Just read that Joe is to give up international football. Bad news for Wales but good news for us. At his age Joe needs to rest his tired body when he can.
This is where Page is going to have to have some common sense and a pairI think Ramsey still wants to play for Wales. He'll have to up his game if he does and by a great deal.
He might have common sense but I'm not sure about the balls else he'd have benched Bale and Ramsey in Qatar to be used as impact subs. What concerns me is that he just doesn't have the top level experience or the nous to be an international manager. You think of Yorath, Hughes, Toshack, Speed, Coleman and Giggs who were all quality players who'd played, been managed and learned at the very top level. What does Page offer? Port Vale and Northampton as a manager? Okay, he played for Wales but he wouldn't have been capped by any of the top 30 international teams. He was a good honest journeyman pro nowhere near true international class.This is where Page is going to have to have some common sense and a pair
