Started for Cote d'Ivoire v Burkina Faso.

60 mins gone CIV 2-0 BF

Involved in creating the opener.

So far he's been more of a nuisance than a threat.

The CIV forward line aren't really playing as a unit, not moving around to create space for one another or linking up either.

A common problem with tournament football when the team's spread across multiple leagues, and doesn't get together very often?

I'd posted elsewhere: selected again for an important fixture, commentators raving about his defensive performance.

But there's still something missing.

He burst through at one point, chopped back onto his left to take the defender out the game, then… instead of blattering it, sort of lost interest when in front of the keeper. Defender got back, took the ball back off him.

Been subbed off now.

Even the goal he scored for us in the Europa - was like he tried his best not to get on the end of it!

Bit of an epic game.

CI’s second was an almighty goalmouth scramble that Evann, in true Guessand fashion, watched develop around him, as though he was in his armchair.

Still, he did score during the tournament and impressed sufficiently so that he got increasing game time.

Hopefully Wolfsburg or Rennes were watching and agree to ammortize him.

Fucking cart horse. Wandered around in the 2nd half, looking completely lost.

Complete waste of a shirt.

Yep. Might as well have played with ten men.

There were players just as bad if not worse today but I don't think I have seen a signing with as little talent for us for a long time. I'll be amazed if this lad makes it in the prem.

Find a buyer, whatever the price. If no buyer, fire him out a canon into the sea. Absolutely dreadful.
