    Why play badu instead of the more physical and agressive afriyie acquah.

  • DR TRUTH 7 years ago

    WHY WOULD GRANT PICK OFF FORM 2ND DIVISION PLAYERS LIKE ATSU & JORDAN WHO ARE BENCH WARMERS/NOT REGULAR TOO AND LEAVE OUT INFORM TOP DIVISION & EUROPA LEAGUE PLAYERS LIKE FRANK ACHEAMPONG & EBEN ASSIFUAH?

  • Kwame Adu Gyamfi 7 years ago

    Jordan and Atsu are starters for their club. And yes The Championship is second division but it is still one of the most physical and competitive leagues in the world.

  • anokwale 7 years ago

    I agree that The Championship is much tougher than most people think. It is probably as good as Serie A. Maybe a touch better. I think Atsu sort of has to start based on the fact that Atsu might have one of his great perfo ...

    Always you people have an opinion. No wonder Abraham Lincoln one's said the "most cheapest commodity is opinion" Go and select your squard err.

  • Victor Hugo 7 years ago

    Don't misquote Abraham Lincoln. He will never say "most cheapest" which is wrong.Rather " the cheapest commodity is opinion" Some of you guys on Ghanaweb deserve lashes for misleading your readership.

  • Nii Lantey the destroyer of Black Sta 7 years ago

    Jordan cant score but wouldnt release the ball for another to, Frank Acheampong who releases and can score is far better, Afriyie Acqua is stronger than Agyemang Badu, Esifua is forceful than Atsu

    Why sen? U be "the" coach?
    Why focus in things we do not have control over?
    Lol

  • Mc 7 years ago

    You just dont know what you talking about.

    how many goals has Afriyie Acquah scored for the nation?

    have you ever seen Afriyie Acquah powered shots from the centre right into the angle before?

    consider your analysis.

  • Slimzay*The Unshakeable* 7 years ago

    Can Afrie play offensive midfield more effectively than Badu? Have you asked yourself that question?

    Why Jordan? The guy is too weak and useless

  • Sammy the Sheriff 7 years ago

    Say that again. Maybe his sagging is needed or this useless player should not be in the team. He might even score a goal with assist from his brother but he is not a Blackstars material.

    With this lineup, who is the creati ...

  • anokwale 7 years ago

    This is the reality. There is pressure to start Jordan so for the sake of chemistry with his brother they keep starting him. If we are not winning Jordan will be the first man out and we will end up with Tetteh or Assifuah ...

    The match will be very tough but Ghana will win by a goal from unexpected person.

  • Branaboy 7 years ago

    I don't know why we keep playing Jordan Ayew and Atsu upfromt. Jordan is not a natural goal scorer and is not strong enough to play as the "up" striker. Atsu is one dimensional, defenders have figured him out that is why he n ...

    He has to release the balls quick and fire unexpectedly many times from the left. Atsu should provide air balls to Dede and Ghana will win.

    Ghana will lose the game but one of the Ayew's will score. Then Avram Grant will be shown the door.

    Can you pls leave Grant in Egypt for us? Or he should not come back to Ghana. How on earth can you play Dede in 90min? Look at his subs, unbelievable. Schlupp for Partey. What was he thinking of?

  • Johnny 7 years ago

    No effective substitution. We needed goals so badly, and the coach could not see that? Can't groom any decent striker after being in charge this long? Same Jordan, Jordan, Jordan!!
