The coach should be fired immediately for his weak performance.He is in charge, he has no excuse.For his failure to hunt for Ghanaians stars abroad he made a big mistake.The country can not be paying him such a salary and he is under performing,why did he not hunt for other Ghanaian stars?is a tournament of stars of various countries not a place to experiment, he reduced the stars to meteors.The coach is also vindictive and never forgives and that draws negativity.Ghana should have people like Abede or Yeboah as coaches, they are super stars they would send some influence both at home in Internationally.coach appiah is a joke for his remuneration.

NO MATTER YOUR BELIEVE,THE FACT IS THERE IS THE PHYSICAL & THE SPIRITUAL,& ALL THE TWO COMPLEMENTS EACH OTHER.

NYANTAKYI AND AKWASI APPIAH MUST BE TERMINATED!
FIFA WAS ABLE TO TERMINATE FMR SOUTH AFRICAN FA HEAD. NYANTAKYI MUST GO. HE HAS OUTLIVED HIS WELCOME AND IS TOO CORRUPT.
HE WAS EVEN BRIBING REFS AT THIS AFCON TO HELP GH WIN GAMES. UR DAYS AFRE NUMBERED!
TUNISIA, EGYPT(3 PEAT), ZAMBIA, NAIJA ALL WON AFCON WITH LARGELY LOCAL/CONTINENTAL BASED PLAYERS. GFA, MARINATE ON THAT! THIS IS AFCON, NOT WCUP.
CONGRATS TO TEAM NAIJA, BUT REMEMBER THAT THERE IS NOWHERE TO GO BUT DOWNHILL FROM HERE......MARINATE ON DAT.
COACHES NEED TO HVE INTELLIGENCE N A HUSTLE MENTALITY. APPIAH DOES NOT HAVE THAT. HE IS A TEXTBOOK COACH, TYPICAL CHEW N POUR COACH.
CONSTANT REGURGITATING. REAL LIFE GAME SITUATIONS ARE CUMBERSOME, ERRATIC AND UNPREDICTABLE.
THEREFORE, U NEED A COACH WHO CAN ALWAYS HAVE AN ARSENAL TO MEET UNPREDICTABLE SITUATIONS. DESAILLY/KONADU ARE THE READ DEAL FOR GBSTARS.
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WILL USE KASA IN DEFENCE? USE HIM ON THE LEFT WING ALWAYS TO USE HIS LEFTFOOT!
WHEN MENSAH N AWAL CAME IN AGAINST MALI, LOOK HOW RELAXED THE DEFENCE WAS? MAKAA AKAA, U PPL NEVER LISTEN, WHY?
FREE ADVICE TOO U DONT WANT? AA, WO Y3 TU GYIMI.
VORSAH IS NOT A MOBILE DEFENDER AT ALL....WHY EVEN START BOYE?
AA/QQ AND NYANTAKYI MUST BE SENT TO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT, TO THE LIONS DEN.
WHERE WAS ANNAN? WHY START GYAN AGAIN? WHY DIDNT YOU START YIADOM AND CLOTTEY?
AA/QQ, I TOLD YOU TO USE THE 532 FORMATION. THAT IS THE GOLDEN FORMATION.
THE ISSUE HERE IS NOT WITH THE PLAYERS, BUT THE COACH. THE PLAYERS ARE NOT EVEN FIT PHYSICALLY. NO METAL LIFTING
I KEEP TELLING YOU TO MAKE SURE THE PLAYERS LIFT SOME METAL. IT PROTECTS THEM AGAINST INJURIES
AND STRENGTHENS THEIR LIGAMENTS. SO THEY ARE ABLE TO HEAL MUCH QUICKER FROM INJURIES.
I SAID ALL THESE THINGS FROM DAY 1, BUT GHPPL WERE INSULTING ME. LOOK AT THE PHYSIQUE OF THE OTHER NATIONS?
NYANTAKYI AND AA/QQ APPIAH MUST GO INTO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT, THE LIONS DEN.
IF DESAILLY CANT TAKE OVER, ALLOW MAXWELL KONADU. HE WILL ACHIEVE GREATNESS, THAT GUY.
I JUST HOPE HE TAKES CARE OF HIMSELF BCOS GHFUO ARE WICKED. THEY WILL TRY TO POISON HIM, KILL HIM.
MAX IS A SMART GUY N PREPARES WELL FOR EVERY OPPONENT. HE IS NOT SUPERSTITIOUS LIKE AKWASI APPIAH.
APPIAH BELIEVES IN THINGS HE HIMSELF DOES NOT UNDERSTAND, SO HE WILL ALWAYS SUFFER. I MEAN HOW CAN U BELIEVE OR HAVE GYIDI POWER
IN SOMETHING YOU DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND/ONUU SHISHI? (under stand).
IM SURE APPIAH WENT AND CONSULTED JUJU BEFORE THE
AFCON TOURNEY AND THOUGHT JUJU WOULD SAVE HIS BLACK ASS. WAT A FOOL. HE SHULD GO AND ASK MOURINHO, RIJKAARD, GUARDIOLA, FERGUSON
IF THEY HAVE JUJU..muahahaha agyeeeii!...TYPICAL OLD FOOL SET IN HIS WAYS.
THIS IS WAT WE CALL SUPERSTITIION...LIKE JUJU! AA/QQ, MALLAM CHOP YOUR MONEY FREE!
TONY BAFFOE FOR GFA HEAD. WE DONT NEED A WHITE COACH. WE NEED TO STOP DEALING WITH PUMA!
I BELIEVE IN KONADU OR DESAILLY COACHING GBSTARS ASAP! THEY ARE OUR ONLY HOPE, THESE 2.
WHEN NAIJA BOY, ENGLAND BORN VICTOR MOSES, WHO PLAYED FOR UK U15, U17, U20. ENGLAND WANTED TO WRAP HIM UP.
MOSES LATER DECIDED TO SWITICHED ALLEGIANCES N FINALLY PLAY FOR NAIJA.
MEANWHILE, BALOTELLI AND WELBECK CANT BE INFLUENCED BY NYANTAKYI TO PLAY FOR GH? NYANTAKYI N AA MUST VAMOOSE!
IF TONY BAFFOE WAS GFA HEAD, ALL THESE CHANGES WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN GH'S FAVOR, DOUBLE DOUBLE....
GOD HAS TURNED HIS EYES AWAY FROM GHFUO BCOS OF OUR FILTHY WAYS.
WE HAVE NO RECOLLECTION OF THE PAST. WE R TOO CORRUPT FOR OUR OWN GOOD. FILTHY, FOOD POISONERS!
LOOK, I DONT KNOW WHY GOD HAS BLESSED ME WITH ALL THESE WORTHY IDEAS.
IM NOT SEEKING ANY MONETARY GAIN FOR MY IDEAS. I JUST WANT TO SEE GH DO WELL SO WE CAN ALL HAVE HAPPINESS AND PEACE IN OUR HOMES.
GFA, YOU EITHER TAKE ADVANTAGE AND BE SUCCESSFUL OR YOU DONT AND PERISH.
IF AA HAD LISTENED OR RESPECTED MY IDEAS FROM DAY 1, HE WOULD HAVE AT
LEAST BEEN IN THE FINAL. WHAT A SHAME! GOD BLESS GH.
THANK YOU....

