Okay your defence and goal keep allow two stoppable goals to make it, so what were you players up front except Dede doing with your opportunities? Squandering!! Gyan needs to think before he shoots!!

now you shoot the ball to bounce in front of the keeper sometimes so it makes it difficult for the keeper...Gyan's shot outside the 18..if he had kicked it to bounce in front of keeper he prob would have scored

GH VS.GERMANY
IF THE BOYS ARE READY TO DO SOMETHING THEY HVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. THEN GH CAN BEAT GERMANY.
1.GH MUST PLAY WITH URGENCY, BE AGGRESSIVE VS GERMANY. NO COMPLACENCY AND STAY WITH EVERY PLAY FOR 90 MINUTES! TRUST AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER!
COMPLACENCY IN CAMEROON' DEFENCE IS WAT ALLOWED GERMANY TO COME BACK N DRAW. THE CAMEROONIAN DEFENDERS WERE COMPLACENT AND GAVE UP ON PLAYS! JUST LIKE JOHN BOYE WOULD DO!
2.......2/3 TOUCHES PER PLAYER(BREAK, CTRL/PASS) AS YOU GET TO THE GERMAN 18, 1 TOUCH ONLY!
PLAYERS MUST ALWAYS MOVE WITHOUT THE BALL. NO PLAYER MUST STAND IDLE. THIS IS VERY CRITICAL. IF YOU FAIL TO POSITION URSELF WITHOUT THE BALL, U ARE PUTTING THE TEAM IN JEOPARDY!
KNOW WHO YOU WANNA PASS THE BALL TO BEFORE YOU COLLECT THE PASS.
3.DEFENDERS: DONT GIVE UP ON ANY PLAY N DONT BE COMPLACENT!
STAY WITH EACH PLAY/MARK THE GERMAN PLAYER UNTIL U HEAR A WHISTLE!
WE NEED SUMAILA AND MENSAH TO START. ALONG WITH OPARE AND AFFUL. I CANT STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THESE DEFENDERS NEED TO BE DISCIPLINED N PLAY WITH A SENSE OF URGENCY!
A)4,5..BE MINDFUL OF GERMAN AERIAL BALLS INTO THE GOALIE 6YD BOX AND GH 18. DEFEND THE BALL WITH HEADERS, NO SHOULDERS PLS....
B)THE RIGHT AND LEFTBACKS MUST KEEP THE GERMAN WINGERS AT BAY FROM THE GH 18, ESPECIALLY PODOLSKI. DRAW THEM FAR AWAY FROM THE 18. OPARE WILL HAVE TO BE VERY DISCIPLINED VS PODOLSKI.
A FEW DEROGATORY/TRASH TALKING IN PODOLSKI'S EAR WONT HURT.ASK KPB TO TEACH YOU SOME WORDS.
THE MORE DISCIPLINED YOU ARE, THE MORE FRUSTRATED PODOLSKI WILL BE.
WHEN HE GETS FRUSTRATED, HE TENDS TO PLAY RECKLESS. SO OPARE MUST BE DISCIPLINED AND PLAY WITH VIM!
C)4,5 MUST PLAY ZONE MARKING AND DONT TAKE UR GAZE OFF THE GERMANS STRIKERS(GOETZE AND MULLER). ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS ENTER THE GH 18 AND CONNECT WITH HEADERS! SO WATCH EVERY MOVE THEY MAKE!
D)THE GERMAN 7, 11 LIKE TO RUN BEHIND DEFENCES LIKE EGYPT SALAH. TO PREVENT THIS, U PLAY ZONE AND KEEP THE GERMANS SIDE BY SIDE OR ON THE INSIDE.
IF YOU LOSEGUARD AND THEY GET BEHIND YOU, ITS A WRAP!
4.MIDFIELD:
AA MUST START ESSIEN AND MUNTARI VERSUS GERMANY. WE NEED EXPERIENCE AGAINST THE GERMANS. IF ANY OF THEM SHOULD GET TIRED OR SUFFER FROM CAUTIONS.
JUST BRING IN ACQUAH, AND MOVE EITHER ESSIEN OR MUNTARI TO THE 8, BAM!
5.WINGERS AND STRIKERS
START KASA ON THE LEFT. ATSU ON THE RIGHT
I cANT STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THE WINGERS NEED TO CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE STRIKERS. CREATE! CREATE! CREATE!
RUN AT THE GERMAN 18. CROSS THE BALL INTO THE GERMAN 18 BOTH ON THE GROUND AND AERIALLY FOR MUNTARI, GYAN, KPB, DEDE.
7.WHATEVER THE GERMANS DO TO YOU. REPLICATE THAT TO THEM.
IF GERMANY ATTACKS GH ON THE WING. ATTACK GERMANY THE SAME WAY. IF GERMANY ATTACKS GH AERIALLY. REPLICATE THAT AS WELL!
8.BREAK, CONTROL, PASS AND AS YOU APPROACH THE GERMAN 18. SWITCH TO 1 TOUCH ONLY!
THE GERMANS ARE EXPERIENCED AND DISCIPLINED AND WONT COMMIT MANY MISTAKES. SO THE MORE SIMPLER GH PLAYERS CAN BE AROUND N INTO THE GERMAN 18.
THE BETTER.
10.
GH VS. GERMANY
IF THE BOYS ARE READY TO DO SOMETHING THEY HVE NEVER DONE BEFORE. THEN GH CAN BEAT GERMANY.
THE GAME OF SOCCER IS NOT ABOUT STRENGTH, BUT ABOUT TECHNIQUES(WATCHING, TIMING THE BALL) AND ENDURANCE!
LINEUP:
442 IN DEFENDING.
SWITCH TO 433 COUNTER AFTER THE BALL GOES PAST THE GERMAN 3RD.
2/3 TOUCHES PER PLAYER(BREAK, CTRL/PASS). AS YOU GET TOWARDS THE GERMAN 18, 1 TOUCH ONLY!
DEFENDERS: DONT GIVE UP ON ANY PLAY N DONT BE COMPLACENT! TRUST AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER!
STAY WITH EACH PLAY/MARK THE GERMAN PLAYER UNTIL U HEAR A WHISTLE!
WE NEED SUMAILA AND MENSAH TO START. ALONG WITH OPARE AND AFFUL. I CANT STRESS HOW IMPORTANT THESE DEFENDERS NEED TO BE DISCIPLINED N PLAY WITH A SENSE OF URGENCY!

