Newcastle United and Wales striker Craig Bellamy has explained how the entire Wales squad is desperate to reach next year's Euro 2004 finals for Ryan Giggs' sake, who they believe deserves to be playing alongside the best in the world. Bellamy explained: "We have got some great players in this team who deserve to be playing alongside the best players in the world in the biggest tournaments.

"People like Ryan Giggs have pretty much done it all at club level, and he should have the chance to show what he can do in big international events.

"During his career we have never made it. Wales have not qualified for a long time now. If we could do it, it would be fantastic for everybody, but especially so for guys like Giggs, John Hartson and Gary Speed.

"There is a great spirit in the Welsh side and we believe we can get there. If we didn't believe that, we might as well give up now."
