Former England defender Gary Pallister has sparked controversy ahead of the highly-anticipated Wales vs. England clash at Wembley this Thursday. He boldly claimed that not a single Welsh player would make the cut for Thomas Tuchel’s Three Lions squad, given the top-notch talent England boasts—even leaving out players like Jude Bellingham!
While Pallister was dismissive of the Welsh side’s current roster, he did express admiration for Craig Bellamy’s efforts in reigniting team spirit as Wales eye World Cup qualification. But with a pivotal match against Belgium looming, Pallister believes Bellamy’s squad faces a tough road ahead.
England and Wales haven’t squared off on British soil since 2011, but the rivalry remains fierce. Pallister insists fans are “desperate” for victory, and the fiery atmosphere at Wembley will reflect that, especially with bragging rights on the line. Bellamy’s brigade will need to harness their national pride as they aim to break a decades-long losing streak against their neighbours.
As the anticipation builds, fans in red will be out in full force, ready to paint London red and possibly twist the tale in Wales’ favour. While Pallister may stand firm in his views, he still cheers on the Home Nations and secretly roots for Wales to shine on the world stage. Can Bellamy’s men prove him wrong? Only time will tell! 🏴☠️🏟️❤️ #WalesVsEngland #WembleyClash #FootballFever
