  what made our stars failed to lift the trophy was the pressure some of us gave to them , you do mention wakasso, which i admittt he is a good player and spot kicks, but dont forget he lost a spot against mali so where is the logic?
  Muntali was injuried-that was why he was not part of the team, Dede was called and later droped becouse he failed to report on time-and i suported Akwasi Appia on that decision-BLACK STAR IS FOR EVERY GHANAIAN SO !1 OR 2" PLAYERS SHOULD NOT ALLOW TO HOSTAGED the nation
  if you want to play with the blackstar ,you should also learn to be deciplined
  now KPB -the guy wrote his resgination letter to GFA -i dont get how some of you guys think. it was his decision and everybody must accept that. it was not a coach, not GFA who parted ways with KPB , he himself parted ways with ghana national team with a reason that he can not play for his club and the national team. for now that is the main reason we know- if there are other reasons we dont know so cant comment on that.
  in a nutshell if he kpb think he can play now for country and club he has to write to the gfa that he is now available for selection if we need his services- until KPB write a letter to rescind his decision , how can you blame the coach or GFA not inviting him?

  Look at our pre tournament frienflies and see how good the team plsyed without refs and look at the tournament with refs aiding us.That was the reason.Kwasi Appiah was in charge both times.Its goodvto be calm at this time.Ghana's top gun are starting to peak after that AFCON.Let Nigeria take that title.Remember two matches into it there were calls for Siasia to be sacked.You watch Appiah and the stars make it to the world cup.If Ghana met Mali,Nigeria,Burkina Faso today..they would be no match.What the team went through was a necessity for greater things Appisj will be more open to the Ayews and co..and for the corrupt FA..or officials..who can actually sack them..to be realistic.Govt can"t intervene unless they resign.But they need to bd more trsnsparent in their dealings.

  SENSIBLE piece of comment from you.I hope some of us with negative comments can read your simple analysis and come back to their senses, and come up with a better and constructive criticism of the coach and the GFA to help lift the flag of Ghana up.Those who are filled with HATRED and RACISM should know that they don't have a place in this modern Ghana so they should get lost from this forum

  I think the average Ghanaian fan is spoiled. I think that WC appearances in 2006 and 2010 along with final four appearances at AFCON in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2013 is not bad for any national team. I think that in all the ab ...

  I think the average Ghanaian fan is spoiled. I think that WC appearances in 2006 and 2010 along with final four appearances at AFCON in 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2013 is not bad for any national team. I think that in all the above tournaments we had players who missed opportunities that no coach could have controlled. I look back to the 2008 semi-final in Accra against Cameroon. If you see how many shots were missed by the Black Stars, it will break your heart. Arguably, we had our best team that year. If the players cannot put two goals in the net per game, we cannot win tournaments.

  The writer of this masterful article should one day, I pray, be the G.F.A chairman,why? Just look at the way he brought some sense as to why Ghana as a football loving nation is retrogreesing at incerdible levels and need to rethink and find its path as once dominant soccer powerhouse of Africa

  DANNY WELBECK, A GHANAIAN FOOTBALLER, GAVE MAN U A 1-0 WIN OVER REAL MARID. A WEEK AFTER, SULLEY MUNTARI AND KELVIN PRINCE BOATENG LED AC MILAN IN BEATING THE BARCELONA OF MESSI 2-0, MAKING BARCELONA LOOK A VERY ORDINARY TEAM. OTHER GHANAIAN PLAYERS SCORED IN LEAGUE MATCHES IN EUROPE, AND ALL THIS AFTER THE GHANA BLACK STARS JUST CAME BACK FROM AFCON13 AT 4TH POSITION, NOT A DISGRACE THOUGH. I AGREE WITH KENNEDY TOTALLY, THAT GHANA DID NOT MAKE THE EXPECTED USE OF THE IN-FORM U-2O WORLD CUP WINNERS AS THEY SHOULD, AFTER THE COMPETITION. EVEN THE EXPERIENCED SELLAS TETTEH, THE COACH WHO WON THE U-20 WORLD CUP FOR GHANA, WAS KEPT AT A DISTANCE BY GFA UNTIL HE ENDED UP IN RWANDA! INGRATITUDE, OR WE ARE UNDER A SPELL! IN EVERY OTHER BIG FOOTBALL NATION, IT IS THE U-20 WINNERS OF 2009 WHO WOULD HAVE STRONGLY BOLSTERED THE PRESENT BLACK STARS SQUAD, BUT WHEN THEY SAW THAT EVEN THEIR COACH WAS NOT RECOGNIZED, THEY SCATTERED IN SURPRISE, CONFUSION AND DISAPPOINTMENT. IT IS THIS OUR REFUSAL IN OUR COUNTRY TO ACKNOWLEDGE QUALITY AND RECOGNIZE ACEHIEVEMENT AND HONOUR AND REWARD IT COMMENSURABLY, THAT IS BRINGING OUR GREAT NATION ABOUNDING IN FOOTBALL TALENTS ALSO DOWN. GLADSTONE AWAKO, DANIEL ADDO, ADIYIAH, AND MANY OTHERS WERE NOT GATHERED, ENCOURAGED, DIRECTED AND MOTIVATED. BEFORE COMING TO EUROPE, A BRAZLIAN JUNIOR SIDE VISITED GHANA AND PLAYED AGAISNT AACRA HEARTS OF OAK AND THE BLACK METEORS. IN THE WORLD CUP THAT FOLLOWED BARELY TWO AND A HALF YEARS LATER, I SAW THE MAJORITY OF THEM PLAYING FOR BRAZIL AND IN THE ONE THAT FOLLOWED AS WELL. WE GHANAIANS LOOK DOWN ON QUALITY AND FIND EXCUSES TO CHOOSE AND SELECT THE MEDIOCRE IN ALL DOMAINS OF OUR NATIONAL ENDEAVOUR, AND THIS IS THE RESULT: IN THE MIDST OF PLENTY, WE ARE NEEDFUL, AND IN THE MIDST OF TALENTS, WE ARE WANTING. MAY I ONLY ADD THAT HENCEFORTH WHEN WE GO TO INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONS, WE MUST NEVERTHELESS INCLUDE SOME VERY EXPERIENCED AND MATURED PLAYERS WITHIN THE AGE RANGES OF 28 - 33 AS WELL - ABOUT THREE SUCH PILLARS OF EXPEREINCE LIKE EVERY WISE FOOTBALL NATION IS DOING AND WINNING WITH THEM. STEPHEN APPIAH, FOR EXAMPLE, WOULD STILL HAVE PLAYED, IF IT WERE ANOTHER COUNTRY. WE CAUSE OUR GREAT AND EXPERIENCED FOOTBALL PLAYERS TO STOP PLAYING FOR US TOO EARLY, AND OUR RIVALS ARE VERY VERY HAPPY ABOUT THAT. THANK YOU, KENNEDY FOR THIS EXTREMELY GOOD AND TIMELY ARTICLE, EVEN AS A WORD TO THE WISE, IS ENOUGH!

