28. > :09:31.the game. We are happy to allow them to do that. One player saying
:09:32. > :09:35.something from our camp, another player saying something from their
:09:36. > :09:39.camp. You do you're talking when the whistle blows because talk is cheap.
:09:40. > :09:43.Gareth Bale wanted to clear up that he did not say that England players
:09:44. > :09:52.didn't have passion, but he thinks the Wales players have more passion,
:09:53. > :09:56.is he right? Who knows? I think that's... My dog's bigger than your
:09:57. > :10:00.dog, that type of thing. I'm not quite prepared to go back to my
:10:01. > :10:05.primary school days, about who's got the most passions. It will be my
:10:06. > :10:09.biggest game as manager. The consequences are incredible. Roy
:10:10. > :10:15.does not want to go back to his primary school days but we probably
:10:16. > :10:18.do. This matters, doesn't it? Absolutely. Both managers have tried
:10:19. > :10:22.to play it down but we don't have to, we've been playing it up since
:10:23. > :10:26.the fixtures were made. Gareth Bale has said a few things. There is an
:10:27. > :10:30.air of confidence in this Welsh group. I think Chris Coleman has
:10:31. > :10:35.instilled that. Results as well have created that. I don't know a group
:10:36. > :10:40.of players that have got great spirit and confidence if they are
:10:41. > :10:44.not winning games. Wales have had a great qualifying campaign, won their
:10:45. > :10:47.first game, and rightly so they are super confident going into today's.
:10:48. > :10:53.This is a big deal, but perhaps even more so for Wales? It is a bigger
:10:54. > :10:57.game for us, yeah. When we play in and at any sport it is the biggest
:10:58. > :11:02.game. Schools today have closed I think, letting kids watch on TV. It
:11:03. > :11:07.is a massive game for us. England get used to this situation, whoever
:11:08. > :11:11.they play. I suppose there are similarities with you back in 96,
:11:12. > :11:16.drew the opening game and then faced another British side, Scotland.
:11:17. > :11:23.That's right, we have all reminisced about Euro 96, now this team have to
:11:24. > :11:27.emulate it. England have to put a performance in and deliver a result,
:11:28. > :11:32.otherwise we face an embarrassing exit like it was two years ago. So
:11:33. > :11:36.yes, pressure is on England to perform. All the pressure is on
:11:37. > :11:41.England. Wales got three points, England didn't. England cannot get
:11:42. > :11:44.beaten today. Is it a different mentality approaching a game against
:11:45. > :11:49.players you probably know and play against week in, week out? More than
:11:50. > :11:53.anything it is when you are against team-mates. Then there is that
:11:54. > :12:00.Pantera, that fear of going back to your club, you lost a game against
:12:01. > :12:04.your rivals -- varies that banter. I had it in the Champions League a
:12:05. > :12:09.couple of times. In the England squad, you think, oh my god, I've
:12:10. > :12:13.got to speak about the result. They will have to go back to their clubs
:12:14. > :12:17.and say, we lost to Wales, or beat Wales, and the same for the Welsh
:12:18. > :12:21.boys. It adds to the pressure, but listen, they don't need motivating.
:12:22. > :12:25.You've got three lions on your chest going out into a tournament. For
:12:26. > :12:30.many players it's a question of keeping them calm rather than hyping
:12:31. > :12:34.them up? Absolutely, talk is cheap as they say, actions speak louder
:12:35. > :12:42.than words. There's been a lot said but ultimately when kick-off time
:12:43. > :12:44.comes, it's whoever can control their nerves. Maybe a special player
:12:45. > :12:48.could come through and make a crucial pass to make the difference
:12:49. > :12:52.today. We shall see. The stadium in Lens has just the capacity of
:12:53. > :12:57.38,000, they could have filled it twice over. It has hosted games at
:12:58. > :13:01.the 1984 championship and the World Cup in 1998.
:13:02. > :13:03.Let's cross there now to hear from a former Wales international.
