What did the Egypt coach do that our coach did not? Did Coach Appiah not name his team long before Egypt's?

Mr. know all.Its high time Ghanains had full confidence in their local coaches. After all foreign coaches are not magicians they also had the same coaching courses as our local coaches.Kwasi Appiah is doing a good job and he must be eencouraged to do better for his possible best.You don't even know how to orgainse a team left alone to strategize for a win, so my friend stop talking rubbish about the coach(K. Appiah) who knows better than you do. "Dan duru wa"

For Bob Bradley to add Mohamed Salah with his striking force, is Bradley telling us that he is going to use Salah as a secondary striker playing behind the main striker? Is his formation going to be either 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1 with counter-attack minded? Is the Egypt's coach trying to get just a single goal in the early stages of the match then lay back for counter-attack moves? Hmmmmmm, this may be possible.

I'm asking all these questions because normally, Mohamed Salah plays from the wing, to be specific, the right wing. He plays as a Play-Maker too and can as well play from the left wing. So bringing him to the striking force, is just a deception to full our technical team.

This is my advise.

Whether Mohamed Salah would be playing behind their main striker, which to me it may Arm Zaki, or playing from any of the wing, both our right full back and the left full back should be players with speed. If any of them doesn't have speed, he should limit his attacking, or let me say, his overlapping moves because this Salah player can play from either wing. I may be wrong; however, if I'm in Kwasi Appiah's shoes, I would still stick to my mapping. I don't think Bradley would put him at the number 10 (Play Maker) position because the player will be facing stiff challenges if he does, since our midfield rocks. I see Mohamed Aboutrika playing there instead due to his experience.

Here would be my 11 for them

1. Sherif Ekramy (Goal Keeper)

2. Ahmad Mohammadi (Right Full-back)

3. Mohamed Abdel Al Shafi, the 28yr old has more speed than the 34 yr old Sayed Moawad, who may have much experience. Andrea Ayew could get his hands full with Shafi if he is picked as their left full-back.

4. Wael Gomaa

5. Mohamed Naguib

For their two central defenders, I picked these two players due to their tremendous experience over their counterparts.

6. Rami Rabia (Defensive mid whom I think would be paired with the central midfielder Ghaly plays at Belgium)

7. Mohamed Salah (Right Wing)

8. Hassam Ghaly (Central Mid)

9. Amr Zaki (Center Foward)

10. Mohamed Aboutrika (Play Maker and most experienced)

11. Walid Soliman (Left winger but is the dangerous among them all. If you don't know, you better ask somebody.

Now for Ghana, since some of the players are our with injuries, my predictions for the positions have changed. If no more injure occur, I predict this players to stand in for us. All I'm saying is if I were the coach, which I'm not keep that in mind, I would select this players I'm about to list below. Therefore, please don't insult me if my selection doesn't suit yours.

1. Fatau Dauda (Goal Keeper)

2. Daniel Opare (Right Full-back)

3. David Nii Addy (Left Full-back)

4. Awal Mohamed (Center Defense)

5. Jerry Akaminku (Central Defense)

6. Michael Essien (Defensive Midfield)

7. Andrea Ayew (Right Wing)

8. Kwedwo Asamoah (Central Midfield playing as the hidden play maker)

9. Asamoah Gyan (Striker)

10. Sulley Ali Muntari (Play Maker)

11. Wakaso Mubarrak (Left Midfield)

Which squad will prevail on the D-day? We live to see!

I think even yours is better. I like that one too. I put Agyemang Badu on a super sub in case something happens to Essien or K, Asa. On the other hand, yours is superb changes as well.

Thanks bro.

Black Stars must watch the full back El Mohammady.

He is tall and good in the air. He loves to attack. Black Stars must man mark him whenever he ventures forward.

Aboutrika has been an Africa player of the year. He is still a good player. Gedo came on as substitute and scored the winner in the Africa cup final, and Salah has been scoring goals for Basle.

We must be tight against this team.