It is quite a stretch and foolhardy to link the Black Star's lackluster performance in AFCON 2013 to the December 7, 2012 election results and the impending Supreme Court decision.
In sports, just as in party politics, if you don't field the best team, you don't win, period.
Last Sunday, Baltimore Raven were able to win the Super Bowl because the team they fielded played better than the team that lost.
The fact is we did not field the best team for AFCON 2013. Hindsight is 20/20, but we should have gone the extra mile to bring Michael Essien, Abeyie, Waris, Muntari, and the Ayews into the team.

You should be reminded that the results of the presidential election is a matter before the Supreme Court. Until the outcome is declared, nothing is cast in stone. It is therefore, premature to assert that "in sports, just as in party politics, if you don't field the best team, you don't win, period".

While your assertion may be accurate in sports, the same cannot always be accurate about party politics. Hence the Constitution makes provision for the Supreme Court to adjudicate on electoral disputes, to ascertain whether indeed a party won only because it fielded the "best team" as you assert.

Non of the parties fielded a strong team, that's why we ended up in the Supreme Court.

Yes, if you say we failed to field the best players ever, yes, I agree with you. During the period, I realised that free-kicks and corner kicks are always directed on the ground. Why this inexperience! yet he continued to kick our free kicks and corners. Look like Atsu too performed woefully. Kwesi Appiah knowing that there was no way we could beat Burkinafaso within regulation extra time removed Wakaso, our only hope for the pernalty leaving Asamoah Gyan who dead mother had asked him not to take penalty picks. Why then did he take free-kicks. The whole selection beats my imagination and I have vowed never to waste my time even ten minutes listening or watching the Black Stars in any future event.

Why did one of the NPP leaders congratulated the Black Star Team when they were at the top of their Group? The bad luck started right there and I pray he will not go to the Supreme Court to sue the Coach and the entire team for loosing. The NPP can sue for the weather going above 100 degrees in December. Volta Region should be careful for false oil find announcement. Tsikata may have another Supreme Court defense trial soon.
