According to this report he was indeed an unused sub for the Ivory Coast in their 2-0 victory over Tanzania yesterday

When was the photo supposedly taken? is he usually a starter? could he have been a sub due to his late flight into Ivory Coast? (say if the photo was from Friday and he joined his team mates straight after)

I'm not saying it is or it isn't him, the pic itself seemed inconclusive, the fact he was in Africa yesterday casts doubt surely but I suppose its not totally impossible he could have been at the Lane before flying to Africa

Maybe it was SpursKing in the picture? and he was there to submit this years suitable players list?

I was at the stadium tour today and there was clearly a player being shown around, the tour staff said they didn't have a clue who it was either. And the bald chap is levy's brother and transfer liaison who was with verthongen against fulham and today at the lane with a transfer target. Saw the car drive out and the player was in the back of the car and not the person shown getting in the front of car in the picture earlier.

Strange that, seeing as it was taken at a football stadium :eek:

Why select only a portion of what I wrote? Being at/by a football stadium on a Sunday doesn't mean you have to be involved in football. Obviously when the guy took the picture he had people like you in mind(y)

I did see the one we thought was the player but could not put a name to the face. Of note, wasn't the flashest Mercedes he was being driven about in compared to levy's brother. Also the tour guide was pretty convinced about verthongen. My gf has a pic of them getting in the car aswell I'll see if I can get it on the computer in the next few days if nobody is announced, think its blurred though as was rushing to take it so don't hold your breath.