:13:04. > :13:13.Thank you. How we would have loved to have had this man in a major
:13:14. > :13:16.finals, Ian Rush. Are you feeling nervous or excited? More nervous now
:13:17. > :13:22.than when I was playing. It's an amazing atmosphere. Every player
:13:23. > :13:26.will want to get on and play on this pitch, incredible occasion. Can you
:13:27. > :13:30.believe the job Chris Coleman and these players have done getting
:13:31. > :13:34.here? Absolutely fantastic job. When I was playing we had some great
:13:35. > :13:38.individuals. What Chris has done, the difference is the team spirit.
:13:39. > :13:41.If you are going to be successful as Wales are, you need team spirit and
:13:42. > :13:45.Mac comes from the manager and coaches. Chris has done that, the
:13:46. > :13:49.players have got behind him. Now it is time to deliver. And look at the
:13:50. > :13:53.way the players have been speaking this week, tariff bail Wales are
:13:54. > :13:59.much more passionate when it comes to football -- Gareth Bale saying
:14:00. > :14:03.Wales. That's what it's all about and I think it's great. What we are
:14:04. > :14:07.looking at now is to see what England can do. Roy Hodgson has said
:14:08. > :14:10.talk is talk, action is action. Let's see the action on the pitch
:14:11. > :14:14.with England, and that's what Wales have got to come up about. Is it
:14:15. > :14:20.true you are picking man of the match? Yes. Will he be in a red
:14:21. > :14:23.shirt? Hopefully. I was at the Cardiff Arms Park when I saw this
:14:24. > :14:29.man score against West Germany, imagine the scenes if they score
:14:30. > :14:33.here in Lens. STUDIO: I watched him score a few as well from the other
:14:34. > :14:36.end of the pitch. Aaron Ramsey, much expected from him.
:14:37. > :14:37.Much expected then from Aaron Ramsey.
:14:38. > :14:38.He was made Wales's youngest ever captain at the age of 20
:14:39. > :14:39.by Gary Speed, before Ashley Williams took charge under
:14:40. > :14:42.The Arsenal man admitted he was fighting back tears
:14:43. > :14:43.during the national anthem before the Slovakia game.
:14:44. > :14:45.With that hairstyle, there was only one man
:14:46. > :14:57.You have played in two England-Wales games. Is there a different vibe in
:14:58. > :15:01.the dressing room when you put your shin pads on, the team talk, is it
:15:02. > :15:05.different? Of course it is. It is a massive game. It is the old rivalry
:15:06. > :15:09.between us and England and, you know, it is not just in football,
:15:10. > :15:14.it's in rugby, everybody is behind the country. There is a real buzz
:15:15. > :15:18.around the place, where you want to get one over them. You can't say it
:15:19. > :15:23.is the same. It is different. When the draw was made, I was, like, I
:15:24. > :15:29.hope we get them. I really wanted them. Now, there is no Bert stage --
:15:30. > :15:32.better stage to go out there and show the progression that we have
:15:33. > :15:36.made. We have an identity. We work our socks off. We have players as
:15:37. > :15:39.well who are more than capable of putting the ball in the back of the
:15:40. > :15:44.net. The pressure is on England? Of course. We got off to a winning
:15:45. > :15:57.start. The first British team to do that in a Mayor Championships. --
:15:58. > :16:02.Major cham hips. It felt like a home game? Some of the boys were close to
:16:03. > :16:07.tears on the pitch. They have been a part of me as much as anybody. What
:16:08. > :16:14.would it mean for a Welshman to get through with a win over England?
:16:15. > :16:18.That's what we want to achieve. It is a massive game and I'm as
:16:19. > :16:22.passionate as anybody and want to get one over them as well, so to go
:16:23. > :16:26.through with a win against them would be something so special and
:16:27. > :16:30.something that will be with us for the rest of our lives. I can see it
:16:31. > :16:34.in your eyes. We are looking forward to this. All the pressure is on
:16:35. > :16:41.them. We want to show what we are capable of doing on the big stage
:16:42. > :16:46.against the old enemy. Aaron Ramsey is part of an attacking unit that is
:16:47. > :16:58.very threatening for Wales, Dean? They play like a 5-2-2-1. Ramsey and
:16:59. > :17:03.Bale will play off him. They know what they are doing defensively.
