Dorman makes Wales squad

Last updated : 26 February 2010 By Stuart Gillespie

Dorman is English and has no parentage links to Wales, despite growing up there. However, when the rules were changed last year he became able to play for them as he'd been schooled in Wales for over five years during his childhood. He was a late addition to the squad for last year's friendly against Scotland, but was an unused substitute. However, the fact he has been named in the first squad this time around surely increases his chances.

Dorman's best form of the season came around the time of his last international call up, so let's hope we see an improvement again as he's been pretty poor recently. He'll be up against it if he is to play as he faces competition from Premiership stars such as Simon Davies from Fulham and Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey.

Wales' game against Sweden will be played at the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday night.
