    I sincerely agree with comments made so far and I think Coach Kwasi Appiah will certainly take these pieces of advice from Grusah and work on it while encouraging them to have self confidence and perform better. Maybe it was ...

    Where are we getting the goals from, when the top scorer plays in UAE against the Ronaldos, Ozils, etc. it will be a miracle if we even get a goal....

  • Kwasi Asante , Providence, R.I. 10 years ago

    I have read all comments at this piece.
    I think Coach Appiah does his mojos differently. Netherlands fielded all their tops to grade their performance. I think Netherlands deserves 2 goals.
    My guess is that all the B.S. pl ...

    Complete liars! When did Grunsah learn all that English? You are exposed because everybody knows Grunsah does not speak this English

  • benjamin O.anane 10 years ago

    Goals are not scored by strikers only,all can score, wait to see the real game bro.

  • Ato K. 10 years ago

    It's a sad case that Ghana cannotboast of 2 very prolific strikers in the mold of Bony and Drogba of Ivory Coast. This is the more reason that we should embark on programme to unearth and encourage such talents from both home ...

    Need we still play Korea?
    I don't think so.

    Why can't we isolate our training regiment behind closed doors while we sojourn in America?

    I think our boys have already passed their practicals. They need to be in the clas ...

    I think say you hit the jackpot and ron to Ghana dey enjoy alone. Talk true, my buroda. You hit the pot?

    Like you said, the Korean game is not necessary. This Holland game caused more harm than good: Akaminko is gone.

    Prufasa Sarskoquake, You were right, I thought the same thing this morning, why risking to play another friendly again. Now the defence is another wahala facing the walatulization.

    I cannot daff this time, hmmmm.

    Osee ayeeeee!!!!!! AA has name the 23 men squad. He has dropped Accam and schllup.

    Kwasi Appiah is just not serious.he is living 100 years behind time.Check his body language. I think Max Konadu will be better

  • Mama Tula 10 years ago

    I fully agree with my Akenteng,Grusah. The coach should ask the forwards to try goals from a distance instead of trying to dribble five to six man defence wall to put the ball in te net.
    QWhen you have a defence such as that ...

    2 SHOTS ON GOAL IN OVER 90 MINUTES? U ARE VERY PATHETIC. AA MUST QUIT THE JOB OR FAKE AN ILNESS TO SAVE HIMSELF FROM IMPENDING DOOM N UTTER DISGRACE IN BRASIL. MUAAHAHAHAAAAA!

    wat about u?...90 minutes and 1 OVER THE BAR BY KPB TO SHOW FOR? STSY HOME N WATCH THE GAME ON TV. GH MUST BOYCOTT TO SAVE EMBARSSMNT OF MAGNETIC PROPORTIONS!

  • The Stallion 10 years ago

    Even with our team C or D, we should be able to fire more than 5 shots on target, if we say we are ready for the WC. I'm not saying we should have won the game.
    I lie?

    You like truth too much. Why you too no talk lie lie small?

    This was an improvement. However, with regards to the Accam v. Jordan issue. I agree that Jordan should not be on the team but whether we like it or not, not taking both the Ayews would create team dissension. In managemen ...

    Gh Fuo, thanks you for a very sensible comment. Anokwale, I usually see a lot of sense in your comments, however in this case, the excuse you are trying to make for AA is pathetic! If Jordan is not good enough to be in the te ...

  • Jiew 10 years ago

    I am not happy at all after watching the video. I know it second team but should have done better. Ghana were like baby as someone indicated. It is not easy at all. AA encourage your team though to perform better next time.

    ghana couldnt creat any clear cut chance. when the blackstars are playing against tested opposition i also worry how and where we will score.
    its quite worrying.

    When Grusah speaks please listen, he is one of the best football brains...

  • the truth 10 years ago

    Ghana lacks the cutting edge in attack and organisation in defence. the days when John mensah and Vorsah used to organise the defence are over.
    Look at the stars now. as for Essien he is finished.

    A half-fit john mensah is always reliable than most of our defenders who always present leaky defence.

    Counting on what we saw yesterday, Ghana Black Stars are in for the beating by the teams in our group. Whether we like it or not, that’s how it seems.

    We played for 90 minutes with not a single shot on target.

    Ato we Ghanaians like only lies. Your truthful piece isn't appreciated. Even when the truth hits us in Brazil with disgrace, we will tell everyone we won the world cup!

  • Alhassan Gangu 10 years ago

    We said we wanted a Ghanaian coach, we'll we have one, why the complaint? A.A. has no clue period. We all knew what was coming looking at the qualifying series. The qualification was done by the boys and not AA.

  • Sigma, London 10 years ago

    I know it was a trial match that's why Ned fielded all their top players (and also recently England v Peru), so why are we field 2nd class players? The first eleven should always play and randomly brought in a 2nd team player ...

    The problem is in the defence, its not resolute and tidy. Some of the defenders don't even play to the whistle. Our main strike-force which we didn't use, are capable of tearing apart any defence in the world even without a c ...

    We have known for a fact that our defence has not been solid for some time now.what did we do about this? Nothing.
    We have just failed to address the issue and we may pay dearly for this.

  • benjamin O.anane 10 years ago

    After the 4-1 defeat by netherlands prior 2010 world cup we did excel not this one nil defeat, after all they are ruining runners up,not a bad team.
    A bad team conceed more goal.
    Go Black Stars.
