    Coach Grant, Ghana Black Star cannot win Afcon with the current goal-keeper Razak Braimah. Open the gate for competition else, 2017 Afcon is going to be another fiasco.

    Haaa bench warmers Black Star.

  • Nurudeen 7 years ago

    lnstead of talking to his dick head GFA president to urge the ministry to improve infrastructure.. all they think of is winning bonuses.. now they've come to realise big bonuses alone dont guarantee good results.

  • Stinky Finger 7 years ago

  • malata 7 years ago

    His foot work is terrible - he can hardly kick the ball, so no help with lead-up play. Guardiola would have cut him to pieces.

  • Emperor Rasheed 7 years ago

    This is what I have been shouting from rooftop all along. Grant is lazy and wimpish. He keeps on inviting players who are even inactive, provided they once featured for him. How can Razak, a second division player, be field ...

    This is a pure flimsy excuse Mr Grant, I'll suggest you work on your team careful because playing and winning the nation cup is a no joke.

  • Tony Addo 7 years ago

    No wonder Hearts are struggling to win a game at the Accra sports stadium. I am not in any way attributing the state of the pitch as the only reason for their form in Accra guys.

    The Accra Stadium is now a church. From the field to the Gym are all used for church activities to the detriment of the facilities.
