Also yeah your allright Selliti shouldn’t even have a chance imo, but if Coelho keeps selecting him then there must be a reason he keeps giving him chances, i guess we just have to wait for the day we get to see what he sees.

I think it’s a tactical move mostly by Coelho to incorporate local players, he knows he has to make the best of it so why not use players who are more addept to eachother, mix it up with the players who are available from Europe let them train and socialize for a couple of days and who knows what you might get.

Despite this surpriselist i must say im very excited to see it’s outcome, one fact is for sure those local players are going to work hard to prove themselfs

I agree with you Rami, I am not a fan of him and Chammam, I just can’t stand them, especially Korbi, he is not NT worthy and does not belong on it. He should learn from what happened to Ben freg, who is better then him and still not playing and haven’t heard from him in a while.

Speaking of Sudan. Check this Sudanese guy imitating Issam Chawali. It’s on point: http://www.facebook.com/inbox/readmessage.php?t=1150276044942#/video/video.php?v=1146975028094&ref=nf

Nope, he played 15 mins against Jendouba and looked perfectly fine. Not at his absolute best but that’s to be expected considering he wasn’t out for over a month. I understand him not making the list though. We need players who are all in their best form.

Feedi, that’s cool I’m sure it will be fun to watch the game with him then. Sudan has a very respectable team.

Thamer, the list isn’t as bad as you might think. Some of those players (US Monastir ones in particular) are really talented. It’s obviously not our strongest list but it should be interesting to say the least. I’m not a Korbi fan but I guess that’s mostly cuz I think he added pressure on himself and on his team with that “rouba3ia” talk. Nevertheless, it’ll be interesting to see how him and the Club Africain players get along in training and during the match if he plays. A chance for him to show he’s a professional… He’s got some skills and I like his aggression (something Esperance was desperately needing in previous years) but he need to work on his image a bit. It’s just an opinion…

This game vs Sudan, is like an all star game for the Tunisian League, With the best players in the Tunisian League.

And Rami, is Dhouadi still injured?

haha, wow, i thought achraf was kidding, but that really is a bad list. w/e, we can still beat sudan with the best players from that list and im sure the european based talent wasnt called up because their seasons are still going on, the list will get better, im sure.

Selliti in the team.Come on!Is khalfallah injuried or something.
I hoped Chikhaoui was called-up.Jaidi is in the team!Haggui is out the team.
I think that Coelho wants to let young players play to improve himsels and get a better club.But now are allot of injuries and allot of people that must to play a big game so I understand somethings.Lets hope the list for Mozambique is better.I am exited about the game,my stepfather is Sudanees!
