You are definitely seeing signs under Walter that we are playing better as a team and with a formation everyone understands. We are getting some momentum going and confidence is high. Norway will be tough, because we put a lot of effort into it against Italy, but I imagine we will just rest up and then be ready to have a bash at them. We are not going to give this up yet.

It's not what you'd want as a player. You want to play in front of 80,000 or 90,000 people. It would have been some experience for the fans as well. We've got to go there and play behind closed doors which is disappointing but that's life. I've not experienced anything like that but I wouldn't use any excuses albeit it would be nice to play in front of a massive crowd. I don't think it's going to happen.
