Please do not mind idiots like Felix Aboagye they will say anything to get attention if we want a cohesion and a new beginning all the players who went to Brazil should have been dropped start with Gyan.

Honestly speaking, the 3 goalies should never include Fatau because his height has always been a problem and he can't jump like other short goalies. His self confidence is also very low.

Every foreign Ghanaian born player has a problem with this Gfa. So when will nyantakyi take blame for his primitive ways of doing things and either resign or be shot in the head! Dickoh, owusu abeyie, kpb, kwarasay, dede and jordan,...they have all had issues with the fa at one point or the other. Why unasked? BRIBE before selection.

We have players like Gyan who doesn't speak Arabic but plays in a club where everything is done in Arabic and yet he is doing great.We have Ghanaians playing in Germany, Sweden, Russia, France, U.k who do.not speak the native language and yet don't use that as an excuse. Kwarasey needs to understand that pointing fingers at others won't help him.Keeping the ball out of his net is his job and the ball doesn't speak Twi or Ewe.

How would you feel if you were dropped few minutes before a game because your team mates claimed they struggling to communicate with you due to language barrier. Is that not discrimination?

I am yet to see any coach who will take out his star player or keeper because team mates couldn't communicate with him.Kwarasey not only disappointed me at Brazil with his poor performance but his failure to accept responsibility for his own performance stinks of high insecurity and immaturity.Gyan,Kasa,Dede,Afful,Atsu and Badu have all accepted that their efforts at Brazil was inadequate and are determined to make amends to restore fans' confidence and soothe their disappointment..Kwarasey on the other hand is blaming the keepers coach for his poor performance and his team mates for his substitution.When is Kwarasey going to understand that it was his goalkeeping skills and not his inability to speak Twi or Ga that did him in.I think it is time to move on without him.

He never blamed the keepers' coach for his poor performance. He only complained of his incompetence as a national keepers' coach. Differentiate the two, as a local coach that may be fine but to coach a national team it must made of sterner stuff.
Even about the language issue he never said said it. We only got it from the media. Did anybody hear from Akasi Appiah why he dropped him minutes be4 the game?

It really is not a language issue. Not all foreign born people are the same. Some are able to break into situations where they do not fit in. Others have problems doing so. It is a personality issue. For instance, this new striker, Kwesi Appiah is a sociable type of person. He recently excited his teammates with some hot dance moves that showed he is in touch with Ghana. Kwarasey is not that type so as a result he never quite fit in.
I think Kwarasey is a good goalie but from a personality standpoint, it just was not a good fit.

What makes you think I am from GFA.Look at the time stamp and compare that to the time GFA works.You are an idiot who is blinded by inferiority complex.I am quite sure if Dauda had conceded a goal in 30seconds into a match you would have demanded his whole family be slaighted.Everytime the ball passes our defender and Kwarasey is in the post they score.After his first game did you ever see him making any worthy saves?I rest my case.

I thought a soccer game is played over 90minutes and a goal can be scored any time. Scoring the first and the scoring in the last minute, which one wins the game?
The most disgraced goalkeeper of the whole tournament was Cassilas of Spain and the most unhappy player was the Portuguese guy who score only one goal against Ghana FATAU and went on to win 2014 honours.
And if you care to know that goal against Kwarasey is NOT the Wolr Cup's fastest goal ever scored

Fatau was speaking Hausa and Kotokoli so Boye thought he wants a Back pass and Fatau let the ball in. So don't blame Boye.

A very good point, Boss. The guy seems to be full of himself. If he were that good, he would still be playing in Europe and not in the US.

It's time you start putting the blame on the right person. Kwarasey did nothing wrong. He never complained when he was not being selected and sitting at bench.

I can imagine the situation in which all our foreign born professionals found themselves in when they are called for duty. Because all primitive Ghanaians believed if you don't speak Twi then you are not a Ghanaian.
