    This ranking is like FIFA national teams ranking, You have to be in the top 20, if not the top 10 for it to matter. I think Appiah had to go, he just wasn't good enough in my eyes. However, Milo can do a lot with very little. ...

    No coach below AA should be accepted period. Look at the demands and compare how much AA made to those above his ranking. Place all world cup players and rank them, you will find this huge disparity among the Ghananians as t ...

    For Ghanaians all they know is to sack the coach. Let us do the same ranking for all professionals in the country including the President and we will know where we belong. Some people will even be sacked and banned from writi ...

    Who's this Milo thing? Which Nation in the world other than low class under performing nations in Africa will hire him? Can he win the world cup for Ghana?

  • Whatever 11 years ago

    Milo almost led the blackstars into the semi Finals of the world cup with Appiah only managing to lead the same blacksatrs to the bottom of their group coupled with an embarrassing first round exit. Fifa just didn't want to t ...

  • J.O 11 years ago

    The players Milo used for the World cup were different. Think of Stephen Appia, John Mensah, Kingston (Essien and Kevin are no more inform) etc. The group was not also the same. The German team won the world cup this time whi ...

    Then is right 4 Appiah to go.he is not amoung the top 10 not even the top 20.Let Appiah go

    SHOULD MILOVAN, RANKED 331, OR MILOSLAV, RANKED 300, REPLACE APPIAH, RANKED 32? THAT IS THE QUESTION TO ANSWER.

    WHY GET CONCERNED WITH THESE RANKINGS? THEY ARE BOGUS. IF JOACHIN LOW GOES TO COACH CHAD, WHAT DO YOU THINK HIS RANKING WILL BE? IT IS NOT ALWAYS THE COACH WHO MAKES THE IMPACT BUT THE QUALITY OF PLAYERS COUNTS A LOT TOO.

    No

  • Just my thougths 11 years ago

    Appiah would not have been among the list if not because he was the coach of black stars (He did not coach any team before taking on the black stars job). If he is a very good coach he will find a job soon and prove it by per ...

    That is his only crime.He is not an Ewe or Ga.If Appiah had the players that Milo had access to he would have done better than quarter finals.

  • not necessary 11 years ago

    check this construction:
    The ranking favours coaches who are active in their jobs who those who have been jobless freely tumble down the ranking.

  • Theophilus-USA 11 years ago

    Why are they jobless? No team wants them, two those Scandinavian people are more corrupt than any other place on this earth.

  • RAYMOND NASH, LONDON 11 years ago

    Rubbish ranking!!!!!

  • GC/USA 11 years ago

    WHY NOT WAIT TO SEE THE RANKING WHEN APPIAH IS ALSO OUT OF THE COACHING JOB. IT WAS NOT APPIAH FOOTBALL COACHING SKILLS BUT RATHER THE TALENT OF THE PLAYERS. NO LOCAL CLUB WANTS HIM AS A MANAGER.

  • Balderash 11 years ago

    Even though Appiah spanked Bradley's team and Bradley could not even qualify his team for the world cup. Kwesi Appiah is not a coach. If he is that good, let him find another job.

  • Kofi - USA 11 years ago

    IF MILO IS THAT GOOD WHY IS HE JOBLESS. LET HIM FIND ANOTHER JOB. NOW HE WANTS MORE MONEY AND GHANA BEING SO STUPID IS GOING TO GIVE TO THIS MEDIOCRE COACH. HE NEEDS TO BE RUN OUT OF THE COUNTRY FOR DISRESPECTING US.

  • concern citizen 11 years ago

    Envy will kill Ghanaians. Kwasi Nyantakyi and his COHORTS MUST go GFA is for Ghanaians, its not anybodies personal property!!

  • ASEM 11 years ago

    Obibini's mentality: Every whiteman is an engineer or a doctor. Then national team must be coached by a Ghanaian for the simple reason of when Ghana met Serbia at the World Cup in SA. How I felt for Milo.

  • NOT CONVINCED 11 years ago

    Appiah beat Bradley 6-1 (Kumasi).
    Bradley beat Appiah 2-1 (Cairo).

    Appiah went to World Cup twice (2010 and 2014).
    Bradley went to World Cup once (2010).

    So why is Bradley rated higher than Appiah?

    Racism!

  • Joe Turkey 11 years ago

    This is all about team performance. Computers don't watch coaches coach. They only compute the number of games a coach wins. That is NOT a measure of good coaching. Appiah must go.

  • Joe 11 years ago

    It is sad that in Africa the white man is still our master. An African does not want his fellow African to succeed and that is very sad. I believe Akwasi Appiah should be reinstated.

    The Brazillian coached resigned after the terrible World cup performance. Akwesi Appiah should have elected to resign before getting forced to. He's a nice man but very terrible coach, period.

    This is bullshit ranking. Are they saying Kwesi Appiah is better than Pep Guordiola or Jose Morino? Do they really have any sense of judgement?

    Who said Kwasi Appiah is not a good coach. The problem is his dark skin. Blacks do not respect blacks until they are dead and about to be burried.
