The stars did their best and the over 15 million people in the USA who watched the match agree that the goals came against the trend of play so let us not be mad st them. After all, it is a game meant to bring unity. Of all the countries in Africa, Ghana qualified to make our name be heard.
If Ghanaians will be mad, what about the people of Cameroon? Are they going to skin their players and their more seasoned coach alive?

IF THE BOYS ARE READY TO DO SOMETHING THEY HVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. THEN GH CAN BEAT GERMANY.
WHAT IS FEAR?......F(alse) E(vidence) A(ppearing) R(eal)!!!.
LINEUP:
442 IN DEFENDING.
SWITCH TO 433 COUNTER AFTER THE BALL GOES PAST THE GERMAN 3RD.
2/3 TOUCHES PER PLAYER(BREAK, CTRL/PASS). AS YOU GET TOWARDS THE GERMAN 18, 1 TOUCH ONLY!
DEFENDERS: DONT GIVE UP ON ANY PLAY N DONT BE COMPLACENT! TRUST AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER!
STAY WITH EACH PLAY/MARK THE GERMAN PLAYER UNTIL U HEAR A WHISTLE!
WE NEED SUMAILA AND MENSAH TO START. ALONG WITH OPARE AND AFFUL. I CANT STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THESE DEFENDERS NEED TO BE DISCIPLINED N PLAY WITH A SENSE OF URGENCY!
A)4,5..BE MINDFUL OF GERMAN AERIAL BALLS INTO THE GOALIE 6YD BOX AND GH 18. DEFEND THE BALL WITH HEADERS, NO SHOULDERS PLS....
B)THE RIGHT AND LEFTBACKS MUST KEEP THE GERMAN WINGERS AT BAY FROM THE GH 18, ESPECIALLY PODOLSKI. DRAW THEM FAR AWAY FROM THE 18. OPARE WILL HAVE TO BE VERY DISCIPLINED VS PODOLSKI.
A FEW DEROGATORY/TRASH TALKING IN PODOLSKI'S EAR WONT HURT.ASK KPB TO TEACH YOU SOME WORDS.
THE MORE DISCIPLINED YOU ARE, THE MORE FRUSTRATED PODOLSKI WILL BE.
WHEN HE GETS FRUSTRATED, HE TENDS TO PLAY RECKLESS. SO OPARE MUST BE DISCIPLINED AND PLAY WITH VIM!
C)4,5 MUST PLAY ZONE MARKING AND DONT TAKE UR GAZE OFF THE GERMANS STRIKERS(GOETZE AND MULLER). ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS ENTER THE GH 18 AND CONNECT WITH HEADERS! SO WATCH EVERY MOVE THEY MAKE!
D)THE GERMAN 7, 11 LIKE TO RUN BEHIND DEFENCES LIKE EGYPT SALAH. TO PREVENT THIS, U PLAY ZONE AND KEEP THE GERMANS SIDE BY SIDE OR ON THE INSIDE.
IF YOU LOSEGUARD AND THEY GET BEHIND YOU, ITS A WRAP!
EVERY GH PLAYER MUST MOVE/POSITION THEMSELVES WITHOUT THE BALL. NO PLAYER MUST STAND IDLE. THIS IS VERY CRITICAL. IF YOU FAIL TO MOVE, U ARE PUTTING THE TEAM IN JEOPARDY!
TO DEFEND, WIN BALL POSSESSION AND CONTAIN GERMANY WATCH GERMANY VS CHILE..MAY 03, 2014
TO SCORE AGAINST GERMANY WATCH GERMANY VS. CAMEROON FRIENDLY
ADAMS.
OPARE, SUMAILA, MENSAH, AFFUL

I don't understand why he was so upset as to insult your person when all you were doing was consoling us.

Yammin must be fired, afterall he dared Mahama to fire him, if he is man enough. So long as Yammin continues to make the stars an NDC property, people will jubilate anytime they lose a match, now and untill Yammin is booted out of office.

We are not in the flagstaff house but we have information on whatever is going on in the cabinet though Mahama and his idiotic clique wants to blindfold Ghanaians with excuses.
Mahama and his team are getting necessary support from Ghanaians and that they will face the rage of Ghanaians if they fail to enhance the lives of the people.

I agree with Abeiku and Kwasi Pratt i think just one person changing his or her name bashing Kwasi Pratt with postings on this forum we are all angry about the defeat to the US it could have been avoided by fielding both Kevin and Essien. What nonsense is that benching such experienced players during a tough match is absolute stupidity. If players had a problem with selection what does that tell anyone. Akwasi Appiah gave USA the game for reason or reasons best known to him. The Serbian ex BS coach will be laughing at us, and probabbly call AA nuts. We lost the match from the bench he should be ready to face the wrath of Ghanaians if we get kicked out i am very angry and gets more angry the more i think about AA's stupidity. In 2010 Kevin scored our first goal against the US in like 10 minutes into the game a white man was our coach what does this say about the black man, Akwasi has disgraced every black man on earth that we are not as smart and competent as the whiteman, what a shame.

