@Marex, Currently,Cameroun doesn't have strikers/midfielders in the league of Roger Milla and Theophile Abega (Greek?  .Dude played in 82 world cup and is one of the finest mid-fielder to come from Africa)....But i must admit that Alex Song has come off age.He reminds me of Jean Pierre Tigana.Hardy,sticky and he is everywhere.He is the kid to watch......All said and done,i think this cup still belongs to the Egyptians....If only they stopped playing theatrics for a month. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Trust etoo...to single handedly strike for cameroon....otherwise hu else been scoring goals in cameroon. am sure Ghana, Egypy, Ivory coast and Cameroon wont miss in the semis, meaning that nigeria will drop a long way before. however Ghana got injury problems....have they confirmed that John Pantsil and Michael Essien ae playing.. just discovered Morroco is not in the Cup...whatever happened to south Africa, Morroco and senegal!!! u watched 1982 world cup ama you are reading history books? The way I am

Personally I would like Cameroon to exit early. We Gunners need him back in the squad. Washana na wa egypt washukue hio kitu. Anyway, I hope Ghana/ Ivory coast go far for two reasons. First, because I wish them the best in the World Cup, so this is good preparation. Secondly, it will keep Chelsea guys for longer in the ACN... Form is temporary, class is permanent

I always support Nigeria and will stick by them, it's always great to enter some of these competitions as underdogs as the pressure then is low on the players and the technical bench!@!! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

@Mcreggae, Not when you are world cup bound. @Marex, Players who have been on the bench tend to prove alot in the absence of regulars.....Again,go through the fixture again.Man U is meeting tough teams in the very last quarter.The same cannot be said of Gunners and the Blues.If Rio stays down and Vidic bolts,then the game against Leeds Khayega was a warm up to thorough thrashings ahead...(Sweet music to Pondi's ears ) Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Why do Guys rate Ivoty Coast and will all know they usually dissapoint? Cause of Drogba, Kalou, The Toures etc??? These Guys will be thonking of their European Clubs and wont have a big impact on their Country.
Final will be Ghana v Camerou.!!!

@Guka,(As old.....hehe...!!..By this time i had jumped city stadium walls many times to watch Gor and Epsi play regional powerhouses like Limbe Leaf,Rio Tinto,Berec Power Pac,Nkana Red Devils,Power Dynamos,KCC (Hapana maziwa...bure wewe...!!...Kampala City Council...lol) KMKM Zanzibar (Kikozi Maalum cha Kuzuia Magendo).....and yes,i was ther when Djoliba Stars........) Hizi ni nini!! Ati these teams were LOCAL POWERHOUSES?? Eish!!! U remind me of that advert ""kijana,how many years have u been in form one?"

@Jakom, I said regional powerhouses...bure wewe. .!!On the local scene, besides Epsi (Formerly Abaluhya FC), Gor Mahia and Luo union,we had teams like Feisal,Hakati sportiff,Gema United,Maragoli united,Abeingo............Sometimes in the early days of Daniel's rule,the man directed that all football teams in Kenya do away with tribal names.Abaluhyia FC became AFC leopards (You realise the first initial still stands for Abaluhyia..heh),Gor Mahia took the name Gulf Olympic Rangers (GOR) and dropped Mahia.This was restored later after some Luo elders went on their knees for the name.Luo union became Re-union and if my memory serves me right,Gema united became Nakuru Wanderers. @GG, Can you add some more.I see pia wewe ni wa before na haukaja wakati moja na reli...

It will be hard to know which teams progress,football these days is not about names et all. But teams to watch in my two-cent opinion,Cameroon and Egypt(they need a consolation coz of world cup). For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. Romans 5:19

@Ja-kom, Most of this teams are no more.....and their death,coupled with that of Olympic centres, meant the end of Kenyan football.......BTW,do you know the name of the first semi-professional team in Kenya?.... Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

I meant paid to play football......The team was Volcano United started by Austrian hotelier Gerry Saurer.The man had such passion for football.....But as would be expected,KFF and our jinga politics screwed up this very noble project...we are a sad lot.
