omg y'all i cant even believe whats happening in gabon they took down their whole national team squad coach thierry mouyouma and like half the players got axed even pierre-eric Aubameyang wasnt spared from the chop and now they're suspending everyone who played in the africa cup of nations lol what a disaster! i feel bad for the fans, tbh but like what did we expect? the gov is basically saying 'hey, our football team is trash' and now they're gonna have to rebuild from scratch its def gonna be an interesting ride for gabon's football program

I gotta say, I feel for Thierry Mouyouma, the coach. He got a bad rap from this whole situation . Sure, Gabon had a rough tournament, but you can't blame one guy for everything. Aubameyang's right, it's not just about individual players, it's the team chemistry and strategy too . And what's with the government overreacting like this? I mean, come on, a 3-2 loss isn't the end of the world . It's all part of the game. Maybe they should've taken a step back and had a more nuanced conversation about the team's issues instead of just making drastic decisions .

I'm not surprised to see Gabon take such drastic measures after getting thrashed in the Africa Cup of Nations . It's like they're trying to rewrite history or something. I mean, come on, a 3-2 loss to Côte d'Ivoire and they just give up? It's not like it was a fluke win for them, they got beat by the other teams too.

But what really gets me is that they're targeting individual players instead of taking a hard look at the team as a whole. I mean, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been a top player in Africa for years, he's not just going to magically turn himself into a bad player overnight . And what about the coaching staff? Was it really that bad?

Anyway, this is definitely a setback for Gabon's football program and it'll be interesting to see how they recover from this. Maybe they should take some time to reflect on what went wrong instead of just panicking and making drastic decisions .

Idk how long a coach gets to sit there and get roasted like that! 3-2 down to Côte d'Ivoire, you're basically done. They should've benched him or somethin' . And now the whole team's on suspension? That's just cruel . I feel bad for Aubameyang, he did try to defend himself but it's hard when everyone's already having a meltdown . Anyway , it's gonna be a tough road ahead for Gabon.