  GFA MUST GO AND MUST GO... WHY IS NOBODY SAYING THE FUCKEN TRUTH... LIKE I SAID IF WE BRING ALL OUR PLAYERS AND I MEAN GREAT PLAYERS ALONG WITH LOCAL GOOD PLAYERS GHANA BOK STARS WILL BE GREAT MOVING FORWARD.... I REALLY LIKE THIS ARTICLE, FOR THE FACT THAT IT ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE TO A CERTAIN EXTENT.. IF MARIO BOLATELLI IS PLAYING FOR ITALY, AND ENGLAND CAN HAVE ALL THEIR VETERANS AND YOUNGER PLAYING TOGETHER THEN WHY CAN'T GHANA DO THE SAME.. THE REASON.IS BECAUSE THE PLAYERS DON'T WANT TO PLAY FOR A FUCKED UP CORRUPT ORGANIZATON.... SO CORRUPTED THAT STUPID GHANAINS DON'T SEE... HOW U GOING TO HIRE SOMEBODY THAT DON'T HAVE THE CREDENTIALS REQUIRED FOR THE JOB...????? IS SIMPLE AND LOGIC... WE ALL.APPLY FOR JOBS AND SEND IN OUR RESUMES.. U CAN EITHER GET HIRE BASED ON YOUR CREDENTIALS AND EXPERIENCES... AND THEN YOU GO THROUGH SCREENING AMONG OTHER QUALIFY CANDIDATES.... HOW ON HELL DID KWESI APPIAH GOT THIS JOB... GFA JUST HANDED THAT SHIT TO HIM... HE DIDN'T EVEN APPLY FOR IT.... AND NOW WE HAVE TO TEACH THIS GUY HOW TO COACH AND ALSO TAKE HIM TO GO STUDY COACHING CLASSES IN EUROPE...????? WHY ARE WE DOING THIS .. THE GOT IS NOT GOOD, SIMPLY GET RID OF HIM NOW.. BECAUSE IT WILL BE TOO LATE IF WE DON'T QUALIFY FOR THE WORLD CUP, AND THEN U GOING FIRE HIM THEN.. WHAT WILL BE THE FUCKEN POINT... WE HAVE LOYAL GHANAIAN EX PLAYERS THAT HAVE REALLY GOOD EXPERIENCES AND HAVE PLAYED ON A HIGHER LEVEL... THEY UNDERSTAND HOW TO WIN AND ALSO UNDERSTAND U CAN'T GO.TO A FUCKEN.TOURNAMENT WITH LOCALS PLAYERS AND ROCKIES... JESUS FUCKEN CHRIST.. U MIX VETERANS WITH THE YOUNG AND KEEP.GOING FORWARD.. U DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE OLD VETERANS WHO.HAS BEEN THERE DONE.IT.. KWASIA KWESI .. U FOOLISH PIG.... IS SOO ANNOYING WATCHING MY GREAT COUNTRY SUFFER CORRUPTION... NOW I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND WHY J.J RAWLINGS DID WHAT HE DID BACK THEN.. SET UP THAT COUP... CUS.IS.SAD WATCHING SOMETHING CRUMBLE EIGHT INFRINGE OF U AND U CAN'T DO.SHIT ABOUT IT... FOOLISH GHANAIANS MAN... HIRE ANOTHER GHANAIAN MARCEL DESAILLY... HE WILL.BE GOOD AND THE PLAYERS WILL HIRE HIM.. PLS...
