Why does Coach Avram persistently bench Kwarasey and field Brimah? By all standards, Kwarasey is far better than Brimah. Brimah couldn't save a single penalty in AFCON 2015 shot-outs and he also missed his own shot which the Ivorian goalkeeper was able to save for his country to win the cup.

Kwarasey did the same kind of thing against Kansas City for Portland Timbers to win the 2015 MLS cup. He also kept the goal for and successfully captained Strømsgodset in Norway for Strømsgodset to win the Norwegian 2013 cup. Brimah boasts of no such record. So why is Avram Grant persistently ignoring Kwarasey? Can someone explain to me?

African leaders are confused and don't know what is good for them. Why did the GFA sack one of our own, Kwesi Appiah, when he was doing very well with the Black Stars.Now under the tutelage of a white coach, look at the performance of the Black Stars.This clearly shows that African leaders are confused and don't know what is good for their people. Even, Avram Grant does not respect GFA officials.

GFA Corruption has come home to Roost!
Nyantakyi must pack up and leave and allows Tony Baffoe to take over as fa head. Your silly corruption and pay to play is the cause for all this mess. U nyantakyi employed Grant, the jew to help influence your prospects in getting a fifa spot. Now u are happy so you could care less if bstars fail...muahahahahaaaaaaa U call the catastrophic shame delivered to gh in brasil under appiah "doing well"? U call his handling of the the kpb, muntari and essien, Kwarasay issue "doing well"? Subsequently, appiah returned home and put up a string of poor performances which ultimately led to his termination. So what do u mean by "why did gfa sack one of our own appiah when he was doing well"? U are the one who is confused. Appiah with his national bstar coaching acumen and training has been in mediocre Sudan lg for 2yrs and still can't win the sudanese lg title. What does that tell you about him and his coaching abilities? Do u think he has improved to handle the bstar job? Has his tactics and strategies as a coach improved? Has he learned how to motivate, massage, tolerate and deal with the egos of these foreign based players? Let me tell you what will happen if kwasia appiah is hired right after grant. He will do even worse and this time ghanaians won't forgive nor forget him forever more. If gfa think I'm wrong they should do me a huge favor and give appiah the job muahahahahaaaaaaa

Sacked Kwasi Appiah when he was doing well with the black stars?, He went to a whole world cup and came home with one point, after also failing to control his camp the players were behaving iresponsibly and threatening to boycott a game. To what level did he take the black stars?, we came very short of a world cup semifinal in 2010 for God's sake. He should have sent us to the semifinal so you can say he was doing well.Don't blame the FA wrongly because I would have done the same if I had the power too

This is the right thing to do to avoid more sorrows that would disintegrate the team with all its talented players. Grant inherited a Team that was winning matches and was growing stronger day by day. Now we have a team with diminishing talents and losing matches. Why don't we take Stephen Appiah to hold fort into the the Nations Cup at least

The country is just funny. We keep chasing our tails going round and round. No straight path forward. Yesterday, it was sports minister not paying plane tickets for the players, today, it's the coach, tomorrow, we will find another flimsy excuse. There is no shortage of by heart blaming.

People must stop pointing fingers at Avram Grant. What about the minister of sport? He is also a contributing factor. However the world cup is not for one country to qualify all the time.

We have stephen Appiah, Michael Essien, Sule, Pentsil, J. Mensah, Ayew, Prince etc. why can't any of them become a future coach for the team? Are u mentally derailed?

Appiah I'm just disappointed in your comments about the coach but please the fact is that your time and the group of players you played are much different from the square we have now. Where are the players compare to your days of playing with such great talent like Essien, muntari, Otto addo, yourself just name it thats why you managed to qualify all the three word cups but now the players are not there Asamoah Gyan was performing due to the good players he was playing around him but now the quality is not there so its not about the coach but the players.

SAMUEL APPIAH SHOULD COME AGAIN. UPON HIS VAST EXPERIENCE WHY CAN'T APPIAH ADMIT THAT THE TEAM IS NOT DOING WELL BECSUE THERE ARE NO RELIABLE STRIKERS. AT LEAST APPIAH SHOULD KNOW THAT THE TEAM HAS DEPENDED ON ASSAMOAH DJAN AONE FOR GOALS FOR WELLOVER 10 YEARS. DID APPIAH SEE THAT KIND OF A SITUATION WHEN HE PLAYED IN EUROPE? DID UDINESE OR TORINO EVER DEPEND ON ONE STRIKER, AND FOR HOW LONG? JSUT WHAT HAPPENED IN EGYPT LAST SUNDAY - OUR PLAYERS PUT UP A GOOD PERFORMANCE, BUT COULD NOT FIND THE NET. WHY CAN'T WE TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT OUR SITUATION? AND WHY DOES APPIAH THINK CHANGING COACH GRANT WILL END OUR TROUBLES? THAT IS JUST A JOKE OR WISHFUL THINKING.

Stephen Appiah thanks for your observation help us tell whoever is in charge that without competition we cannot achieve anything. We need some senior players in the team. Roger Miller was in the national team for a long time. You can also do it . may be you come in at a very critical time Or you will be part of the technical team. Essen is not completely finished. Then somebody else. Then talk for the inclusion of Kelvin and muntari to be given the chance to justify their inclusion OK. Now we have to win all our matches by hook or crook. Stephen help . even if you have to wear the Jersey to enable as win please do. Stephen look at how your brother Mario Ballotelli is doing very well in France. Somebody everybody think is disrespectful and not doing well and kick out of the EPL. Now they wish he is back but they are ashame to call him, even if he will go back they have to pay more for him. That is how we have to treat our brother muntari and Kelvin. Iam not a prophet but I can prophesy that when we include muntari and Sulley we shall qualify for the world cup and all ghanians will be happy. I have not seen them face to face and they don't know me but I have said several times that they must be included. I will not contribute on this topic again. Good luck.
