They cut Seydou Doumbia ? Are they mad ?
Re: Cote D'Ivoire announces 5 players cut for 23 man list.
I'm surprised about Doumbia's cut. Lacina was injured for most of the second half of the season so that was somewhat expected.

Re: Cote D'Ivoire announces 5 players cut for 23 man list.
Doumbia is a criminal exclusion, especially when there are WASTEPIPES like that useless Sio and Bolly in the squad. Don't know what the coach is thinking.
Re: Cote D'Ivoire announces 5 players cut for 23 man list.
Doumbia has never seen the pitch for CIV for over a year. Bony has and is in similar form. It's understandable.
Bony is the candidate to start over Drogba, it was never Doumbia.

Why? He scores for his club, but Bony and Drogba are much better than him...vancity eagle wrote:They cut Seydou Doumbia ? Are they mad ?

Strikers Seydou Doumbia and Lacina Traore are the major players to be cut from Sabri Lamouchi's side as the Liverpool defender is passed fit for the competition
Kolo Toure will be part of the Ivory Coast squad for the World Cup, despite contracting malaria in the build-up to the finals.
The Liverpool defender was named as part of Sabri Lamouchi's 23-man squad for the tournament on Sunday, even though he did not feature in their 2-1 defeat to Bosnia-Herzegovina the previous day.
Lamouchi's squad has seen five players released from the provisional 28, with strikers Seydou Doumbia, who scored 20 goals for CSKA Moscow last season, and Lacina Traore both being cut.
The pair are joined by defenders Benjamin Angoua and Brice Dja Djedje, plus goalkeeper Badra Ali in missing Ivory Coast's third appearance at a finals.
Informing the five players was a tough task for Lamouchi, who admitted it brought back memories of his exclusion from France's squad for their hosting of the World Cup in 1998.
"I've known a few difficult moments in my two years as national coach," Supersport quote him as saying. "But today has been by far the most difficult day.
"I have to do my job responsibly and make tough decisions. The five players who will not take part in the World Cup have been exemplary throughout."
Ivory Coast complete their tournament preparations against El Salvador on Wednesday before opening their campaign against Japan on June 15.
Squad in full:
Goalkeepers: Boubacar Barry (Lokeren), Sylvain Gbohouo (Sewe Sport), Sayouba Mande (Stabaek)
Defenders: Jean-Daniel Akpa-Akpro (Toulouse), Serge Aurier (Toulouse), Souleyman Bamba (Trabzonspor), Arthur Boka (Stuttgart), Kolo Toure (Liverpool), Didier Zokora (Trabzonspor), Ousman Vieira (Caykur Rizespor)
Midfielders: Mathis Bolly (Fortuna Dusseldorf), Constant Djakpa (Eintracht Frankfurt), Ismael Diomande (Saint-Etienne), Max-Alain Gradel (Saint-Etienne), Cheick Tiote (Newcastle United), Yaya Toure (Manchester City), Geoffroy Serey Die (Basel), Didier Ya Konan (Hannover 96)
Forwards: Wilfried Bony (Swansea), Didier Drogba (Galatasaray), Gervinho (Roma), Salomon Kalou (Lille), Giovanni Sio (Basel)

Re: Ivory Coast trim World Cup squad
I'm surprised that Seydou Doumbia didn't make it.
Re: Ivory Coast trim World Cup squad
In the last couple of years Ivory Coast has transformed from Africa's biggest hope at the big dance to a bunch of tired-legged walk-in customers.
This team is way past its prime and I would not bet a cent on them to even survive the groupe stage.

That K Toure/Zokora partnership at the back is asking for trouble.
Re: Ivory Coast trim World Cup squad
As usual, only the coach knows why he cut the players, perhaps from these cuts, the team might surprise the World

For the first time I will even support the North African participant as I believe that Algeria is a worthy competitor.

A bamba/Zokora combination is even worse.
