The Welsh have been incredibly arrogant in this tournament, and I dont think I can take aother Chris Coleman interview where he suggests Wales have played brilliant, even though in reality they shove 11 men behind the ball and wait for a keeper to throw a rubbish Gareth Bale free kick in his net.

Hope for an early goal for Belgium, then watch then slaughter Wales once they are drawn forward.

The Wales plan is simple. Dive anywhere near the box. Bale free kick and hope the keeper stuffs up. So far it has worked twice, so maybe it is a sound plan.

Scary thought for Wales though, they are the only team England could beat. That has to knock your confidence a bit.

Both centre backs out for Belgium tonight, not sure if that will have any bearing?

The ball will be in the Welsh half for most of the game, so probably not.

Not seen Wales yet. Hope they win, but that might change if they do a lot of diving as suggested above.

Lukaku's holding the ball up well.

Belgium have been the best team to watch thus far. I'd be happy for them to win the whole thing.

Brilliant strike. Here's hoping for a thrashing from here as Wales will have to come out now.
