  • EVIL DWARF FROM KYEBI 9 years ago

    KEEP THESE EBOLA PLAYERS OUT! They will infect the other younger players with their indiscipline. They're too old, and football is played by young boys and girls....not people with fake ages.

  • Okomfo, London 9 years ago

    MUNTARI did what a true son of Ghana should do.He loves Ghana, hence his action against those good for nothing crooks.In life one should never shirk sleep for fear of death.

  • Asunafo 9 years ago

    Grant is a TEAM-PLAYER.

  • Soothsayer 9 years ago

    How many times should Muntari and Kevin be forgiven?I hope they will not spoil the others when they return to camp . For me they shd stay away even if we cannot make it to the knock out stages.

  • Campaign Against Corruption 9 years ago

    Allah Karim, Avram's open door policy seems to be the clean sheet approach which should help put everything behind us. We hope a new Black Stars is born under Avram's inspirational approach.

  • truth 9 years ago

    Nothing against him but if you put 100,000 dollars as more important than a nation then I guess SOMETHING is WRONG. No matter how well you play soccer. In Akan we say Nipa anim b3 ku asise then ana sika nim ku asie.

    The nation deserves a winning Black Stars team. And we should give the new coach and his new staff the support and the resources to get the job done.

  • CYBERGHANA 9 years ago

    With the experiences of Essien, Muntari, and Kevin the Black Stars would be a formidable team to beat in Afcon 2015. Especially, with an experienced coach at the realm.

    Avram Grant is a tactician and smart enough to begin his coaching job with the Black Stars on a reconciliatory note . There are divided opinions on the conduct of the three stars.

    this is a very wrong move taken by coach Grant. these three players can not add anything good to our game. they would rather spoil the young ones .after all Suley and are aged and for Prince, he is not patriotic to Ghana.

  • Jacob Anoo 9 years ago

    Yes this is a great coach,we need good players to win matches so if you sack your good players and decide to keep your average players like Adoma and Fatao Douda, you will always be sacked like kwasi Appiah.

    I think this coach will be the best apart from Dosena if the mafia group in the GFA allow him to take critical decision by himself