:17:04. > :17:07.They will let the ball go to Walker and Rose, they will wait for a
:17:08. > :17:11.trigger to press. They are all good athletes. They have left the ball go
:17:12. > :17:17.up to the left-back. When they win it back off you, they all fly
:17:18. > :17:21.forward t two wing-backs join in, Ramsey. If the ball goes to Gareth
:17:22. > :17:27.Bale, you have to sprint to keep up with him, he is that quick! So, Neil
:17:28. > :17:29.Taylor will join in the other side. So the front three move around
:17:30. > :17:32.wherever they want. They don't play in their position. That is why it
:17:33. > :17:38.will be difficult to mark Gareth Bale. The Slovaks tried it. You can
:17:39. > :17:43.see the players in their positions, but Gareth Bale eventually gets
:17:44. > :17:49.man-marked. Robson-Kanu is up at the top, Ramsey on the right, Bale on
:17:50. > :17:54.the left. Dele Alli and Ledley are in the middle of midfield -- Joe
:17:55. > :17:58.Allen and Ledley are in the middle of midfield. Bale is getting
:17:59. > :18:02.man-marked. H e creates the move, the gap, Ramsey gets in behind the
:18:03. > :18:06.midfield. So that is the danger. If you try and mark Gareth Bale, Aaron
:18:07. > :18:11.Ramsey gets in there, you are in trouble. Robson-Kanu's magnificent
:18:12. > :18:15.strike(!) It goes in the bottom corner. That was caused by Gareth
:18:16. > :18:20.Bale being unselfish and sacrificing himself. So England, I don't know
:18:21. > :18:23.how they will mark him. Well that remains to be seen. In terms of
:18:24. > :18:27.keeping possession, it is important for Wales that they have players
:18:28. > :18:32.that can do that, Joe Allen can? He can. He keeps possession. He also
:18:33. > :18:36.uses the possession better now. At Liverpool, he got a bit obsessed
:18:37. > :18:40.with keeping the ball sideways and backwards. You see him there nick
:18:41. > :18:45.it, his first thought is can I get it forward? This time, we see a
:18:46. > :18:49.different type to Joe Allen, spraying the ball wide to Chris
:18:50. > :18:54.Gunter, very good pass. This time it's a better pass. That is more
:18:55. > :18:57.drilled. He is able to play in the opposition's half a lot more simply
:18:58. > :19:04.because he has the protection at the back with the three and also Joe
:19:05. > :19:08.Ledley who sits. This time we see him, again first pass forward. Then
:19:09. > :19:11.he also follows it and he carries the ball, he makes yards, that is
:19:12. > :19:16.what he does. There is nothing on but what does he do? He keeps it. He
:19:17. > :19:21.keeps possession. Nothing fancy. How often do you see Joe Allen in this
:19:22. > :19:25.position, right up top of the field, a great cross for Gareth Bale, the
:19:26. > :19:29.keeper does well. So, for me, Joe Allen, when he plays for Wales, he
:19:30. > :19:30.plays differently to his role at Liverpool, he gets forward a lot
:19:31. > :19:33.more. The players are warming up
:19:34. > :19:40.and watching on from the sidelines is former England midfielder
:19:41. > :19:51.Danny Murphy, who played Chatted to Roy Hodgson and he was
:19:52. > :19:54.very pleased to know you were here, Danny. We expect the players to come
:19:55. > :19:59.out any minute now and start warming up. The keepers are out. The
:20:00. > :20:02.atmosphere is building. It's got a feel of an English Premier League
:20:03. > :20:06.ground, this ground. I said that yesterday. The atmosphere as well,
:20:07. > :20:11.it feels like a club game? It did when the rain was coming down! It is
:20:12. > :20:15.fantastic. The sun has come out. The pitch is beautiful. I have just
:20:16. > :20:19.walked on it. Looking forward to it. The England players are out behind
:20:20. > :20:23.you. This starting 11, he's stuck with the 11 that played against
:20:24. > :20:26.Russia. Are you happy that that is the right 11 and the right
:20:27. > :20:30.formation? The formation is right. It's balanced. I would have liked to
:20:31. > :20:33.have seen Jack Wilshere in, maybe push Dele Alli further forward. What
:20:34. > :20:38.is crucial is how the front three go. If the front three go nice and
:20:39. > :20:42.high, it causes Wales a problem. Do the wing-backs drop in and make a
