Lot of respect for Kone. He's progressed through the game really quickly since the moment he became a pro, and he's been exposed to a lot of coaches in a short period of time. Things have come at him really fast, but the important thing is that he seems to be taking it all and reflecting what it means, and learning from it in order to keep progressing.
Quit with the political virtue signalling. Canada has had nearly 10 years of a disastrous federal government and the country has been decimated. We are all ready to move on. In the meantime, can we enjoy international soccer without the politics please? I really hope Ismael can find a new gear and play a starring role in our midfield – that's one of the key ingredients we have been lacking…
Seems like I need to learn what happened at Marseille – Ismael has only one path and that is upwards. Insanely level headed, precisely what we need on this team and midfield.

Class act! Despite adversity, Koné has the passion and right attitude to persevere in this oftentimes cruel profession!
What a mature young man. Gotta be tough to have your manager publicly say he doesn't rate you
Very raw interview,
I like the kid a lot.
He has all the potential in the world.
I think he still has to grow into a man, I thought he was cry there.

Dont know why but he looked so determined! Man is about to score a hattrick for fun.
I watch Ligue1 and unfortunately must report that Koné has also been underwhelming at Rennes

What a great Canadian ! Everything! Everything !
wow. Kone as matures. The way he reflected on his journey. Nice.

Ismaël doesn’t take half measures…
With lessons learned, I believe Kone will be shining more brightly on even bigger stages.
Love what he said at the end. I’m glad to hear that mentality is popular in the dressing room
Amazing perspective
