    When an organization or state fails, it is the leadership that is the root cause.

    The Turks have a homely proverb applied on such occasions: they say "the fish stinks first at the head", meaning, that if the servant is dis ...

  • NYANTEKYI THE FAILURE 9 years ago

    This team will not even get out of its group.
    We are the weakest team among the 16.
    Haphazard play, no plan, no tactics, no strategy. Co-coach Nyantekyi will interfere with Grant and Konadu because he has fixed the matches ...

    If you encounter a snake in your house, the best way to fight it, is to cut off its head. The remaining body will just entertain you by dancing till it becomes lifeless. So let us catch Nyantakyi and send him into exile, ...

    The Black Stars are not playing like a "championship team" and I do not think they can Win the 2015 AFCON.Mark my words. Offensively they are not playing the right way, defensively very disorganized, Midfield very shaky.

    These 3 countries look menacing.

    Our midfield and central defense are weak. Our 3 central defenders of Boye,Mensah and Awal play the same way, bugabuga tackling and only Awal is good in the air. The only way we can hold attackers is if we have a good defensi ...

    They sound like most of the other teams. The only absolutely solid team I have seen during these qualifiers are Algeria but even then, their MLS goalie was not really tested in their qualifying group. We know that all Afr ...

    You strategically left out talking about the coach for the Black Stars. But, the earlier we select the new coach, the better for the team to train, get use to him and his technical team, and his preferred style of play.

  • Kwame Adu-Gyamfi 9 years ago

    Ghana on paper has the best attack and midfield in Africa. That is why we have been the most consistent African team since the 2006World Cup.We have good materials. Avram Grant is good at taking good raw materials and doing m ...
