I can understand AB because he didn't see Sunday play. Essie was not even made Africa No. 1. "Small boys are young"

you (Badu) are shit. Just play football and let observers who have had the privilege to follow football since 1957 make the call. You only know one era of the history to justify such a grand pronouncement

see aa egotistical. no wonder he ailed. when u get emotional u will fail....i saw essien play at the highest pinnacle in soccer n he redemmed himself n the Ghana's image everytime he stepped on the field. the best gh player in my opinion. he can tacle, score, defend, shoot...omg....imagine if other countries had him as theirs. then again this is gh. blessed with gold, diemond, oil etc but go n see the country....smh...IF GERMANY OR FRANCE HAD ESSIEN OMG...LOOK AT JEROME BOATENG SEF. WE GHPPL DONT KNOW HOW TO CHERISH OR TAKE CARE OF ANYTHING. WE SHOULD THINK AS BUILDERS N PROTE TORS NOT PETTY DESTROYERS. DESTROYING I EASY. BUILDING N PROTECTING TAKES SO MUCH EFFORT....N SOME FOOL WILL NAME THELSELVES OSEI?....SPOILER, DESTROYER?...SMH

Against his choice. I might have my choice, and expect him to respect that, though, I like Essien. Abedi pele had his days. I am yet to see DeDe Ayew over his age 30. Right now, he has u20 world cup in his belt, if we are talking about international exposures. Either than that, ball on your feet, and the intelligent decisions ensue in soccer brilliancy, Essien, might be far away. I can count myself better than him, with no professional experience. Rasak, Francis Kumi, papa arko midfield command, sunday midfield distributions, Opoku Afriyie beyie touches and results, mama acquare sneaky finishes, Peter ochere ball movements. All of them had some peculiarities, that made them thick.

Who did not played proofessional soccer, could had been better than all of these. Atta beyie of Okess high school, and kwabena adjei living at wesley college area for defense. Trust me Ghana have good players not playing professional soccer. Look for them. Some people need push to come out.

When did Essien become a player? You probably belong to the millenial generation so can pardon your lack of knowledge of Ghana football. Essien is nowhere near the Robert Mensah, Mfums, Mingles, Addo Odameteys, Razaks, Polos, etc. Except these greats never had the opportunities that present crop of footballers haver. In the golden days, football was of natural skills, not technological skills.

Does this boy know what it takes to be African footballer of the year? We have three in Ghana and none of them is called Essien. I rest my case.

Choosing the best player in Ghana soccer history is like choosing the best kenkey maker in the country. Needless to say it is very difficult and it all depends on who is doing the choosing. The "Bison" is a fantastic player and one of the greatest to play for the country. However, my favorite of all is Osei Kofi.

Yes they can read; the question is "Who is the greatest Ghanaian player", not who is the best player Badu played with. So maybe you and Badu need to work on your reading/comprehension skills.

Excellent player...I think he played for Akotex not Hearts...but coming back to the point, I don't think he is close to being "The greatest Ghanaian player" though.

This declaration is complete nonsense. How many of the old players has he ever seen. He is talking like that young, loud-mouthed NDC Ablakwah.

Badu was probably too young or not born to see some of them in action so his selection of Essien is understandable but skewed.
