    Every coach around the world now knows Ghana government will be paying up quickly should there be player revolt and paying hard currency in large amounts. We must weed out those useless coaches that have no track record of wi ...

    This is Nyantakyi way of rallied to Ghanaians to “support our own regardless of society, ethnicity and not bring them down.

    The support must only be for him Kwesi Nyantakyi alone anything else is good to go to hell. Wh ...

    This is a race between pont and kluivert. I like kluivert simply becos. He has apprenticed under several reputable trainers as compared to pont who has only apprenticed under 1 coach.

  • Mr.N 9 years ago

    He is also younger and being there I still do not this from Nyantakyi he is rallying that we support our own and does something different is this the animal farm? Do what I say but don't do what I do.

    I like kluivert,i am sure he will perform well,he stil has the strength as well.I am sure he can get along with our players.

  • Kwame 9 years ago

    If only foreigners qualify for the Black Stars top job, then it will be fair to say that the entire membership of the FA should be made up of only foreigners. Those there now have no brains.

  • Adeema 9 years ago

    not only foreigners qualify for the Black Stars top job,we gave Appiah the chance but what results to get get?The worst ever.We have 2 give the job 2 those who can do it well irrespective of their natinalities,but not the one ...

    Very intelligent question he was the one charged sometime ago with rape.If our own Marcel Dessaile is not fit then Kluivert is also not.

  • Medumaba 9 years ago

    My friend check your records well. Kluivert rather cause an accident which resulted in the death of a young father. It was Van Persie who was accussed wrongly of rape.

  • Rastafara"I" 9 years ago

    he was not legally charged with rape. But a woman did accuse him of rape and it was a big media story.

  • Abrantie - In Da House 9 years ago

    And so what? Why didn't the woman take the issue up? Are we here to judge someone's life or to look 4 the best coach 4 the BS? U PHDs make me really sick. rastafara I indeed. How can you attack the only blackman on the list a ...

    Most jamaicans are largely from kromantse,.elmina. The maroons in the. Mountains. This is fact!

  • Gerard Germany 9 years ago

    Not rape. He had an Car accident inclusive alcohol and a Person was injured ore dead.

  • Rastafara"I" 9 years ago

    he was not charged!

    SOURCE: SOMEWHERE ONLINE
    When in 1996, a woman claimed to be raped by Kluivert, the media made huge stories out of it.

  • Sigma, London 9 years ago

    Kluivert is our own and qualified. He is also still alive with the sport. My pick is Kluivert.

  • Yakubu Kobo 9 years ago

    Iam not a racist but i think a black coach will do better with the Blackstars than a white coach ,try one of these guys Seedorf ,Rijkard ,Desailly if they are interested or a Ghanaian coach not a puppet one anyway GFA.

  • Solomon 9 years ago

    Kluivert is the only player who ever made me to like Barcelona, I hope he gets the nod and he is able to sharpen our attackers, particularly that our corner kicks are not wasted.

  • The Vice President 9 years ago

    After over 50 year post independence we do not have any smart Ghanaian to to be head coach of the senior nationa football team. What should we expect if the likes of Kwasi Nyantayki areat the helm of affairs in football. God ...

    Boss you are right. I have always said Sellas can deliver very well with the present crop of players. After all with his exploits at the under 20 level isn't it an opportunity to give him a try or lets say promote him in thes ...

  • Ghfuo: jail Nyantakyi 9 years ago

    I believe Desailly can do the job. Why he hasn't been given the confidence to handle the blackstar by the gfa is for nyantakyi Nicki Barnes to answer and for us the taxpayers to know!

  • EBO 9 years ago

    Avram Grant is ok

  • KK 9 years ago

    Kluivert is more suitable for the job; young, energetic, outspoken, charismatic, current, been there/done that, seen it all, rich and Ghanaian. LOL! We don't need any tired, old-school coaches.

    Get Kluivert in there to do ...

    Kluivert should be given the job no matter what. A top class footballer who understands the game. Above all, a black European

  • NIPANUA 9 years ago

  • Ndebugre 9 years ago

    This is going to be another big mistake.

    This Kluivert boy knows nothing about Ghana. He does not even know the name of a single player of the Black Stars.

    "I even shouldn't have responded? Why? We need people like u to educate the rest instead of many insults. Kluivert is the man for the job, young n being there than that

  • Africanus 9 years ago

    @Ndebugr... you are not making any sense... if Kluivert is not interested in the job why did he apply for it? What did Milo know about Ghana before he took up the job back in 2008?

  • Moi 9 years ago

    What did Appiah who knows everything about Gh, and the names of every single BS player do??...What has knowing names to do with anything??....Not saying he should be hired though

  • Pastor Forson, Italy 9 years ago

    Consider Marcel Desailly, he has won league titles,champions league and the World Cup, what at all is hindering him from this job moreover he is now residing in Ghana. He will pay tax and spend the money in Ghana.

  • Skains 9 years ago

    I'll also be happy to see Desailly apply for the coaching job; but, at present, he seems not to be interested. He hasn't applied for the job, and I personally don't know why.

  • Africanus 9 years ago

    In the past Desaily's interest in the job became too politicized... I guess that is why he is staying away from all that.

  • Ghfuo: jail Nyantakyi 9 years ago

    Nyantakyi simply is jealous of desailly. Plus desailly is not ready, nor prepared to entertain nyantakyi shenanigans and interference in hks coaching job. That is the real problem here. Like I've always said. Nyantakyi must g ...

    Kluivert was certainly a class player in his day but we don't know about his coaching pedigree. I advise caution here.

  • frwedd 9 years ago

    Please let us think seriously. He was a good player , but been a coach NO. It was Van Gaal who did the job. He is like Van basten , good player but a very bad coach, he has no experience.Don"t be fooled.Instead go after Rijka ...
