Mr Koufie is an objective analyst and an expert in Ghana soccer and in this instance almost got it 100% right. Those Players who deserve call ups are unfortunately playing at positions where the senior Blackstar team is well stocked. Kwabena Adusei and Nuhu Sulley deserve call ups but we have, John Boye, Jonathan Mensah, Isaac Vorsah, Rashid Sumaila and Awal vying for the four and five positions.

That leaves the two Aduana Players playing one and two where the Blackstars need help. Godfred Saka and Stephen Adams deserve at least a call up. At lesst Stephen Adams, the goalkeeper of the local Blackstars has the structure of a goalkeeper, tall, broad, strong, agile with good anticipation skills. Ghana has only conceded one goal and that was from the penalty spot. If we are going to take three goalkeepers to Brazil, the competition for the three spots should be filled from Kwarasey, Daniel Adgei, Stephen Adams and Fatau Dauda. If Fatau Dauda continue to warm the bench in South Africa, then he should lose his place in the team.

My first question to octogenarian Ben Koufie what is Black Stars proper?

I also to know how can you properly groomed a player when you make a statement like that, this tell the player you have a better chance being called into the "The" Black Star if you leave Ghana and try out with any unknown country.

Would Uncle Ben pick Fatau Dauda over Stephen Adams just because Fatau Dauda is warming bench in South Africa where his own coach had said he is not good enough.

Come on Uncle Ben be real.

Mr Ben Kuoffie's assertion that, no player of the local Black Stars deserve a call up to the Senior Black Stars is a right inference. For me I don't see any of the assembled players worthy of a call up to the main Black Stars. They are very individualistic in their play without focus, particularly hanging unto balls,giving out faulty passes, vision less and wayward kicks,uncalled for simulations and what have you.
Everyone of them seem to be playing for himself with the view to attract scouts who have come to contract cheap players for low fees. We don't have a team in the Local Black Stars,even though they are soldiering on in the current tournament. Uncle Ben, you've hit it right on the nail.

in the senior national team, there has not been a single match that our central defenders of John mensah, john boye, vorsah, jonathan, akaminko, rashid have not commited one mistake or the other. they seemed sometimes defficient in asserting themselves throughout. on the other hand aduseiand nuru sule, are hardly committing mistakes and are asserting themselves and are being inventive.
Again our blackstars midfield has been crying for a that sublime midfielder when on the attack and asiedu attobrah with the limimted time he has gooten so far has proven that he is just fiiting to be part of the first team.
however, with yahaya, not too strong on the ball and sometimes leaving the ball behind him, i am not comfortable he joining the senior national team unless it can be corrected.

If at this time, we are still drafting amateurs in to the BS then we don't have a team yet. AA is really not prepared for this task. If AA cannot deal with the crop of players he has, he should better quit. This is the time for trial matches to blend the players together. If AA is not up to the task, he should quit now. He should not bring in new players to cause confusion in the team.

We however still love you.Go for gold local Black Stars.

If you don't give the locals at least 2 slots how do you make discoveries. How do you groom a player when you don't give them an experience?
Either think 2 slots at least should be local players; a goal keeper and an outfield player.

It is premature to go into the debate whether any member of the current lcal BS is fit for the BS proper because it can have negative effect on them. It is true they have been that impressive but there is something about them that makes them tick. It is out of merit that they are at the semi final.
When our much more trusted BS met DRC in the nations cup in 2013, the scores were 2-2 -- at the time the match ended, it was obvious that had the match gone on for a little longer, we would have lost. And that was almost the same team that met the local BS at the 1/4 final and the local BS won 1-0.
So let us not pass any judgment on them because they have done well.

I live outside Ghana. During Christmas I watched Heart of Lions vrs Kotoko game on Super Sports in which Kotoko lost by 2 nil. However there was this strong defender of Kotoko who caught my eyes, I realised he cleared his lines very well, tackled well and won most of the aerial battles with the maurading Heart of Lions attackers. Now I realise he is the same brave Kwabena Edusei who dealt with all the long aerial balls DR Congo kept ballooning into Ghana's half. He is a future Black Star materila if not now.

I am truly shock after reading the statement made by a head technical person. My brother you totally lack the sports psychology in you. From all subtleties a person like you should not speak to down grade any soccer player in Ghana.This is very political incorrect of you.
"No CHAN PLAYER DESERVES A PLACE IN THE BLACK STAR" and I will tenaciously say you don,t deserve a place in the technical team in coach Appiah's cast. I think you should bow out from coach Appiahs group of coaches immediately.
These guys are still in the tournament, why not give them some encouraging words to do well in the next games. What about mr, if something happened to one of the black star players before the world cup what will you do then?.
I will not like to see you in Brazil with the black stars. If we loose any game I will surely blame you for your stupid decision.

Ben Koufie don't know shit-apart from playing for Cape Coast Vipers and Kumasi Evergreen, what did he achieve as a player ? He never wore the national jersey in any level.
His hatred for Late Robert Leonard Mensah for being a national goalkeeper still fresh in my memory.
I am a boyhood friend of Robert Mensah and a Cape Coaster and Ben Koufie hated Robert Mensah's (Akusa as we called him, when we were kids playing at Victoria Park)achievement because he overshadowed him at national level.
