Ivory Coast Afcon squad

[EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA]

Chei…..see squad
Anything less than a 2 goal loss to CIV will be like a victory. Even Zaha couldn’t make the list.

Tournament hasn't started and you're already shaking Minus gk, Ivory coast squad from the beginning of their golden generation have always been stacked on paper. The games will be played on the green grass (real or artificial).

I never like playing the host country even if na Qatar. Referees like to impress the home crowd and the dignitaries even if they're not bribed.

We’re stacked on cardboard bro.

That's not a super intimidating Ivorian squad, most of their midfielders/players are in the twilight of their careers

Squad:
Goalkeepers: Boubacar Barry (Beveren, Belgium), Gerard Gnanhouan (Montpellier, France), Jean-Jacques Tizie (Esperance, Tunisia)
Defenders: Arthur Boka (Racing Strasbourg, France), Guy Demel (Hamburg SV, Germany), Cyrille Domoraud (Creteil, France), Emmanuel Eboue (Arsenal, England), Blaise Kossi Kouassi (Troyes, France), Abdoulaye Meite (Olympique Marseille, France), Kolo Toure (Arsenal, England), Marc Zoro (Messina, Italy)

this squad would beat today's squad 5-0 and they didn't win, nothing to fear.

That’s a mediocre squad by Ivorian standards. It’s gonna be a tough tournament for them as hosts.

@ Tobi and Emir,

I need you two to settele this. Was Boubacar Barry a good goal keeper? Besides the penalty save, I thought he was pants but my guy King Futcha thinks he's a legend lol

[vancity eagle]

This ivorian squad is more balanced than the Golden generation one.

More options at CB. Besides Yaya, this midfield is better with Kessie, Sangare, Fofana

Drogba, Yaya, boka, eboue, Zokora, Kolo Toure are the big players from that team though.

The current midfied is average, lots of aging player etc, defence looks solid, attack is decent as alway.

It's asinine to compare this current Ivorian squad to their previous golden generation, not even close in quality and depth.

Ivory Coast will struggle as host in this AFCON

Barry was a conundrum for me, there were those moments when he was absolutely world class, and there was those moments when you wondered if he was a postman just randomly picked up from the streets to man the post for CIV...I wouldn't call him a legend, but he was a likable fellow and was at best average.
