Guest contributor Richard Smith takes a look at the recently concluded Under 21 tournament, where at least we drew with the eventual winners...even if we didn't qualify for the semi finals because we forgot a game lasts at least 90 minutes.

If manager Stuart Pearce achieved one thing at the Euro Under-21 Championships in Denmark, it was to mentally prepare the players for future disappointments for when they represent their country at senior level.

I've got to be honest, I'm completely underwhelmed by today's game. If England don't win by more than two goals I think Capello should resign immediately. This game looks like a mythical third round FA Cup tie something like Histon v Liverpool.

To begin, let's start with some facts. We've only lost three times in Wales since World War II, the last time was a 0-1 defeat at The Racecourse Ground in Wrexham in May 1982, a game in the last Home International Tournament.
