Essien, Drogba, now John Obi Mikel....all out of the tournament. This WC is falling to pieces for me before it even start! I find once teams reach the point where their final 23 have to be declared.....and players make the kinda tackles that that japanese whale hunter made on Drogs to potentially put him out of the tournament (especially in a pre-tournament FRIENDLY!!) then he should get put back on his ship and sent home, withOUT a replacement!! Leave dem wit a 22-man roster in dey ass!! There was no excusing that tackle.....even if Drogba may have contributed to his injury with that dramatic fall to the ground....
