He is really not at a level where he should play for the BS. I am a huge fan of his but the truth must be told. Maybe, as a captain his dropping could have been handled in a better way to avoid getting him 'humiliated'. In football terms, he is quite average now and better players must be given the chance.

I think this is the proper sentiment. We all like Dede but in football a national team has to move on at some time. Remeber at the 2010 WC France and Italy did not make it out of the group..They both made the mistake of holding on to their old players who were in the WC final in 2006.

Master, let’s leave this matter alone. The coach has spoken and let’s leave it like that. Such comments by you could demoralise some of the players.

Wisdom is speaking. It's not about him playing or not invited but how u exit your leaders.
If you can't honor your heroes and exit them with respect then black stars have not future.

“In my experience watching the AFCON, for instance, Max Gradel, 37, was part of the Ivory Coast team. He played and made a difference".

Massa stop it. We all saw Dede also play the AFCON and he also "made a difference" - turning our group qualification into elimination. Even our opponents must be wondering why he was still being fielded.

The doesn't belong to retired players. It belongs to the nation and you people can't be toying with the nation's emotions like that. Set up your own team and get Dede to play as much as you want

Dede is still Captain of the Black Stars, I believe. If that is the case, the Coach should have included him in the squad, except if he was injured. He was selected for AFCON when he did not have a Club, so why now that he is active and scoring gaoals every werk? If the Coach wants to relieve him of the Captainship, he must be bold enough to Say So.

What is it some people don't understand? This coach, who once upon a time was fielding Dede when many of us saw the harm he was causing, left, reflected on the Black Stars team's performance and has now decided to drop Dede. He called Dede and informed him before announcing the list. Didn't we insult this coach and the last one when the BSs lost their matches because of this same Dede's unexplained introduction onto the field even when we were winning?

The great "Tornado" has spoken! And to add, Messi is 36, Luis Suarez is 37, and Ronaldo is 39. But none their respective countries is eager to throw them out even when they failed in past tournaments. In Ghana, it is always been about vilification in one form or another: Age, tribalism, and so forth. What an ungrateful nation!

Great analysis, if players are called to execute national assignment based on their current performances in their respective clubs,then what should prevent A.Dede from joining the B.S team. The way we exit our legends is quiet problematic. Bofon, that Italian gollie has been with Italy team even up to his old age. See, we never respect our icons in this small country called Ghana. At the slightest mistake, we throw them out like a tag rack or garbage. why? And so you see the country is gradually becoming not worth dieing for. Hmm, Tornado Stephen Appiah is right. Let's respect their contribution for once.

That’s all why waisted time commitment in on something that is not static? We all go thro changes man i don’t why Des guys feel bad about the coach decision…its not a matter of standing there and out the ball in the net call performance…can Dede run 120 minutes with 19 years old ??? Then take that position…

If I were the coach I will elect him as a coach intend to the team and learn to coach simply but the guy is not being reasonable and some foolish Ghanaians like Charles who ever are all talking nonsense why???

Ghana knows what Dede has done for Ghana since CAN 2008 till date. He's output is no more like before and if the coach is building a team for the future, let's all support him and not to be interfering with Dede's omission with treats from the Ayews of family meeting on the future of Dede. We know our respected Abedi is bigger than that and let's all support Ottu Addo to succeed

You're truly born a leader. Wise talk. Even Roger Milla @39 was playing in world cups. Some of us know this decision is based on public opinion.