These were legitimate concerns from the players. The money is not coming from Government coffers but rather from the huge colossal sum of money that FIFA donated to all participating teams.
Why is there always confusion about money each time with the African teams?
The South American countries are developing countries too, but we hear less about monetary issues.
For instance, why is the GFA Chairman trailing the team all the way from training camp to Brazil?
Yes, he could visit and watch a match or two, but to be with the team through out the preparation does not make sense to me.
That brings about and raises issues of corrupt practices even if they were non-existant

It is irresponsible for any Ghanaian (and for that matter, Kwesi Pratt) to demand that the Black Stars qualify or be crucified. First of all, there is nothing special about Ghana or Ghana soccer for which Ghana must prevail over other countries by all means. Secondly, it is foolhardiness for an analyst to conclude that Ghana will surely beat Germany going by current formguide. The fact is, Germany are in a dream form that is comparable to their 1974 form and logically, the Stars have little chance to defeat them next Saturday.
One important requirement in every sports is good sportsmanship and show of goodwill even in defeat. Nobody therefore has any pound of flesh to demand from the team or the coach or the GFA if they fail to qualify.

Many Ghanaians are praying that they lose and come home so that the NDC cannot use them to steal more state funds.

If he was a seasoned journalist he or his representative will be there to report facts and figures to Ghanaians. these guys sit on their bottoms all day and call themselves journalist because the have access to mass media networks. They should get into the places of the action and give Ghanaians decent journalism. they are soccer players doing their best for their country. if any other Ghanaian was taken to task the way we do our sportsmen, Ghana would be a paradise by now.

Black Stars do have all the necessary tools to face any team in Brazil on going Fifa world cup but we let our mouth and pride lead the way before we even start games. Wrong attitude, lets show the world how to finish games then talk about it later to eliminate excuses. Set example against Germany match. Go STARS!!!
For they've longed been eliminated.
The Black Stars,were awesome against the USA.
All they need to do is blend flair with steely determination ;))
Rally round the flag and support the stars.
This headless Kwasi Pratt, talk sensible.
The stars did their best and the over 15 million people in the USA who watched the match agree that the goals came against the trend of play so let us not be mad st them. After all, it is a game meant to bring unity. Of all t ...

LET RAWLINGS AND MAHAMA DEAL WITH THEM AND PROVIDE ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE PEOPLE.

So long as the Kumasi feels disenfranchised, some of its residents will continue to act this way. It is sad that any group would jubilate over this defeat no matter their political colour. Shame on those who jubilated. Having ...

Mahama should have rebuked Yamin for his utterances about which party members will be airlifted free to Brazil.We need to put aside our political differences during such times. Well, Perhaps Mahama condoned what Yamin said.
MAHAMA CAN'T DO NOTHING BEST PERIOD

It takes an extremely lucky person to win elections anywhere in the world. It is more of lucky to take a mourning vice to beat an alleged Candidate known for his prowess and organizing conflicts. To beat such a man in a court ...

THEY CAN GO TO COURT IF THEY LOOS
Who cares if Ghana loses. The stars will only face the wrath of NDC supporters. They are the one funded to Brazil. We do not care a hoot if Ghana is kicked out.Infact we pray Ghana is kicked out

INDEED WE PRAY GHANA IS KICKED OUT, THE PLAYERS WOULD NOT KILL THEMSELVES FOR GHANA WHEN THEY KNOW THE SUPPORTERS SENT TO BRAZIL ARE NOT THE TRUE REPRESENTATION TO WASTE STATE FUNDS.
WHY IS ALWAYS CURRUPTION EVERYWHERE IN GHANA NOW AND FAR TO THE BLACK STARS IN BRAZIL.
So Kwesi Pratt talks about the economy, politics, sanitation, etc, and now football(soccer). Jack of all trades and master of none!!!
Money... Poor technical decisions and stupidity could make us come home early...
Pratt spoke in parables, thus;
We charge the President and his ministers and appointees to ensure that Ghana comes out of the maggot infested woods or face the wrath of Ghanaians.

Yes, they will have questions to answer if they are unable to get to the rounds of 16.
KWASI WILL BE BLAMED IF ANYONE SUFFERS A PHYSICAL INJURY FOR LOSING A FOOTBALL GAME. AFTER THAT THERE WILL BE NO BLACK STARS BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL BE AFRAID TO PLAY OR COACH THE NATIONAL TEAM. KWASI PRATT IS VERY STUPID INDEED.
OF CAUSE PRATT HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRAT.
