Wales men's football head coach Craig Bellamy has spoken of the two upcoming World Cup qualifiers at home to Liechtenstein and away to Belgium,
00:10
which could be pivotal if Wales are wanting to qualify for the 2026 World Cup in America, Canada and Mexico.
00:17
Yeah, look, they're massive games. June's always a tricky period with the amount of players we have from EFL.
00:31
Having a month off, it's not set up for international football.
00:37
We've had one or two problems with that over the past few years.
00:40
Next year probably will change because the amount of numbers we have going into the Premier League, hopefully.
00:49
Because if you look, now they've just finished, then they have a week of rest is perfect than going into a camp.
00:55
Now the boys from the EFL have had three and a half weeks off.
01:00
That's not acceptable to go into international football.
01:04
We understand that. Everyone in this room would understand that.
01:07
So we have to put on a camp. We have to keep the boys training.
01:11
And Wales women's player Rhiannon Roberts has talked up the current squad depth that the Wales women's national team has
01:17
ahead of the European Championships this summer in Switzerland,
01:22
in which Wales will face England in their group and will be hoping to progress out of the group stage
01:27
and into the knockout rounds as deep into the tournament as they can go.
01:33
Like I said earlier, the foundations now are out defensively. We've been fantastic.
01:37
I think we've conceded the least amount of goals in the league that we're in at the minute,
01:42
which is real credit to the whole team.
01:47
And now it's just an area where the next two games we can really focus on and put a little bit more pressure on us
01:53
to go and take our chances, create as many chances as possible against top nations.
01:58
I think that's the thing. Our squad now has got so much strength and depth,
02:02
and that's why it's really hard to judge what the squad's going to be like for the Euros,
02:08
because it's just really difficult.
02:10
The strength and depth in the squad now is unbelievable,
02:13
and that's what you want as a manager.
