NEWPORT teen-ace Chris Gunter insists Wales can pull off the mother of all upsets in Germany tomorrow.

The Tottenham full-back made just his third appearance for the Dragons in last November’s Euro 2008 qualifier against the mighty Germans, where John Toshack’s young side came away with a creditable 0-0 draw.

However, with six points secured from their opening three games in their World Cup qualification campaign, Gunter is certain Wales can go one better this time around.

"The most important thing was to get three points before we went to Germany, which we did on Saturday, it takes the pressure off somewhat," he explained.

"It’s the same kind of challenge as in Russia, we were very unlucky over there last month not to get anything and we feel we can put that right this time.

"We have watched a video of the German game against Finland and we’ll be clued up, we know what their strengths are if we didn’t already.

"There is no point going over there and fearing them, I think we are all confident of picking up points.

"These are the big games, away from home you want to be involved in, it should be an exciting game, a full house and hopefully a great atmosphere.

"No team is beyond being beaten, if we approach the game as we did in Russia there is no reason why we can’t get a win.

"It’s a confidence booster having six points out of nine and it gives the boys belief.

"We can’t play for a draw, we believe we can win the game. They conceded three against Finland (in the recent 3-3 group stage draw) and we all firmly believe we can go and get a result in Germany, even though it is a big ask."

A more senior player, Fulham’s Simon Davies, endorsed Gunter’s view.

"Germany are always a really solid outfit, they don’t look to cut you open time and time again, they are just really efficient in what they want to do," he told the Argus.

"We need to be solid and keep a tight formation and they will hopefully struggle to break us down.

"We seem to do well against the big teams, with a solid base trying to catch them on the break.

"That is especially the case with Craig back in the side.

"He gives us more of a cutting edge with his pace, we are all really confident and looking forward to the game.

"It’s a role reversal from Saturday, the pressure is all on them and the chance is there at the end of it.

"We’ve got a great opportunity to really push on in the group and belief is high."

Both Gunter and Davies added to the condemnation of the Millennium Stadium pitch, widely criticised following Saturday’s 2-0 win over Liechtenstein.

"We have all been talking about the pitch in the camp, it was awful," Gunter said.

"The pitch has got worse since the Azerbaijan game last month, we trained on Thursday and at first look it seemed OK, but then we stepped on it and after five minutes it started cutting up."

Davies agreed, explaining: "It’s so uneasy under foot you are always second-guessing yourself.

"It is the kind of surface that can cause injuries, because all your weight can go from you straight away.

"Craig Bellamy nearly got injured in the warm-up taking a shot, that was why he was so annoyed about it. We don’t play there again until March and hopefully it will be better by then."

Both Gunter and Davies are ready to step up if required should Wales win a penalty tomorrow.

The Dragons have amazingly missed in three successive competitive games, Bellamy joining Jason Koumas and Gareth Bale on the miss list.

"I have taken them for the age grade sides under Brian Flynn and would take it on, but I don’t think I will be asked," Gunter said.

"I have never really taken them before but if I was the man in line I would have no qualms about it," Davies said.
