Swans quintet in Flynn's squad

Swans quintet in Flynn's squad

Published Nov. 1, 2011 3:15 p.m. ET

Captain Jazz Richards, who last week signed a new contract at the Liberty Stadium, is joined by club mates Daniel Alfei, Joe Walsh, Lee Lucas and David Cornell, who is on loan at Hereford. Wales are fourth in the standings following a 1-0 home defeat to group leaders the Czech Republic last time out. While Flynn's men have played a game more than the Czechs and Armenia, they are just one point off the top of the group and a win at the Hanrapetakan Stadium would put them back in contention for a place in the finals. Flynn has also included Colchester defender Tom Bender on his standby list following the 18-year-old's recovery from the severe concussion he suffered while playing for Accrington against Tranmere in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy last month. Crystal Palace's Jonathan Williams, 18, is included in the main squad after being called into the senior squad as injury cover for the games against Switzerland and Bulgaria. Wales Under-21 squad to play Armenia on Tuesday, November 15: Cornell (Hereford), Maxwell (Wrexham), Alfei (Swansea), Brown (Rotherham), Freeman (Nottingham Forest), Henley (Blackburn), Richards (Swansea, captain), Stephens (Hibernians), Walsh (Swansea), Bodin (Swindon), Hewitt (Macclesfield), Howells (Luton), Lucas (Swansea), Williams (Crystal Palace), Bradshaw (Shrewsbury), Chamberlain (Leicester), Doble (Southampton), J Taylor (Exeter). Standby list: R Taylor (Chelsea), Bender (Accrington), Evans (Cardiff), Meades (Cardiff), Pritchard (Fulham), A Taylor (Tranmere), Partington (Bournemouth), Cassidy (Wolves), Ogleby (East Fife), Peniket (Fulham).
