    i have contended that packing maxwell konadu, nasamu yakubu & saban quaye on the technical bench was a collosal deservice GFA caused to ghana football.

  • OSEI TAWIAH 10 years ago

    Marcel Desailly is a Frenchman, he he's got a French name, played for France and decided to a charge French coach fee to manage the Black Stars. We don't need any half-baked Ghanaian on our technical bench.

  • Kanewu 10 years ago

    It's important to have somebody in the technical team that has experience playing at the world cup. More importantly Stephen Appiah will be getting some needed coaching experience for the future.

  • Rasheed.@Rasheedmulor 10 years ago

    What is Appiah going to do in Brazil? Is he going coach the players or is he going to learn how to coach from Akwesi Appiah?.

  • Nana Yaa 10 years ago

    Some Ghanaians are Fooooool. How much will it cost Ghana to bring in a foreign coach when Appiah was able to qualify us to Brazil. The money for foreign coach could subsidise Electricity and Water bills.

  • BA 10 years ago

    Yes, I think having the two Appiah brothers in our camp will be a major boost to our team's confidence before the big thing.

    God Bless Ghana and the Appiah Brothers.

  • natty 10 years ago

    You can't send someone and follow the person along to whichever destination intended but rather take the person with you. If the journalist was quoting Kwasi Appiah then I'm not surprised that much.

  • Mark 10 years ago

    You can send someone to a place by the hand of another, and still go there yourself (maybe to check things out).
