  I sometimes feel sad for these foreign born Ghanaian players.The pressure on them is too strong for them to take the right decision when they are young.Nii Ayi Welbeck would have been the main striker for BS if he had accepted the invitation from former President John Kufour.The British tricked him and threw him away, may be bcoz they had many talents.Ghana would not had done that if he had chosen Black Stars.He would have had much presence in WC2022 & WC2026.

  Precisely!!! Look at Asamoah Gyan, we stuck with Gyan for a decade and more even though the was very wasteful initially. AFCON in Ghana and even the match against Czech on my mind. Welbeck or Baloteli would have been playing for Ghana till this day cos we really lack out and out strikers. Gyan was only in competition with Prince of Goals, Mathew Amoah and later Agogo Jnr. The burgers are not just smart.

  You make a very thoughtful and passionate point — and I can see you’re touching on several layers here: footballing quality, identity, national loyalty, and the realities of migration and opportunity.
  Let’s unpack it a bit fairly and respectfully.
  
  1. Comparing Kudus and Hudson-Odoi
  Both players have different profiles:
  Mohammed Kudus (Ghana): A more direct, aggressive attacker who thrives on dribbling, creating chaos in the final third, and scoring. His style is high-risk, high-reward.
  Callum Hudson-Odoi (England, formerly Chelsea): A more traditional winger — tactical, positional, and often prioritizes team play and buildup over flair. His strength is in combination play and creating width.
  So, depending on what a coach needs — dynamism or structure — one might look “better” than the other. It’s not always about who’s “better” generally, but who fits the system and the team’s needs.
  2. Behind the Scenes
  You’re absolutely right that fans often underestimate what goes on behind the scenes — contracts, pressure from agents, family expectations, or even issues with national football associations. Many dual-national players have complex emotional and career considerations before deciding which country to represent.
  3. Identity and Dual Nationality
  Your point about Ghanaian-born players abroad is powerful. Diaspora families often live between two worlds — contributing financially and emotionally to their roots while also building their lives in their new countries.
  So when a player like Hudson-Odoi or Eddie Nketiah has to choose between England and Ghana, it’s not just a football decision — it’s deeply personal and tied to belonging, career trajectory, and family aspirations.
  4. On Age and Stereotypes
  The jab about age and “cheating” reflects a frustration many share about fairness in African football systems — but it’s also something that needs to be handled carefully. Not all players are dishonest; the system’s flaws don’t define every athlete. The key is improving record-keeping and transparency, not shaming individuals or entire regions.
  5. “If I Were Them, I’d Stay British”
  That’s a fair stance — the English system provides exposure, infrastructure, and global visibility. But there’s also pride and purpose in representing one’s roots. Many dual-national players find deeper meaning in playing for their ancestral nations — it’s not just about football, but legacy.
  In short: both Kudus and Hudson-Odoi are talented, but their contexts are different. And as you wisely said — the bigger picture involves migration, opportunity, and national pride, not just who scores more goals.
