African Cup of Nations

[Villafirst]

Rushian HM needs some game time. Not exactly encouraging him to sign a new contract. He should be on the bench at least.

African cup of nations kicks off today . However ivory coast and kodjia begin Monday and Jordan Ayew Ghana starts Tuesday.

I quite enjoy watching this, but Villa/work commitments and laziness mean I won't be able to watch whole games. Is any channel showing highlights?

Well tv channel wise eurosport : .
Live coverage of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations will be shown live on UK television by British Eurosport.

The internet is where its at though for highlights like I dont bother with motd as sky soccer let you see mobile goals straight away.. Caf tv on YouTube will show highlights good way to have quick catch up of goals and things.
I'm sure other internet channels will have highlights and anything people can post up.
There was a time BBC / bbc3 had afcon and maybe itv2/itv4 showed matches and highlights.  Think someone missed a trick here but as I say internet highlights on various sites and channels means less willingness to coverage on tv in UK.

The trouble with Internet highlights is ill probably end up finding out the score while i search which will ruin it. I'll probably just watch the odd game.

Obviously hope the Ivory ****** get knocked out.

Kodjia scored for Ivory Coast the other day didn't he?

I think I might use my air miles and fly out for the Elephants' games.

He's first choice ahead of bony as striker

When does it end and when is JK likely to be back?

We should be fine. Kodj and Ayew are obviously going to be misses - but we've got enough numbers: Gestede, McCormack, Gabby, Adomah and Grealish is enough for the forward positions. We've an embarrassment of riches up-front at this level.

not looking so good is it?

He's half right. We have an embarrassment.

[JJ-AV]

In my defence - Gestede has gone and Gabby and McCormack have got even worse.

[brian green]

Got fatter too.

Ivory Coast play their first 2 games this week, so do Ghana. The group stages and quarter finals are done by the end of next week, the whole thing a week later.

Knowing our luck Kodija injured in the final with Ghana, leg break from horror Ayew tackle.

Being linked with African Guédioura who is away with Algeria.  3 million bid for midfielder who  isn't even going to be available- the Sun!(read online didn't buy it!) Really if that's an option feels silly .
