Thank you for downloading the 12 days of Edgefoth, all-time greatest Welsh 11,

where Iwan Roberts, Danny Gabedon and I choose the 11 best players to have played for Wales in history.

And today we're choosing our second central midfielder.

Iwan, who have you gone for?

That's quite simple. if we're picking a

welsh greatest ever team i think you've got to have gary speed in there somewhere i agree whether

it's left back but for me i i thought he was at his best in midfield you know he used to time his runs

into that box score goals with his head great great in the air, lovely left foot,

and what a servant for Welsh football.

I think Speeds has got to be in there.

Yes.

You played with him a few times.

What was he like to play with?

It's just an absolute gentleman.

I remember my first cap,

we played Holland at the race course and we've

walked, come off the bus, got into the home restroom and this young little lad in his

Leeds track suit, Jet Blackhair, and we were thinking, who's this? And it was Gary because

we didn't have enough, he'd been called in, so I knew him from a very early age.

And another one who was great physique, strong as an ox, box to box.

What was he like to play with on the pitch?

Oh, you both played with him, obviously.
