Brainless Africans such as @Kweku Tsin do not the value of detailed scientific study and analysis. No wonder, Africa is always behind in almost everything. We hate painstaking, detailed brain work. We are more into the use of brute physical strength and raw talent. Ask yourself why most Ghanaian football strikers hit their a greater percentage of their shots off targets - lack of basic ball kicking technique. Do you think the fifa technical study group has just been instituted for the first time just for the sake of paying Otto Addo?

Quite a credible role. He's on some sort of an observe and report mission at the WC. Kudos to him. Hope the salary and remuneration is far better than that of Gh.

You've forgotten that Ben Koffie built a solid Youth National teams base since 2003 to 2013 for Ghana. Black Stars benefited from that nursery ground. Coach Otto Addo cannot be blamed for that failure

Many Ghanaian Sports lovers talk about football as if they are in an Akpeteshie Blue Kiosk. BS is not doing well bcoz of our poor Juvenile performances since 2015. Compare our U17 & U20 performances from 2003 to 2014, we were doing well that's why we could use Serbian or Local Coaches yet we played with cohesion at AFCON & WC. The current GFA have destroyed our Juvenile teams bcoz they have turned into marketing avenues to sell their own players.

Do you think guiding and qualifying one team to FIFA WC on 2 consecutive occasions is an easy task? He deserves it , it wasn't luck let's praise him. FIFA Technical Committee knows Ghana Ranking since 2022 ' 26, we were not among the top ranked in Africa but we went thru on both occasions under the same Coach, let's give him his due.

Otto you are a blessed man. If even man tries to bring you down in spite of your efforts in qualifying the team twice to the world cup, God has a bigger role for you. We hope the curse of our ungratefulness will not follow us in the near future. We are already dealing with similar curse regarding our poor shows in every Afcon forgetting the players that won us our last Afcon in 1982 were not properly remunerated and appreciated leaving some to die in abject poverty. How do we now expect to be doing better in Afcons if we have been so ungrateful as a people to those who brought some form of glory to us.

I predict that Otto Addo will return to coach a different African side and end up defeating Ghana in a critical match. That is how these things work. He will develop and come back stronger.

He can use FIFA Technical Committee promotion to improve his CV to get a better job. Very Foolish Comment who told you he was taking $100,000/mth? Duck Ghanaian mentality. Envy can kill you.

Well, we can be sure that if he is asked to do anything that concerns Ghana’s Black stars he will ensure that Ghana does not win. FIFA is quite funny though. A coach who was a poor coach, yet you appoint him to advise on technical aspects of the game! If he knew so much, he would not have been sacked by GFA. What a contradiction!

@ Ghanaweb, why didn’t uou show the photo of ‘Smiling Otto Addo?’ Great job - I hope Otto will analyse the games with better analogies than his Fufu and rice fiasco. Few years down the line, Ghana will beg Otto to comeback, when the current GFA twerps are old and retired. Otto won’t turn his back to Mother Ghana; he’s too pious to revenge GFA’s wickedness.
