Whichever way you may see this, the young lad has presented a very mature reason for his "temporary" stay away from the team. I have always contended that he is part of a glorious future of the team. I am happy all is not completely lost.Good luck Jordan, and come back much stronger and as our Number One Striker.

When they are calling players from leagues that you GPS to locate whose fitness is not sure I do not blame you who want to go through life with Uncertainty. Come back when you are at the top of your game. Now the fools in GFA who wanted pay your back for the sins of your fathers would have no one push around.

Let's watch out for these decisions rescinded just before Brazil 2014. We are watching you Boatengs, Essiens and Ayews

Is the Player above the Coach or vice versa. GFA has to step up and take a tough stance by releasing these Ayews because for discipline to remain in the Team all players must adhere to the Coach's decision. Teams win tournaments and go far no individuals. Senegal 92 had some of the best Stars but we came up short and so is the squad Stephen Appiah Captained.

So what is wrong with what he said? Or you cant read and understand simple english? He says he is taking time off to improve his performance and will return later does that call for insults?

If, as you say, selection is based on current form, then Ayew is even more justified to take this stance, because at the time that he was in top form at Club when he was abandoned by Kwasi Appiah for other players. It only means that he has to work hard to be better than his current best form. Incidentally, Kwasi Appiah and others, including Polo, had made references in the past to Jordan being still young or introduced to the Black Stars prematurely. So, please, leave the boy alone to focus on building his career.

Yes, we ve got Atsu, Wakaso and co. But that is the problem if u decide to run before you can properly walk, u stumble! I believe no one person, group of persons or an organisation is above the interest of the whole nation. Relating this to the Blackstars, neither the GFA, the Coach nor any of the Players interest is above that of the naations. In a Nation of over 25Million ppls, the best should be called at all times to represent the country. There can be nothin like a permanent or secure Position in the blackstars since there are uncountable number of footballers(known n unknown) competing for a place in a team of 22. Lets call up the best we have at all times without favour/history. =ne Ghana, one ppl. Cheers!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if he can do that at his current club?. The national team is for all Ghanaian footballers and not those playing outsider.

We can snub them from the national team.We should stop this kind of players behaviour.

YOUR UNDERSTANDING IS FAR, CAN YOU UNDERSTAND SIMPLE ENGLISH. LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING. JORDAN IS SAYING THAT, ONCE THE BLACK STARS MANAGEMENT HAD COME OUT TO DROP HIM, IT MEANS HE IS NOT GOOD COMPARE TO THE PLAYERS SELECTED FOR THE AFCON, SO HE IS DECIDING TO TRAIN HARD WITH HIS CLUB WHO IS TAKING CARE OF HIM, SO HE CAN COME BACK WITH MORE HIGHER LEVEL FOR WHICH THE BLACK STARS MIGHT NOT DROP HIM IN THE NEAR FUTURE. MY BROTHER YOUR UNDERSTANDING IS TOO FAR.

if you don't secure then you can not have it more secured. So Jordan is right to say, he wants to train hard and come back to be more secured in his position. What you should know is that all players in the black stars want to train hard and get the chance to be number one in the position they are call on to the black stars. Ihope you will think well now.

This is nothing new. Great players have been overlooked on several occasions all for not having team discipline. Talk about Eric Cantona, Nikolas Anelka, Ahmed Mido, Given Singuluma, Bend Schuster, Ruud Gullit, Van Nistelroy, Roy Keane, Fernando Morientes, Raul Gonzalez have all been dropped before in their career. It is all up to the selected players to pull their weight.

Where in the World do players decide when to join the national team? This is a sign of disrespect for the coach and Ghana. They want to be begged to return Whea. No ones position is guaranteed in the Black Stars. Its up and down. You want to dictate to the Ghana and destroy the team just like your father did some time ago.

When a local coach was being considered many said the local coach cannot handle the ego of the players.
Now the coach is instilling discipline and the same people are shouting.
The coach should maintain discipline
and not cowered by these two stubborn players. Yes no one is an automatic player in the team. Even Kwarasey we thought was no 1 was destooled recently. Who knows the next excellent player to show up. Your positioned is never guaranteed and you can retire forever. Ghana will not die without you.

This is the case where he has been given enormous room ,He axes the Ayew brothers and prefers other players to these two who are in top flight for club. Now he should be ready to dance to his own tune. Followed by the FA. And then insisting Asamoah Gyan is the best striker in the country with his laughable baby jet moves.

Their father, Abedi, is the one engineering all this. Abedi`s sense of entitlement is his worst enemy and I feel sad he`s teaching and transfering it to his sons. He never played at the World Cup due to that during his hey-days but its clear he has learnt no lesson to teach his children. They want to rule forgetting they aren`t born rulers but entertainers.Ghana was before the Ayews and will be without them.
