Ghanaians should not trust that forking Kurt Okraku to bring in any other coach. We don't need this Mauritania coach. We can use the likes of Laryea Kingston and Ibrahim Tanko who have been players of the black stars before. They will be much understood than the type of clowns Kurt Okraku brings.

If I were this man, I would not even dare take this position. My reason is because people don't like Kurt Okraku and his cohorts so he won't get any support. Hence, people will start boycotting black stars games.. there's no love if the GFA chairman cares less about our input. Our football league and the black stars have declined due to Kurt Okraku's bad decisions. He must resign. That's the only thing that will change our football fate.

What was Otto Addo's achievement before taking up the black star job.For your information this current black star is just a mere mediocre side so reduce your expectations to save your blood pressure.

Our ghanaian coaches are just a bunch of opportunists and nothing more! They have proven on many occasions that they are incompetent and let themselves dictate by gfa! Lets be honest and accept the fact that Ghana lacks good strikers and good coaches! That is fact! How many local coaches who were given the job have failed miserably but have refused to step back on their own? in recent times we had Kwesi Appiah, maxwell konadu on interim, CK Akunnor Otto Addo and the worst coach to ever exist - Chris Hughton! These are all ghanaian coaches- one is worse than the other! lets stop playing games and give it to a foreign coach! so lets stop playing games and get back onto the winning road let us try foreign coach i even think the mauritania coach is more competent than any of our current local coaches! or do you want George Boateng or Dramani to disgrace us even more???

And yet you people think with us staying with a Ghanaian coach has helped us thus far? Case in point sticking with one of our own hasn't led us to success for a very very long time. But yet we haven't had the best luck with foreign coaches either. Why? Because we do not play together as a team. We do not play for each other. If we played a much more defensive minded game tactically and weed out certain players from this team, we probably would be much better than what we are. But we also have to get rid of Okraku and others too.

Hahaha, Chris Houghton and Kwesi Appiah had the same problem, though both were at different ends of the spectrum. Chris plans his changes the night before, the game, and goes ahead with it, even if the planned player is the best on the pitch. Kwesi Appiah, on the hand, looks on sheepishly and afraid to change even players who can no longer run 5 meters. They both are bad coaches!

From this story and what it is worth, one can conclude that the GFA is not looking ffor a strong achiever who can take the Black Stars out of mediocracy. Why waste $45,000 a month and fire the guy after a few losses. GFA may consider hiring a serious Ghanaian coach who will recruit mainly good Ghana-based footballers and rebuild the Black Stars team. The four Afcons Ghana has won were all with Ghanaian Coaches.

The black star team must be giving to one of our old players and Laryea Kingston is the ideal guy to take over. This Mauritania coach will never be a better coach than our old stars. Experience should be out of the argument because we have seen some good intelligent young coaches that did good with ordinary teams from nowhere. If the job will not be given to our old players, then, we must consider Hispanic coaches they are much better technically than the English-speaking ones.

The 400,000 Euros for Herve Renard that you are worried about translates to 430,166 Dollars, which is 35,847 Dollars per month.

Why then do you say you can't afford Renard, GFA crooks?

HOW IS EVEN A POSSIBILITY IN DA WORLD ???
It’s So So Sad I Never Believe I Will Live 2 See This Day
All Da Coaches Around Da World This Is Who A Football Loving And Globally Known Nation Like Ghana Brazil Of Africa Can Find 2 Be Da Head Coach Of Our Senior National Team ?. So After All These Disgraceful Tournaments Of Group Stages Exists All This Kurt Okraku Or Whatever He Calls Himself Wants Is 2 Find Himself A Coach He Can Control + Influence Selection With His Agency Players. This Is Unbelievable, Seriously Unbelievable.
Is Like This Guy Think Ghanaian R His Slaves Or What It Is ? I Just Can’t Believe What I’m Seeing. Is This Really True ?
Look At What He Has Done 2 Our Entire Football.
From Da Black Stars, Under 23, Under 20, Under 17
He Is Absolutely In Charge Of Selection Feeding All Da Teams With Players From His Agency And From His Friends Agencies. How Do We Sit Down As A Country 4 One Man Full Of Unlimited Greed 2 Enslave + Disgrace Us This Way.
Da Whole World Cannot Even Believe What Is Happening 2 Ghana Football Something We Love Wholeheartedly, A Game That Pull All Of Us 2Gether + Unite Us All.
When Our Football Teams R Winning All Our Tribal, Religious, Political Differences R Automatically Disregarded.
This Okraku Greedy Fool Must Be Removed At All Cost + Prosecuted. Please Do Not Keep Silent Those Of U Back Home Join Da February 14 DEMONSTRATION AGAINST DA G.F.A
This Political Fools Must Not Be Allowed 2 Treat Us Like Their Slaves. Da Ordinary Citizens R Those That Line up In Da Heat, Vote 4 Them + Put Them In Offices. They R Our Servants Not Our Bosses Ok. Our People Must Be Totally Educated 2 Understand This, Politicians R Our Paid House Care Takers Absolutely Nothing More. We Must Stop Calling These Greedy Fools Honorables. There Nothing Honorable About What They R Hire By Us 2 Do 4 Us Which They R 90% If Da Time Not Doing.
CHIEFS + GOOD MEN OF GOD MUST STEP IN
KEEP CREATING DA AWARENESS
