    Foolish man. Its because both of his sons are among the selected players. Wait till Jordan is dropped and see what he and Dede will do. Corrupt man who always wants to get his way by all means even if it means fixing matches. ...

  • Ama Buoh 10 years ago

    Yes, yes, yes and yes again. You are absolutely correct in every particular - because his 2 sons are both in the squad, he is elated and sucking up to the team handlers to keep them in the final selection. Remember his days a ...

    Leave the technical men to do their job so at the end of the tournament they will be fully responsible for the outcome.
    We will not accept any excuses only results from those put in charge.

    Drop all half-fit dinosaur players who lack the stamina to perform. You need youthful players who can ran and tackle the whole 90 minutes!

  • Boat 10 years ago

    I won't call them dinosaur players but definitely think Helegbe will do a better job than Essien or Jordan.It is just a shame that those two got their call based solely on name recognition.

  • john throway 10 years ago

    essien must be cut off from the squad. he's under spell from the curse by his father who died miserably while his millionaire football son was chasing g.string girls. he'll contaminate the squad with his curse to lose the mat ...

    ESSIEN AND JORDAN SHOULD BE DROPPED.

  • cofie 10 years ago

    I second that! I do not believe Essien can play 3 matches without sustaining injury.

  • kkk 10 years ago

    Jordan and Prince Tago can't score. Warris, Gyan, Accam have the killer instinct. Drop Jordan.

  • Pappoe 10 years ago

    Boy you had my heart pumping for a minute.I thought Prince Tagoe had been called.Any way you are right, Jordan is seriously riding the tail coats of his father but if he is not cut I hope he makes the best of this opportunity ...

  • Slimzay***The Unshakable Shaker*** 10 years ago

    Jordan Ayew, Samuel Inkoom and Albert Adormah may be the 3 players to be dropped.

    Dropping Inkoom will short the defense but Essien could be taken from the midfield to the defense as a back-up for any of the right full bac ...

    BECAUSE OF YOUR TWO SONS, THE SELECTION IS GOOD. BUT HONESTLY SPEAKING, JORDAN AYEW IS NOT RIPE OR BRAZIL AT ALL. HOPEFULLY ABEDI DID NOT BRIBE HIS AWY THROUGH.

  • Joseph Bonsu-Akoto 10 years ago

    He is so hAppy because his two boys are in the squard. Frankly Jordan this season is below the par required for a World Cup call up. To keep the 3 new guys the first out should be Jordan. Despite the cry out for experience ...

  • john throway 10 years ago

    i think essien is one of the weakest link. he's flopped under a spell from the curse of his father who died miserably without the millionaire footballer's care. if allowed to join the squad, he'll contaminate them with his cu ...

    The man just voiced his opinion. He is one of the millions of supporters with varying perceptions over Appiah's selection and he is entitled to it. Why all these derogatory descriptions and name-calling of a man who once held ...

    Jordan Ayew is NOT qualified to be in the team. I am so disappointed in Appiah. Selecting a team based on the names and NOT on merit. Shame!

  • Kwasi 10 years ago

    Abedi Pele is happy because his children has been included in the team that is why. This complete selfishness
