‘I was happy with him at the weekend, more than happy with him’
Wales boss Chris Coleman is considering deploy Gareth Bale as a striker against England on Thursday after he played a similar role in their European Championship opener against Slovakia.
Bale, who usually plays on the wing for club Real Madrid and country, scored the opening goal as Wales kicked off their campaign in Group B with a 2-1 win over Slovakia in Bordeaux on Saturday.
"There's an option there or put him back in the normal role he plays for us," Coleman told reporters in France.
"But I think that we have got between today and Thursday to work on one or two pieces.
"I was happy with him at the weekend, more than happy with him. He scored a great free-kick and had a couple of good chances playing in the number nine role.
"At the weekend he got his chances and he was effective. So there will be a chat with him and we will look to see if we will keep him there or move him."
