Month: August 2013

The manager of the Ivory Coast national football team, Sabri Lamouchi, has announced a 23-member squad for the upcoming friendly match against Mexico which is going to be played at MetLife Stadium, New York.

The veteran player Didier Drogba has also managed to find a spot in that squad. The 35 years old striker has come back into the national team after a gap of 5 months. He was dropped after Ivory Coast’s poor outing in Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year.

The top four seem to have stamped their authority on the 2013/14 season before a ball’s been kicked, largely due to the fact that Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea are keen to capitalise on Fergie’s retirement which has blown betting odds all over.
