After the pandemonium of the AFCON and the Super Bowl, having some time to sit down.
I think Fae keeps his job unquestionably. I'm interested to see how that goes. The next step is the world cup. Qualifying for it is step one. If we get there, I think there's still a big gap in play between us and the top European teams. I think our level is like a mid-table Ligue 1 team, and the top teams are obviously basically all star teams. Which still more reflects the difference between CAF and UEFA/CONMEBOL, I think we are legitimately top class within CAF, and I think CAF is better than some other regions. Still, I'm excited to see how things pan out, even if they could pan out poorly. Historically, Cote D'Ivoire has been very bad at parking the bus, so it will be an uphill climb if ever we get to face the big guns.
