WALES boss Craig Bellamy insists his side “are not here as tourists” ahead of tonight's clash with England at a sold-out Wembley Stadium.

Bellamy’s squad will be aiming to cause an upset against their neighbours before focusing on Monday's crucial World Cup qualifier against Belgium in Cardiff

Wales’ record against England does not make great reading, with just three wins in 35 meetings since 1955.

Their last win at Wembley came courtesy of a Leighton James penalty in 1977.

But, despite that, Bellamy believes his current squad are capable of giving a good account of themselves.

“We are here to come and play our brand of football in difficult circumstances in an incredible place like Wembley,” said Bellamy.

“It is exciting. We are not here as tourists to enjoy the occasion. We are here to be the best version of ourselves.”

And he also wants Wales to express themselves and try to impose their game on a star-studded England side.