:20:43. > :20:48.five? If they do do that, we get the ball in midfield. We can't be
:20:49. > :20:52.conservative? We need a win. We are sick of being conservative. Let's
:20:53. > :20:55.try and win the game, push the front three nice and high up the pitch and
:20:56. > :20:59.give the Welsh a problem. What about the noises that have been coming out
:21:00. > :21:02.of the Wales camp? Some say there is a bit of tongue-in-cheek, but they
:21:03. > :21:08.have been relishing the underdog role and playing that role has
:21:09. > :21:12.united them, we are more passionate than you, do you buy into England's
:21:13. > :21:16.silence on that and not playing that game? Is it a concerted effort? No,
:21:17. > :21:21.it was the right thing to do. It wouldn't affect me. If you react,
:21:22. > :21:24.you are showing them that you have bothered them, that you have been
:21:25. > :21:29.bothered. I think we did the right thing as a group. Do your talking on
:21:30. > :21:33.the pitch. Let them do their silly comments and after the game, then
:21:34. > :21:36.you can say what you want. The noise is for Wales, just coming out on to
:21:37. > :21:43.the pitch as well. It is a super atmosphere here, Gary. I'm sure it
:21:44. > :21:52.is. There is Wayne Rooney. Playing in midfield.
:21:53. > :21:55.What a whirlwind few months it's been for the Tottenham midfielder.
:21:56. > :21:56.Just over a year ago, he was still playing for MK Dons,
:21:57. > :22:07.where they remember him with genuine affection.
:22:08. > :22:14.He is from Milton Keynes, Central Park, and he had a difficult
:22:15. > :22:19.upbringing and he spoke about how he would be out playing football with
:22:20. > :22:23.older boys. The timing of us being here as a professional football club
:22:24. > :22:27.and having our academy here, it was fortunate for him. You seen
:22:28. > :22:31.something that was quite unique, and there is a freedom to him and a
:22:32. > :22:37.fearless to him that was unrivalled for a kid of his age. He loves
:22:38. > :22:41.having a football. His formative years, I can imagine he spent many
:22:42. > :22:44.hours with a ball on the street. You watch him out of the window when he
:22:45. > :22:55.is with the first team, he will be doing keepy ups with another player.
:22:56. > :22:59.He was by far the best player. He never wilted at any given stage. He
:23:00. > :23:04.stayed the same person. He did the same things. He had freedom on the
:23:05. > :23:12.pitch and that made him a special talent. Dele has always had this
:23:13. > :23:17.edge. If someone was physical to him, he might react in the wrong
:23:18. > :23:23.way. Some of my coaches put sin-bins in and we had to pull him out and
:23:24. > :23:26.give him ten minutes, so we tried to guide him but it is important that
:23:27. > :23:31.he carries that competitive edge. He came on as a sub in the FA Cup, the
:23:32. > :23:36.first touch was a backheel. His first start here here in the replay
:23:37. > :23:40.and he scored a replica goal to the one he scored for England. When
:23:41. > :23:46.people do that, you know you have got something unique. We were lucky
:23:47. > :23:51.that Dele Alli was brought up in Milton Keynes. We gave him the
:23:52. > :23:56.freedom to do what he needed to do. It will be fascinating for me to see
:23:57. > :24:01.him on this stage. Who knows what will happen then? He was a lover of
:24:02. > :24:05.Barcelona. I wouldn't be surprised if he could get there. Nothing
:24:06. > :24:14.against Tottenham. The world stage is for him. I don't know about you,
:24:15. > :24:17.I tweeted back in September/October that I thought Dele Alli would
:24:18. > :24:24.emerge and sneak into this England squad. He's going to be a genuine
:24:25. > :24:28.superstar, all things being equal? I think he's, even in the first game
:24:29. > :24:33.in this tournament, he showed a maturity well beyond his years. His
:24:34. > :24:37.temperament is one of his biggest assets, every time he steps up a
:24:38. > :24:41.level, he gets in the pockets, plays the right pass, makes the right
:24:42. > :24:44.decisions. In the final third, these guys will tell you, the hardest
:24:45. > :24:48.thing about it is making right decisions in this area. Do you
