Ryan MarchHOST
Uh, Tom King, uh, one of the, one of the great men, and I think like as a third goalkeeper in the squad is probably fantastic because he brings, he probably, he brings the vibes, the ba-ba-ba-ba banter.
Ryan MarchHOST
Um, [laughs] uh, but and then obviously like David Cornell gets a call-up, who's in his mid-30s as well, and I don't think has ever had a cap.
Ryan MarchHOST
At that point I was just like, when Cornell got called up, I was like, "Why aren't we calling up someone like Kit Margeson at that point?"
Greg CaineHOST
Yeah.
Mark HarrisonHOST
And then we've got Manchester United's backup goalie, Wrexham's backup goalie, Everton's third choice goalie.
Mark HarrisonHOST
And David Cornell was called, I wasn't here.
Mark HarrisonHOST
Yeah, of
Alex O'BrienGUEST
course.
Carl RobertsHOST
Obviously, Carl Dahl was missing.
Carl RobertsHOST
And y- you know, I'm not knocking David Cornell who came in, and it's a great story in itself, isn't it? A 35-year-old who's been in the wilderness.
Carl RobertsHOST
I think his last call-up was, like, 2010, wasn't it? And coming up to the squad and could...
Carl RobertsHOST
He didn't have a club last week, did he, or before he joined Leicester, so he could have got his first cap.
Nia JonesGUEST
Mm.
Iwan RobertsGUEST
But I think the...
Iwan RobertsGUEST
Instead of calling David Cornell, surely you'd look at the under 21 squad-
Nia JonesGUEST
Mm
WelshtechieHOST
I
DazHOST
think the telltale sign is that when those withdrawals happened, the late call-ups were David Cornell for Leicester City, Joe Taylor for Huddersfield Town and Charlie Savage for Reading.
WelshtechieHOST
All League One sides.
WelshtechieHOST
Yeah.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Recent draws against Northern Ireland and Ghana and a 2-1 defeat to Romania will hardly inspire confidence amongst the Welsh fraternity that a shock will be on the cards at the José Alvalade Stadium, and it's therefore no real surprise at just how much of a favourite Portugal are for this one.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Bellamy will look to Welsh stalwarts Davies, Daniel James, David Brooks and Brennan Johnson to make life difficult for their opponents, whilst David Cornell, Joe Taylor and Charlie Savage have also been called up.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
A real David vs. Goliath matchup.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Where Portugal will look to keep control of the ball in midfield, thanks to the excellence of Fernandes and Vitinha, Wales will look to utilize the pace of James and Johnson to get in behind the fullbacks as Cancelo, for example, attempts to maraud forward.
