    BLAME RASHEED..BCUZ
    I'M TIRED OF HIM,,the drop in rating is good in other ways, in terms of seedings .

  • DIAMOND 7 years ago

    Nothing good in it.
    You will be seeded low and be matched against the higher - usually the tougher - seeds in tournaments.

    The goal should be to attain a high seeding so you can be matched against, comparatively speaking, ...

    There is a 25% chance to end up in Gabon's group as a pot 2 team. This would make us the defacto strongest team in the group because the other teams would be from pot 3 and pot 4. That might work out quite beautifully for G ...

    This confirms the case against Locals playing in Black Stars.

    All of them want to play overseas, so if they are good, why are they playing local?

    How many warnings did some of us not send out about this outcome before t ...

    One may think that the latest rankings of FIFA is nothing but it means a lot:
    1. Ghana Black Stars is in decline.
    2. Avram Grant is no coach. We thought Akwasi Appiah was not good and therefore we needed a top flight coach ...

    Akwasi Appiah is for me the best coach but he was not more the coach because he had said in Brazil (WM 2014) things against K.P. Boateng and Muntari, but he said only the truth. If u say things against a player from a team no ...

    Grnt does not prepare well for the team. All his decisions are spur of the moment. He needs a seasoned vet like aa as his deputy. Konadu is inexperienced and a yes man and won't help grant take risks especially on calling new ...

    Is there anything that did not drop under the corrupt John Mahama and Nyantakyi.

  • Thomas Black Star Abersfelder 7 years ago

    All politics corrupt, no matter J.D. Mahama or Nana Akufo-Addo or a other. Ghana is is a rich country but the politics makes my Ghana poor.

  • Mallam Issah Annex 7 years ago

    Where is STUPID Nii Lante Vaderpuye. Stupid talking men. You and your boss your days are numbered.

  • Kay Gee 7 years ago

    what has the ranking got to do with the minister? Hence, the insult, Mallam Issa.?Don't you know that is God who is using the minister to stop the lotting at the GFA?

  • SCHEMER 7 years ago

    Don't bring God in here Kay Gee. What are they looting and who has a clear evidence against any of them? Can you beat your chest and say Nyantakyi stole money? Why couldn't the government release the Dzamesi report? The bane ...

    Oh Ghana,why all this?. Youth and sports minister, you better warn yourself oooo.

  • Flicker 7 years ago

    Ghana need to get rid of the current team and start fresh

  • Anokwale 7 years ago

    If we are unseeded we might end up in the host's group. That could easily end up being the weakest group and in the most well equipped city, Libreville. Things happen for a reason.

  • $AINT GHFUO, BLACK EXCELLENCE! 7 years ago

    thanks for the insight. but should gh be playing these top 10 teams and making them pay?....

  • anokwale 7 years ago

    I think the key is to do well at AFCON. This is important for qualification seeding purposes. No matter what we do, the groups we get at AFCON or WC will never be easy. To me, the basic concept is that you need to score t ...

    I told from the beginning Ghana has lost its ideas because of bad and poor leader ship Ghana is going to be last in everything in Africa .

  • ben 7 years ago

    On the credit side,the Nyantakyi led FA, has qualified us, three times to the world cup. Who else have even done one? We should give the devil his due.

  • ROGUE LAWYER 7 years ago

    i think the co-efficient GFA would be satisfied for selling the ranks in their money friendlies instead of football

  • K Emma 7 years ago

    This tells us that every match no matter the circumstances is as important as the world cup final match. You cannot draw with Rwanda in your home and expect to rise in rankings. The influx of ideas from non- technical heads i ...

    We couldnt beat Rwanda at home. We lost to a hapless Russia. All because of the stupid rantings and jealousy of the Sports Minister. Nii, do you see what your morale reducing rantings have done to the team? Even in Africa we ...

    Avram Grant and Maxwell Konadu are most complecent trainers who think we're already qualified so a draw at home is enough, the same at AFCON 2015 we led 2-0 in the shootout against coted'Ivoir and two more goals we are w ...

    This is all because their work ethics are not good enough. Some are more dedicated to their clubs than the state. It depends on the team's psychologists to psyche and advise them about their expectations to the nation. Some o ...