:24:49. > :24:52.shoot? Do you pass? He comes World Cup the right decision. He is not
:24:53. > :24:58.someone who is going to dictate the pace of the game. He is going to
:24:59. > :25:02.create moments, whether it be an assist, a pass like that, a shot at
:25:03. > :25:08.goal, or a goal. This guy is destined for bigger and better
:25:09. > :25:15.things. No disrespect to Spurs, I think he is going to play for huge
:25:16. > :25:21.clubs. He's got grace, he runs like a gazelle. He's got every attribute
:25:22. > :25:24.you would want and his finishing, Ronaldo had a chance like that the
:25:25. > :25:29.other day and missed it. This is sublime. I wish I had scored
:25:30. > :25:33.something like that. I have done it in training(!) The one thing I would
:25:34. > :25:36.say, you mentioned his temperament. You can bet anything you want, the
:25:37. > :25:40.Wales guys will be in his ear today. If there has been one weakness, he
:25:41. > :25:44.has reacted once or twice this season. Wayne Rooney playing in
:25:45. > :25:49.midfield. Comfortably in the first game, Rio? Completely. He showed
:25:50. > :25:54.everyone here that he can play in this role, in the quarterback role,
:25:55. > :26:01.he has every club in the bag. He can go long, short, a bit of fade, curl,
:26:02. > :26:07.he's got it all. He is evolving as a player, a bit like Ryan Giggs, and
:26:08. > :26:11.they can do it seamlessly. The difference today, will he get this
:26:12. > :26:15.time? Chris Coleman would have seen the amount of time he had to pick
:26:16. > :26:18.passes. I'm sure there will be a body around him or two that makes
:26:19. > :26:24.sure he doesn't get time and space to pick out passes. That pass was
:26:25. > :26:28.exquisite. I thought he was England's best player. He got the
:26:29. > :26:33.balance... Bad decision to bring him off? I thought so. He got the
:26:34. > :26:38.balance really right and correct the other night as in when to go
:26:39. > :26:43.forward, when to sit and defend, when to spray a long pass, and that
:26:44. > :26:46.is a fantastic save. Any other night, that's in. I was surprised
:26:47. > :26:52.that he was taken off, particularly with his experience. Who do Wales
:26:53. > :26:57.fear most in the English set-up? I think it is going to be switches of
:26:58. > :27:01.play and Walker and Rose overlapping, that is the weakness in
:27:02. > :27:07.Wales, if Wales turn into a back five, and Sterling and Lallana push
:27:08. > :27:21.up, Taylor and Gunter will have to go right back. Allen and Alli have
:27:22. > :27:27.got to take care of -- Alli and Ledley have got to take care of
:27:28. > :27:33.Lallana and Rooney. If Taylor goes forward, then Davies comes across
:27:34. > :27:36.that left side, and you get an extra midfielder in there, like one of
:27:37. > :27:43.your wing-backs would make up that extra man. Just over half an hour to
:27:44. > :27:47.kick-off. We will switch channels, so don't move. Stay exactly where
:27:48. > :27:51.you are. We have got plenty more build-up to come in the next
:27:52. > :27:54.half-hour or so. Time now to switch over to BBC One. I trust I will see
:27:55. > :28:03.you shortly. There are days like this when many
:28:04. > :28:08.players never have it, never experience it, I can tell you these
:28:09. > :28:14.are the days that you never believe will come again. When you come to a
:28:15. > :28:20.day like this, you know why you do it. You know why you have been
:28:21. > :28:26.involved. Because you will meet each other in the street in 30 years'
:28:27. > :28:32.time and there will just be a look and you will know how special some
:28:33. > :28:38.days in your life are and on that field, sometimes today, all it will
:28:39. > :28:43.be between you is a look, no words, just a look. That will say
:28:44. > :28:54.everything. And the biggest thing it will say to you is you are special.
:28:55. > :29:02.You are very, very special. Go out, enjoy it. Remember how you got here
:29:03. > :29:27.and why. Finish it off. And be special for the rest of your lives.
:29:28. > :29:28.Hello, there. You left us a voicemail
:29:29. > :29:32.stating you were interested in our mediation services.
