    So coach Appiah couldnt do that or did not see that Jordan has to fall back and it has to take a player to do that. What a coach!

  • Kwame Asante 9 years ago

    Appiah has just lost it. It is good to go .It will save us further embarrassments. I am sad he going though, cos he would justify to others why a ghanaian can't coach the black stars. But we got it wrong to start with, by app ...

    How many times do you want to fail Ghanaians, AFCON, WORLDCUP and AFCON qualifier. He was hired to do a job and he failed but sad the GFA took so long to rectify the situation.

    I have said it over and over again. Jordan can only play like Clifford Aboagye of Satellites fame because of his speed and dribbling skills. The only problem is that he doesn't like to pass balls. Jordan is not a striker, he ...

    what if your Milo comes to do worse and is unable to qualify the team to the afcon. your blame should not be on the players but on your own washed mentality

    Dede should be made a player, captain and coach of the Black Stars.

  • NO EUROPEAN TEAM OUTSIDE FRANCE WANTS 9 years ago

    Every year the Ghanaian media will make the Ghanaian people feel like any of the Ayews is wanted by an European team outside France.

    By not resigning, he rather got paid a severance award instead him having to pay for breach of contract. Weak mind

    Dede Ayew is trying to so hard to be the captain. They have serious attitude issues and over rated. Ghana will be better of without them.

  • Ebo Bilson 9 years ago

    He deserves to be captain. Better than the azonto dancer who has zero peoples skills. Has the azonto dancer come up with a one sentence over the Brazil saga?

  • koff scoff 9 years ago

    Its normal though not accepted for a player to instinctively go to the touchline to issue instructions to players more especially when the game is becoming 'HOT' and to the closing stages.Please DO NOT READ ANYTHING EXTRAORDI ...

    We need a better Ghanaian coach. Nyantakyi caused a financial loss to the state so jail him like Tsastu(Gbese) Tsikata.

  • Rastafara"I" 9 years ago

    The corrupt and weak-minded government does not seem to care. This deal was premeditated.
    Even Nigeria waited after the world cup to extend the coach's contract.
    Ghana has passed Nigeria in corruption and with its GDP les ...

    KUKRUDU-USA.....I agree 100% with you.
    Sellas Tetteh should have been groomed for the job. I advocated that ages ago, before Kwesi Appiah was rightfully given the opportunity.

    I agreed with you! Thank you!

    Appiah was a disgrace to African coaches. He was the wrong choice to begin with and should have been changed long since. Unfortunately, the lack of vision that marked Appiah afflicts even the President and the GFA.

    U live in antiquity, way down in the past. We do not hate our own but we are being frank and objective. We are not behaving like the parent who applauds whatever behaviour their kid puts up.
