Wilfried Bony (Ivory Coast)
While Didier Drogba is still one of the Ivory Coast’s main stars, Swansea’s Wilfried Bony is a player they can look to should the Galatasaray forward be misfiring. After a slow start to the Premier League, many have doubted Bony’s ability. However after scoring five goals since the start of 2014, he has proved himself as an adequate performer at Premier League level. If he can continue his form at Swansea and bring it to the World Cup- he may just steal the limelight from Drogba & co.
Sead Kolasinac (Bosnia)
After choosing to represent the country of his parents, the German-born Bosnian has boosted the chances of the World Cup newcomers. Known for his abilities to be strong defensively and threatening going forward, he has all the qualities of a good modern day fullback.
He highlighted his strengths in a recent game with Hannover 96, when he assisted the second goal for Jefferson Farfan. If Bosnia are to do well at the World Cup, expect to see Sead Kolasinac bombing down the left touchline making every contribution he can.
