Dr. Coach Akwasi Appiah, the only honorary doctor at the 2014 world cup is the illiterate of them all. A coach who cannot even write his name on a paper and has no classmates can never ever be tactical.

This USA match was an ideal opportunity for us to secure a good position in this so called "Group of Death" and we made a complete mess of it. Credit to our boys though, I thought they did extremely well to calm the storm after Clint Dempsey's first minute goal as I felt it was going to turn into a crazy match. However, our defending off the set piece is shocking to say the least and it is what teams like Germany and Portugal will target in our up and coming matches. I really don't like commenting badly about our coaches but... Appiah did not really have a game plan and even if he did... he didn't communicate it well enough to the players to execute on the pitch. We just kept mindlessly booting the ball forward hoping the likes of Gyan and Atsu (an extremely promising player may I add) would perform some kind of miracle for us in the final third. We barely gave Andre Ayew any opportunities to attack that left hand side and the one time we did and he linked up with Gyan we scored a goal in the 86th minute. We're incredible athletes. We're quick and we're strong. However the overall decision making in this game was poor to say the least a factor which demonstrates the sheer lack of coaching ability from Appiah who frankly, should have communicated tactics to the team better. Muntari as ever was solid in CM but he had no one to really back him. As much as I love Michael Essien he looked off the pace when he came on the pitch and KPB was just extremely wasteful in possession and tried to take the glory for himself taking silly long range shots. If it was looking difficult to escape this group before... the task is now proving to be equivalent to climbing Mt Everest! Many Europeans pundits and players alike frequently bastardise African football due to the severe lack of development and it showed last night, it was all brawn and no brains. I love our team so much, but we need to use our heads more and our coach needs to stick to a solid base/game plan to make us well organised like the Americans were last night.
Reports out of our team camp in Brazil suggests that KVP and Essien have clashed and fallen out of favour with Appiah hence their omission from the side.
We made it so easy for them to play. Our central midfielders did not push the tempo of the game, it was slow and extremely easy to anticipate. Atsu is talented but wasted chances. We just played the long ball forward, despite not having a big man up front to hold the ball up... Because the pace of the game was so slow, the Americans were able to defend against most of our attacks for the majority of the game. We could hardly get our danger man Gyan into the game. The painful thing is these issues are so easy to rectify, I just wish our manager could effectively get the message across to the players.
Asamoah should not be playing left back, (although he is hailed for his versatility) he should be CM and I feel Ghana's best formation would be a 4-3-3 with a Midfield and Attacking combination of Gyan, A.Ayew, and Atsu as our front three with Essien, Muntari and KPB in the Midfield. Fortified with an EXPERIENCED defensive combination.
We have so much potential as a team we showed that in South Africa 4 years ago. The stereotype that exists within the minds of Europe and most of the world is that African teams are generally undisciplined and lack the technical skill to be effective in competitions. We're written off and criticised for our lack of decision making etc and from what I saw from Appiah's team the other day they are right. We're too weak off set pieces and dead ball situations. This failure directly leads into the debate surrounding the status of black coaches in West African football being branded as useless. The odds for us to get out of this group are now astronomical. I still believe we'll do something though. Actually belief is the wrong word... more HOPE than anything else.

How is it a coach fault when players waste so many chances and fail to concentrate at the back? I can bet that the Germans and Portuguese will just seat deep, let us have the ball knowing that we will waste the chances and then exploit our lack of concentration at the back.
At this level concentration, killer instinct, respect for spaces, and attention to details and transitions are more important than even the football skills. We have the skills but lack the rest...This cannot be solved overnight or by colonial mentality. Football thinking is not exclusive to foreigners or white people. We have enough Ghanaians who can think but would our players listen, curb their instinctive desire to get the ball instead of minding the spaces and be disciplined? And as a country we need to invest in the training of real strikers....We seem to be only capable of producing midfielders or players who want to play in midfield. Games at the top level are usually won at the back and in front not in midfield.

Even your white coaches can commit mistakes. What kind of record are you talking about? Beating America twice or what? American squad is not the same as previously. They have improved tremendously. In one of the previous tournament in which we won 2-1 we had a dubious penalty otherwise the scores would have been a draw. Again everyone knows the group is tough. The players are also not the same. To me the players should concentrate all the time if they don't then you should blame them but not the coach. Essien and Boateng were playing when they scored the second goal. We have had a lot of difficulties getting a left full back so it makes sense playing kwadwo Asamoah in that position especially when we have Dede, Wakaso, Mutari. Rabiu, Atsu etc. as midfielders.
Kwadwo plays number ten but he hardly scores and therefore, it makes sense to use him to strengthen the defence.
It is our star players who keep disappointing us. It is not about a white or a black coach. Egypt and south Africa had a white coach but did not qualify.
Ghana to me has average players but no playmaker or super star.

You also don't learn after being insulted so much you have come back with your bucket mouth to make noise again. Why don't you go and solve your impotence problems. Huh Raymond Yeboah.

YOU'VE SAID IT. BUT YOU SHOULD BE A LITTLE POLITE. GHANA IS NOT FOR YOU. THAT IS NOT THE END OF THE STARS IF THEY DON'T QUALIFY.

Dr. Coach Akwasi Appiah, the only honorary doctor at the 2014 world cup is the illiterate of them all. A coach who cannot even write his name on a paper and has no classmates can never ever be tactical.
This USA match was an ideal opportunity for us to secure a good position in this so called "Group of Death" and we made a complete mess of it. Credit to our boys though, I thought they did extremely well to calm the storm aft ...

Much as you have a good point against the tactical approach of the coach should not make you rejoice over our failure at this point. The black stars will qualify at all cost.

Give Kwasi Appiah a breathing space. Have you forgotten Spain were beaten as well.
All his comments are borne out of hatred.Spain has one of the best defence in the world but they lost.
Hey what are you talking about? and who care what happened to Spain? Fools like you always compare, be wise and look up to the best and not the poor. What is bad is bad
What else do you expect a coach to do?,to add to the players on the field?Even Morinho is beaten.Ask Ferguson he will tell you stories.The players are blaming themselves and are ready to get themselves out of the mess.The def ...

Spot on! Opportunistic and bad luck characters following the team. Vice president Amissah Arthur is one of such characters.
Berma you are right. bad selection kills us. no way ghana can advance from this group.
Your vindication? Who cares. We love our team, our country and right now we are in pain and you want to talk about how sweet you vindication is? Are you kidding me? You are a selfish bastard!!
I think you are an asshole being born prematurely by a mentally retarded parents who do not qualify for welfare or food stamps (IF ANY) in Ghana.
Please learn how to write good English and stop that nonsense. We say defense and not "defends"
