A lot of my childhood friends are Nigerian, so it’s the Super Eagles for me!

Also, why don’t European nations have such extravagant names? Super Eagles; Indomitable Lions; I hope someone adopts “the X-Men”

Back to AFCON. Glad Sky are showing it this year.

The problem has always been exposure to the tournament. No one hardly ever shows it. Next year that will change.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The BBC used to show it. If anything, it has been closed off to more people by moving to Sky.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At least they will make a big deal about it. Bigger than the beeb anyway.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why would making a big deal about it matter? Is the product that sh.t it needs talked up? You know all the massive empty stadiums it will feel just like lockdown again. Sounds like AFCON have sold out to the biggest bidder rather than wider coverage?

Pretty sure in the past Eurosport and ch4 have had the rights and shown every game?

This year Sky showing all games and the beeb 10. They can punt Wright to talk it up or is he too 'big'?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You either watch it or you don't 👍🏻

Replying to a journalist on Saturday, who asked if Klopp was "relieved" they had got through a busy period with "no international break until March", Klopp laughed and replied: "I've heard that so often that there's no international break until March. In January, there's a little tournament in Africa, I just want to say, and I think Asia is playing games, too - South America as well, great, can't wait."

As much as I dislike Sandy, he is right for once.

I watched a documentary the other night, about a man attempting to climb the 15 highest mountains in the world.
I recall him saying after climbing K2, that he just had 'the little matter' of climbing Everest'.
What a disrespectful p. r1c k. 🙃

Ivory Coast for me, no club tribalism, of course.

Other than that I'll support Egypt and Senegal, again, no club tribalism.

----------------------------------------------------------------------A Wakanda team will easily dismantle both Liverpool and Man City combined hands down that is if you are referring African as Wakanda.

Wakanda United:

Defenders:

Ashraf Hakimi..(Morocco)… Kalidou Koulibaly..(Sen)…,Joel Marip(Cameroon)

Midfielders:

Who’s disrespecting it
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Your manager for one


Jurgen Klopp calls Africa Cup of Nations a "little tournament in Africa"
----------------------------------------------------------------------

You just read the headline and fell for the out of context, typical talk sports fan 😆. Gullible
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Nah just quoting your manager. Did he or not say it was a small tournament. Deal with it fella.

You lot are so insular.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I was waiting for the Liverpool baiting from Sandy to start ….not missed this

Now the Tottenham board will descend into Sandy v Liverpool again

Sandy, if you had read the report where that headline came from you would realise it was not what Klopp meant at all…..it was a tongue in cheek remark

Like saying there is just a little hill over there and pointing at Everest
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And no it won`t descend into a Sandy v Liverpool again, not from me anyway. I cannot help it if they are so precious, they jump on every little thing that is supposedly construed as ante-Liverpool. They give it out big time, but anything said against Liverpool, however justified, and they swarm all over it likes flies to shiiiiiite.

Not my fault they are such a sensitive lot. Any other set of supporters you can have a reasonable discussion with, not that lot though, they are so blinkered to their own club, you dare not critisise them at all for fear of upsetting them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

You were literally demanding a change in the offside law because Harry Kane had a goal correctly disallowed...
