Undisputed starter in back line
Doue has been named in Ivory Coast's World Cup squad and is expected to start at right-back throughout the competition.
Analysis: Doue ended a brillant season at Strasbourg, contributing two goals and seven assists across 34 in all competitions, bringing pace, directness and the ability to contribute offensively to Ivory Coast's defensive setup. The older brother of PSG forward Desire Doue brings an exciting attacking profile from right-back that gives manager Fae an additional outlet on the right flank, and his ability to drive forward makes him difficult for opposing left-backs to handle. His goal against France during the pre-tournament friendlies show exactly what he is capable of bringing to the Elephants.
Starting after illness
Doue (illness) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Angers.
Analysis: Doue was not cleared of his illness, but is still an option Sunday, hopefully not returning too soon this time. He reclaims his role at right-back as he continues to be one of their more influential players in the defense when fit, likely to remain the starting right-back if he keeps fit.
