Just wanted to say Good luck to Sol Bamba (if he plays which i think he will cause he played all mst of games) in the Live Africa Cup of Nations final: Zambia v Ivory Coast
And he'll come back and not even get into the mighty foxes team Seriously though, good luck to him, imagine if he scored a last minute winner...........
Yep, good luck Big Man Although, I wouldn't under-estimate Zambia. They're a decent counter-attacking side who beat Ghana in the semi's. But I don't think Ivory Coast have conceded a goal all tournament so Bamba and Kolo Toure seem to be doing well out there. However, when he returns, he'll have a job getting back in the side or even onto the bench. For the record, I still feel him and Mills are our best defensive pairing. But if/when he comes back into the side, I can see SSL asking to leave again because he stated that he needs to be playing week in, week out to stay in the Ireland team.
Prob won't either, the work Mills does goes un-noticed, giving more light to shine on the other defenders. Goals conceded isn't too much of a problem though imo.
I´ll be watching the game today. Good luck Sol, just come back in one piece & ready for the play off push.
With Drinkwater starting on saturday the midfield over ran Cardiff completely. Drinkwater and Wellens was both coming short for the ball all the time meaning Mills didnt have to smash it long. Mills and St. Ledger look solid together and with Bamba, Tunchev and Morgan competing for shirts Mills and St. Ledger will have to carry on their recent form to keep the shirts
Sol is having a good game so far, made 2 or 3 good challenges/clearances. He´s looking sharp (18th min).
I´m watching it on EURO SPORT, but I live in Germany so I ain´t got a clue what it´s on in the UK. Anyway 0-0 at HT & Sol is playing quite solid. Drogba, Kalou, Gervinho, Yaya Toure, Tiote & Kolo Toure are finding it hard v the Zambians. That 21 year old left winger from Zambia looks good, forget his name.. Balala or something ? he´s got 3 A´s in his name anyway.
