Jute Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Normally enjoy this tournament and will be watching again. Be interesting to see what SKYs coverage is like. Fear it might just be centred on players playing in EPL but hopefully not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 (edited) Looking forward to Fernandy Mendy ending up in the Team of the Tournament and leaving us all scratching our heads. Edit: @HibeeJibee, are those local times or UK times? Just to save me having to bother my arse to work it out.

Ro Sham Bo Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Not sure if Willis Furtado is still based in Scotland but I'm sure I read he was involved in this as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I love this competition. It’s absolute madness and has some of the worst goalkeeping you will ever see. Burkino Faso going with a 2-4-4 formation to kick off proceedings 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 (edited) Brilliant goal for Burkina Faso. No expert on African football but a bit of a minter of Cameroon lose this no? Just had a look. Decent team, talking out my arse Edited January 9, 2022 by RosspCfc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
