Painstill, keep your head up. Even if you never get another call to the bs, some of us will always remember you as someone who is very passionate about playing for his country, and if some would like to fault you for that, that is their cup of tea.

Bear in mind that the reporter probably asked him a question and he was simply giving an answer....... its not like he is saying he should be picked for Black stars........they asked him a question and he said if they call him he will come, if not then thats fine. Paintsil has been a selfless and committed defender, always available and always willing to play...... let us give praise when due and not try to demoralise him.

Nobody is making the effort to investigate this business in Ghana. They all over Ghanaweb leaving their contact numbers every where on every story. Only God knows how many people have fallen victim to this trafficking network. I'd like to caution our young girls especially to be very careful about their choices. Go on the internet and google human trafficking/organ harvesting and read all about it. It's a very serious issue!!!

I must confess not been a keen follower of player news unless it is to do with Black Stars.Why was he celebrating a goal with the Israeli Flag and what team was he playing for? More info please.

I CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND THE RATIONAL BEHIND JOHN'S RATIONAL THAT STUPID ACT TO WAVE AN ISRAELI FLAG IN EGYPT.FIRST AND FOREMOST HE WAS THERE FOR BLACKSTARS NOT FOR THE ISRAELIS AND FOR HIM TO SELFISHLY SCORE A FEW BROWNIE POINTS WITH HIS ISRAELI CLUB AT THE EXPENCE OF THE SAFETY OF HIS TEAM MATES AND ALL OTHER GHANAIANS LIVING IN EGYPT WAS DISPICABLE.HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN BANNED FROM EVER PARTICIPATING FOR THE STARS.

GHANABA,I really understand your irritation toward this" PAST" incident.These are still very young kids who will make mistakes as they grow in the very bright lime light and so we should be able to tamper justice with mercy and common sense when dealing with them. He apologized and I am quite sure the management now have rules governing this sort of behavior when representing Ghana.One thing is for certain though, AT LEAST HE SHOWED UP WHEN WE NEEDED HIM.I rather he err and wave another flag than follow in the footsteps of Desialle and play for another country's national team.

That is the Ghanaian mentality they are over obsessed with age as if old age is only reserved for some people.Afterall it is just a number for everybody and unless you die early you will get there.Just look at a 35 year old lady telling me she is tooooo old the last time I visited Ksi.so you can imagine where we are now as a nation.What matters most is performance and not age.Thanks.

You're doing the right thing and wherever you play your lovers would continue to watch you.When BS fans talk about dedication your name is always prominent and may God bless you for that.An English man wondered why you sat on the bench of Fulham while i watched Ghana v England with him.He said,'this guy is better than most of the big names we have in the premier league'.This also made me proud of you.Even if they do not recall u ,just concentrate on your earnings for your future.May God bless you!
