Baby Jet scored 70+ goals in just 2 seasons in the Emirates? Some cheap league like that! Come back to the Premiership, and ASA will be lucky to get 20 in 2 seasons.

What? He already receives over $200,000 a week. What is mouth watering about $165,000? And if he is making his money at UAE, who cares about premier league? Think of yourselves

Moreover it is an insult for him to come there for that offer when the injured guy was making £19 million a year?

I think Gyan should think twice before taking any offer from EPL club.
money wise he is better off with a tax free 200000 dollars a week to £16500 of which 50% will go the uk tax man's packet. so Gyan will end up getting l ...

I think Gyan should think twice before taking any offer from EPL club.
money wise he is better off with a tax free 200000 dollars a week to £16500 of which 50% will go the uk tax man's packet. so Gyan will end up getting less than £80000 after tax in the uk.
and dont forget the cost of living in London too which is one of the highest in the world.
so my advice to Gyan is, please please please stay where you are now and good money because you have nothing to prove to any one, you are already a world class player on both international and club levels.

Leave 200,000 a week at a place he scores every week, with even 10,000 able to pay your rent and everything for a month, and go to West what?
Even if West Ham will give him 1 million a month, he will not go. Do you think he is a fool?

I think there are 25 million PHDs in Ghana.

YOU GUYS ARE FUNNY. WHY DO YOU ALWAYS INSIST THAT GYAN SHOULD BE PLAYING IN EUROPE? ARE THE EUROPEANS READY TO BEAT THE OFFER OF HIS CURRENT CLUB? EVEN IF THEY ABLE TO DOUBLE THE WAGES OF GAN`S CURRENT WAGES, HOW MUCH OF THIS COMES TO GYAN AS NET? THESE GUYS IN EUROPE APPEAR TO OFFER SO MUCH ON FACE VALUE BUT EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO THE HOST COUNTRIES BY WAY OF TAXES.
AS LONG AS THE WAGE IS FATTER GO FOR IT ASAMOAH.
DO NOT LISTEN THESE BRAINWASHED GUYS WHO THINK THE WORLD BEGINS AND END WITH EUROPE. IF THE EUROPEANS TABLE A BIGGER OF WHY NOT. I MIGHT CONSIDER IT BUT FOR NOW STAY PUT, MR GYAN

If you have lived in london and have gone through all the hardships you will understand him.
In the UAE league, he has discovered more ways of scoring. See the reflection in our worldcup qualifiers.

Baby Jet has nothing to prove. His pedigree is proof in itself. Don't forget he played for Sunderland and was their talismanic goal poacher in the premier league of England, He keeps scoring goals at all levels - from club to international matches. Need I say more? Playing in Al Ain is his choice. It works well for him. The people love him and pay him well. A Gyan will captain Black Stars to FIFA 2014 in Brazil. You would have a chance to respect him or zip it up!

Stay where you are I did not understand you when you made that change but its better for you to be cherished and paid well than for you to go there and be intentionally made a flop. Give them happiness over there and make your money.This people will not even give you anything even if you are the best in the world. When Essien emerge on the football stage he was the best now in defensive midfield FIFA could call its best midfielders and not even include Essien because of his colour. but call some players bi as the best. Masa stay there and chop your dough. But becareful you dont fall to any of victim to any of their ploys out there.

Not all money be money. I will not leave 200 thousand dollars a week in the Arab world and go for 400 thousand in Europe, lai lai. I will not make that mistake.

There are numerous reasons to what I just said. One is, you score almost every week in the league that people call "atakpa" league. In the Arab world, you can use 10 thousand dollars for the whole month, with change left sef.

West Ham? My foot. If you don't score any goal there in two matches, come and see, you will smell shito and koobi.

Even if West Ham will give me 1 million a week, I no go take am. I go take 200 thousand in the Emirates where I can spend 5,000 on rent and all other expenses a month.

As captain for the Black Stars, Gyan's priority must be where to position himself to always fit and available for national duty.
A good player does not need a so-called big league to keep himself in shape. Rather, he needs opportunity to be playing week after week to keep his shape. Playing in a so-called big league could even drain a good player and make him unavailable for national duty as a result of injury. This is the advantage Asamoah Gyan is gaining in UAE. He is enjoying himself without getting drained and thus he is always available for national duty and he is being well paid on-top. I don't expect him to leave UAE that easily because a top player in the EPL is vulnerable to wicked tackles during play and this could end his career prematurely since he is not a young man.
