He was given the benefit of doubt when he failed woefully at AFCON 2013. His player call-ups and selection are all faulty; he is clueless when the going gets tough like in the US game, when the best he thought he could do was bring on a certain equally useless and clueless Adomah, when we actually needed a better and 'real footballer' on the pitch, his apparent inferiority complex or is it jealousy when it comes to dealing with the better-paid senior players.
All these are reasons he should honourably step aside. By the way, is he not ashamed?

The writer says he is a slow learner and points to the team's performance after the US game; hmm, so Appiah went to the WC to learn? What were the friendly matches for? He was the only coach who did not even know his first 11; what about his substitutions? Opare was clearly out of sorts in that match and Afful could have come on at half time, but our Mumu coach alone did not see what even amateurs could clearly see, he rather kept Opare and brought on the ubiquitous imposter, Adomah, to finally confirm his cluelessness.

Why was the GFA investigated during the tenure of the late Good President Mills and it became an issue?
There have always been smokes of corruption activities around the FA. That is why the good professor ordered investigations to be conducted into their activities. He didn't succeed because he was still in post when the investigations were conducted and he influenced the investigation a lot. Let's wake up ooooo or will be tooooooo late to handle! Why do we allow weeds to overgrow our crops? Don't we know that the more we leave it; the more it destroys the good crops. The coach and the FA boss must proceed on indefinite leave immediately to allow for proper and fair investigations to be conducted just like Honourable Betty-Mould Idrisu did.

Afcon he failed, WC is also failed. How long do you expect us to wait before he gets it right?For 10 months I watched my team (Man Utd)struggle because we had a clueless coach in David Moyes. Everyone knew he was struggling within the 1st month but they wanted to give him time to prove himself. in that time we gave him, he managed to take the Premier Leagues champions to 7th place. Appiah is doing the same, before we had him we were ranked in the top 20 now we're in the 30s and we will continue to slip as long as he is in charge. This shows he's done more harm than good to the national team, all he's done is taken us backwards. People need to accept the fact that no matter how much time you give a man, he will never change. Kwasia Appiah is one of them, he doesn't have it in him. You send him on a training course at Man City and we have not seen how he has benefited from it. His mistakes from Afcon were carried to the WC. He needs to go
asap! If he cares for Ghana then he should do the rightful thing and resign. Are we waiting for him to fail at his 3rd successive tournament?

1. Just before competition started, playing against Montenegro, and Holland - conceded goals within first ten minutes. Did not correct this. Fast forward to our world cup first match, conceded goal in less than a minute.
2. Lost to USA in dying minutes from set play (corner kick). He could not correct this. Fast forward conceded another in dying minutes from set play to draw with Germany. Then lost to Portugal in dying minutes.
This guy would never learn. He did his best (thank you), but failed. It is time for him to move on, or be sacked!

His team selection (and the reasons he gave: waiting for the opposition to get tired before bringing on the experience players), his substitutions: who he took out and who he brought on, and how long it took him to make changes, etc???? Can you imagine the man after so many years in chanrge, still does not know his starting 11 or close to it? Do you know what he told the world his reason for dropping Kwarasey for Dauda? "height" he said. Go figure. The ESPN crew was laughing heartedly at his cluelessness.
There is everything wrong with Akwasi Appiah as far as coaching is concerned, and no Ghanaian who has the interest of the nation at heart should advocate for Appiah's continued presence as a coach.

DISAGREE: Even though I've been a big fan of AA, lets call a spade a spade.
When AA was given the job,he was given 2 goals in order to continue as coach:
Goal # 1: He was asked to take the mighty black stars to the final of CAN 2013, he failed misrably.
Goal # 2: He was tasked to get the black stars to the semi-final 2014 world cup. He failed miserably. He was handed a team that reached the quarter final of the last world cup. A team with 2-3 quality players at every position, yet he has failed to utilize them properly. In the qualifiers all the teams were not that strong apart from zambia. Egypt top their group after playing all these weak teams. Go back and look at the roaster of all the world cup teams and tell me which team took only 6 defenders to the world cup. Why take all these midfielders when you know you are not going to use them. In the world cup you use your players where they will benefit the team most.
It's obvious, AA can't do any better. His selection has been poor, tactics has been poor and management of our egoistic players has been poor. We need a world class manager to coach and manage our world class players.
How did he think he could win the african cup of nations with the likes of emmanuel lamptey and wakaso. When is he going to build a team. He keeps saying he wants to build a team. He said that after CAN 2013 and we allowed him to continue.Enough is enough. AA please resign and lets all move on. We love you but we love our blacks stars more. Adios AA

It would be the most mistake for FA to sack AA , to my opinion he has not done anything wrong ,look at the kind of recruitment he did, no white coach can do that. The blame should go to some of the players for their rudeness ...

YOU SEE THE DANGER IS THAT HE THINKS HE CAN PUT TOGETHER SOME NAIVE SQUAD HE CAN LORD OVER. WE NEED A BRILLIANT GHANAIAN MANAGER AA IS A COLTS COACH SIMPLY PUT.

Did we all not see his work? His team selection (and the reasons he gave: waiting for the opposition to get tired before bringing on the experience players), his substitutions: who he took out and who he brought on, and how l ...

Enough said.
It surprises me when Ghanainas think they have a world class team.
We should stop dreaming. These players are just average players. No Suraz, Messy, Ronaldo, Abedi pele,stephen Appiah in the team. They are just average playe ...

YOU ARE RIGHT. THE REASON FOR A HIGH QUALITY COACH. LOOK AT THE AMERICAN COACH WHO MADE A GOOD TEAM FROM UNKNOWN PLAYERS AND THE COSTA RICA SOCCER TEAM
It is good you took all factors into consideration.
Ghanaians have average players but think they are better than all teams in the world. We expect so much from the coach and team yet we have average players. Mention any sup ...

If he wasn't able to do it before, now that it's worse how would he be able to do it better? He is definitely not part of the solution! Wasn't he there when all these were occurring? Not once have I heard something along the ...

WE HAVE INVESTED A LOT IN HIM AND WHAT DID HE ACHIEVED? DESTROYED THE BLACK STARS. JUST ASK YOURSELF WHAT PLAYERS IS HE GOING TO CALL TO THE BS; MPONG, A. SOLOMON, AWAL, ADOMAH, AFFUL, OPARE AND TEACH THEM WHAT? LET ME ASSURE ...
