Golden oldie Gareth Bale has vowed to help polish the new gems as Wales aim to sparkle again in the European Championships. Almost three years after being the jewel in the crown for Chris Coleman’s team at Euro 2016, Bale is still the most precious piece in the new line-up under Ryan Giggs.

Junior Hoilett has backed Neil Warnock to keep Cardiff City in the Premier League – and dismissed claims some teammates had lost faith in their manager. Hoilett scored the first and created the second goal as the Bluebirds beat West Ham 2-0 at the weekend to remain in touch with the clubs just above them.
