I’m missing them, because it’s my team,’ said Mane after the 2-1 win over Ghana in Mongom. ‘But I’m happy because I’m watching them every, every game, and I’m happy for the team.

Ah, sweet. We do always seem to have such a nice welcoming team - I'm sure that's played a big part in our quick success this year. And means a lot to me too!

Phew ... at first glance, and not totally paying attention to the screen (my weetabix was priority #1) I thought the Thread tittle was "Southampton's Mane Missing" :uhoh:

 

WTF ..... gone AWOL or kidnapped ... oh noes!! Luckily my eyes refocused and panic over. :blush:

Now it all becomes clear Arnoutovic who now plays by Stoke is a notorious bad boy in football and Elias falling off the rails seems to coincide with their friendship.

 

Arnoutovic is also an incredible talent with a small brain.

 

Elias has landed on his feet with Ronald.

At last we have players who seem to believe it to be a privilege to play for Saints. Pochettino's legacy was a squad of mercenaries who couldn't wait to jump ship thus devaluing the club in the eyes of the world, now we have a guy in charge whom players are queuing up to die for. What a contrast and what a change.

Poor Sadio. First Elia slides seamlessly into his first team slot (oo-er missus) and now he has hijacked his thread.

 

Think Rickie Lah got crowbarred in there too.

South Africa 0-0 Senegal

Senegal's Sadio Mane makes a good driving run from midfield and Thulani Hlatshwayo does really well to intercept his attempted through-ball.

Sadio Mane has be industrious for Senegal so far, and it looks like South Africa are doubling up on him.

Is head to head valued over GD in this tournament or did the commentators just not know the correct standings?

 

When Algeria went 2-0 and Ghana was 1-1 Ghana were ahead on GD but not going through?

Yup, it's head to head, although academic now. Group D tomorrow is the interesting one. They've all been draws so far.

Would it be a suprise if Toure and Bony are crap, Ivory Coast lose, then they play for City against Chelsea at the weekend?
