Well I'd say they drew the second toughest. A and D are cupcakes. What's your beef with Senegal?Was hoping that Senegal would draw the toughest group possible but it is not to be.
Wanted Mane back at Liverpool.
Renard's main attributes are his recruiting and his flexibility. He's not a tactical genius, his offenses have absolutely no form, hence why he's never been able to keep a Ligue 1 job. When he got here everyone celebrated him getting Boufal but I honestly thought securing Tannane was bigger. Boufal overlaps with Belhanda and Ziyech, he can't play all of them at once, kinda the Algeria dilemma with all the attacking midfielders. Tannane however is a true upgrade on that right wing and he was easily their best player against Gabon.It's not as fierce as Algeria vs Egypt
Morocco is gonna ne so good with Renard

They need to do much better than they did against Gabon offensively, DR Congo's offense is actually marginally better than Gabon's, but if they beat DR Congo they could sneak into the out rounds.
I hope Algeria play Cote D'Ivoire in the finals, that or Senegal/Cote D'Ivoire. Far and away the three best teams in CAF. In AFCON for some reason upsets before 2013 were the norm (as opposed to WC qualifiers), hopefully we get none of those this year, just the best teams go through and win out.
Why not? Algeria are the prohibitive favorites (as nominated by others) to win, they were last time too. Most people think they're head and shoulders above the others. What I've read most people think 1. Algeria 2. Senegal 3. Cote D'IvoireNice post
But finals?
Us?
Hahahahahahahahaha
Nice with arab nations like Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt and Morocco. They are better than most people think.....probaly on the same level as Belgium and Croatia.
But why is other arab nations like Libyia, Iraq, Syria, Saudi, Lebanon etc so bad?

Perhaps, but in the Gabon game Renard started Boussoufa and Belhanda and sat Ziyech, why is beyond me. Because Boufal is a Renard recruit though now that I think about it he should be getting the start.If Boufal is healthy, he's the best Maroc player. Don't see him not start.
