    The Ayews though without them Blackstars would not win ...

    "Best" players do not always make a good team, the other factors such as commitment, discipline, respect, unity, team work, confidence etc are very important. Mahams did this for political gains, if he really wants to make li ...

    SOCCER DESPITE HAVING SUPERSTARS STILL REMAIN A TEAM SPORT AND HARMONY IS CRUCIAL IN SUCCESSES. FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES I BELIEVE THAT THE PRESIDENT;S MEETING WITH THE AYEWS WAS MOST UNFORTUNATE AND HAS THE TENDENCY TO B ...

    You are a very wise man,that is how it should be not the other way round.A friend of mine told me that the Zambian team heard about the return of our finest players and they are not happy about it at all.

  • PHOBIA-PHOBIA--Leeds 10 years ago

    If we talk about 'sacrifice',we should at all times reckon what took place in the past as well.The players being called back,have to some extent helped the team to maintain the respect it has now.Michael Essien was actively i ...

    Massa Kofi, so do you think the qualification for Brazil matters most than anything in the team?

    The problem is that you don't understand football(soccer) and for that matter, team sports. In team sports, it is not usually the assembly of best Players that wins but you need discipline and team unity and that is where the ...
