    I should be hired. I would revamp the team and we would play friendlies against Cote D'Ivoire and DR Congo and eliminate those who do not perform.

    The best coaches take big salaries which we're not ready to pay. The Herve Renards etc are excellent coaches but they take big money. So no need hiring Otto temporarily. We should just take our time and hire a decent ATTACK M ...

    Please don’t fall for this distractions. It’s meant to creat unnecessary uproar and then the give us a sub par coach which we will the say at least this new one is better than Otto Addo. Don’t fall for it.

    Otto Addo can't do anything with the current crop of players. Let's go in for a good European coach who can not be manipulated by the GFA in his team selection and be bold to retire Dede Ayew.

    Black Stars need a local coach.We should do what lvory Coast did by appointing George Boateng the assistant coach and all shall be added to it.The African cup is won by African coaches.

    George Boateng is not ripe for the job.
    An experienced, well tested local coach should handle the Black Stars e.g. like we used to have Oti Akenteng, EK Afranie, Osman Doudu etc in the past.

    Breaking news from Reuters. The national football coach Juergen Klinsmann will be sacked very soon after South Korea was defeated by Jordan footballers 2 - 0. Klinsmann will be available for the Black Stars Team as a coach.

  • Toto 3 months ago

    Jürgen Klinsmann earns about 2.1 million dollars per year with the South Korean team. Can Ghana afford him?

  • Anokwale 3 months ago

    Klinsmann had issues with the players. The locker room was tense. A similar thing happened in the USA. I am not sure if he can handle cultural difference well.
