let them come clean on their shaddy deals. they have spoiled the 'boys' with money. change the team. pick new ones and add to committed old ones Dede,Wakassu.They don't show gratitude for what Ghana Football has done for them, only selfishness! How could you get good EU club deals without Black Stars appearance?

Stop being hypocritical on one's issue. Didn't you attend school in Ghana? Would you admit the Ghana Education gave you a platform of what you are today? What have you done for the country upon all the education offered to you by the country that these players haven't done even much more fir the country?

Now, picking new players you mentioned. Have you realized the time we are in now? How many major tournaments are on boad the country is involved in? Do you really think this is a good time to throw every plan away and begin afresh? Our next match is against Egypt. A nation that knows us very well in this sport, is hungry to stop us from advancing, and also looking forward for a revenge, do you think your plan by taking out all the players, except the few you mentioned, and employ a different team, will help us advance?

We needcto think of all the obstacles before be do anything. Salam is right on money. The two head authorities need to come into agreement and work well together.

The coach should be given free hand to manage and win games. The "too Known" should shut and let the man di his work.

well said Mr. Salam. Grant identified game with Rwanda as game to use to prepare for Uganda yet with only a few days to the game sports minister and so called football experts in Ghana believe trying out style of play,starting team for Uganda, etc is not important because we have already qualified for AFCON and the game is not important? so why turn on Grant for? bs are ambassadors for the country yet sports minister shows no respect, no empathy and no encouragement, no better communication with, no working with but ordering everyone about and you still want to start on Grant?ministry and gfa impasse is the cause of bs woe and bad local coaches who cannot just train strikers in how many years. Buckahard Ziese if I remember correctly turned sam Johnson into a striker. Look at Nigeria they are blessed with strikers for so long now. Is this not same Nigeria where George alahassan, joe tex frimpong, George gomashie, kwesi owusu,olabode Williams use to top goalscoring charts at? poor local coaches where every Ghana talent is a midfielder or left back

this is an unreasonable cheap talk from a management member of the Black Stars.Does this man knows his job? If as a management member you know that there is a rift between the two captains, what do you have to do,sit there and expect the public to have a chat with them? It sounds like He is telling the public to sit the two captains down and settle the problem.

The main problem is that Ghana is bankrupt, there is no money. The new sports minister is a 'rubber stamp' for Mahama.
He does not care about the future of this country. Football has really done a lot for this country. It has produced many young real millionaires who bring lots of hard currency to help the economy. It has also, (like Brazil, Cameroon, etc.) put Ghana on the world map attracting tourist, it also has given confidence to the people with smiles on their faces.
This is another good reason why we need change of gov.

Sensible talk by Abdul Salam.
Problem is not Grant but Nii lLante refusing to be a leader. There is more to leadership than what Nil thinks. Wise up Nii.

I couldn't agree more with you, Abdul. Well said and thank you. If the ongoing feud between the Minister of Sports and GFA is not resolved before the Egypt match next month, we might regret the result of that game.

I think the reason why Grant is being critiqued is simple. He has not come up with any striker to replace Gyan and he has been scared to try someone new in a game that counts. He defaults to Jordan all the time. When he gave Kwesi Appiah a chance at the 2015 AFCON it worked. I think his status quo style is what is frustrating some people.

The Black Stars of Ghana had a formidable team, as individuals, during the Abedi Peli and Tony Yeboah era, but lack of unity in the team that time led us no where, not even winning the AFCON.

Some ghanaians do not understand the game SOCCER.
Man U lost 4 : 0 to Chris, does it mean Mouri should be sacked?

"Unrest" between the two captains?Which unrest? Very poor journalistic standard.Even the word "rivalry' would have been better.
