Mondragon is in the game :lol:

At 43, he's the oldest player to ever play in a World Cup.

I truly feel sorry for Drogba for playing with these clowns.

Ivory Coast have more than enough talent.


seriously i can't think of another african team that had more talent than this. 90s cameroon wasn't this good.


Talent as in speed and physicality? That doesn't win you a world cup unless its accompanied by some semblance of soccer IQ and cohesive team play, something this Ivory Coast team are lacking.

talent as in general playing capability. they can't play as a team, doesn't mean individually players are not talented.

That was a Messi/CR level finish. James is a phenomenal talent- I knew he'd be good watching him at Porto but I didn't think he'd be this good this soon.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.