I agree to some extend you obviously need to get the ball to the opposing team's final third to get a goal. However if you play a team with a packed defends just as the US did you simply can't be kicking the ball persistently to their goal post hoping one might slip through, what happens if you dont score. The get block they get ball each time you fire shot to their packed defends and they come at you.
A good technical football bench studies a game and makes changes or tweaks the game plan depending on the formation being played by the opposing team. In my opinion in the Ghana v US game, AP got it spot on but i think he was a little too late on his marks when he must have instructed Atsu to reduce the croses to the 18box but rather to try walk the ball and try penetrate the ball through the two row US defends line. We soon got a goal when Ayew dashed it through the 18 amd chipped it in. Sadly we were just unlucky to hold on. Generally I agree to you point but I think in football there's no such thing as master-key that unlock every door.

Rosemary had been divorced for a few years and was finding life very lonely. Finally, after much persuasion, she consented to go out on a date with Andy, a gentleman her daughter fixed her up with. Andy picked her up and they went to a very secluded spot to have a picnic. Andy had also been divorced for quite some time and found himself very attracted to Rosemary. Despite her initial resistance to his advances, he finally suceeded in making love to her. Rosemary was mortified at her lack of self-control and sobbed, "I don't know how I'm going to face my daughter, knowing that in a time of weakness, I sinned twice!" "What do you mean, twice?" Andy asked. "We only did it once." "Well, you're going to do it again, aren't you?" Rosemary asked.

The first point I want the writer to know is that playing at the WC is way more complicated than youth soccer. The higher the level of competition the more it is about big boys just kicking the ball into the goal area of the opponent and taking shots at goal. Your youth soccer approach is what Opare was doing kicking aimless long balls into the box of the opponent. I think our main problem is that a lot of our players, the defense especially, are not able to read the game. I have long before our game against USA known for example that the quality of Opare, Inkoom, Boye and Rabiu is not good enough. No coach in this world will get anywhere at WC with this kind of defense. You need 11 players who have soccer skills and ability to read the game on the field to win a WC game. This team is not balanced and the coach is also not the best coach to have.

We got a serious problem upfront. Many of our coaches prefer to play 1 top. The 1 top being asamoah gyan, who to me is a very useless striker . . . .The The rest is history.

How can you take shots at goal when you don't have the opening? In football there is strategic time to balloon ball, to build slowly to attack,or to mount fast breaks. All these are determined by circumstances of the game. The task is not just moving a ball forward and taking shots. It is the creating of an opening in a manner that you are likely to take shots and score that is the challenge. That cannot be done just by moving the ball forward and taking shots. You need to look at circumstances in the field of play and play strategies that can enable you create openings to shoot and to score and slowly building is one such strategy. Your claims cannot be true because in 2010 all the two goals we scored against the US were scored through fast breaks - an evidence of the coaches' recognition that fast breaks are applied when the circumstances call for.

The WC has assembled seasoned coaches in Brazil. Did you see AA's caliber there, no. GFA know where they are up to. How came that AA could not bring MILO down as his adviser? What does Oti Kengten know? Birds of the same feather flock together.
