Were those 2 fools not in the National team just last year? Why did they not bring home the AFCON CUP? What has changed in 1013 ? You same idiots keep on praising Kwesi Appiah for bringing Atsu, Wakasso and Fatau Dauda. Where would we put them if Inkoom, Adiyia, John Mensah and Olele were not removed?

Those who should be retiring now are Akwasi Appiah and Nyantakyi. Because they have nothing to offer this country. But they will rather sit there and collect bribes from useless players and drop good players who will not bribe them. BTW, Keeping Gyan in the team beats my imagination. SMH!!! BLACK STARS WILL ACHIEVE NOTHING TILL THIS INCOMPETENT COACH AND HIS NYANTAKYI ARE GONE.

Are you trying to tell me that C.ro or Messi or Rooney, Radamel Falcao, etc just name them, are not making a difference in their respective clubs? Yet they don't always win tropheys but does not mean they are not needed. Sometimes I read some of your responses on here and wonder whether it's because you are in Ghana and have little opportunity to watch league matches. Do have know of the Ayew's performances at Marseille? Did you watch their match agains't PSG? Dede was awesome though they lost and it happens. why do you think many clubs are after his signature? Talk of the under20 worldcup. He, being captain, achieved what many have failed to from Abedi Pele to Tornado Appiah. He was an excellent captain. why do you think recently he is being nominated for the African player award? The Ayews are part of the future for Ghana football and only a fool will disagree.Only a dumb coach will axe his future stars, look at Nigeria, where was obafemi martin? what about Cote D'Ivoire, how often was Drogba subbed and yet be is a far better and achieved striker than Gyan who was over relied on. What has Gyan achieved all these years? You will say he has scored the highest goals for Ghana, but if you average the number of games he has played to the goals he has scored, Mubarak even has a better average than him. Look, I don't want to believe you are an uneducated fool, so really think through your arguments before presenting them here.

Slimzee, that was blunt.... That is why I stopped commenting here. Looks like folks don't think. Lets try this by going to the WC with the CAN 2013 players. Dede and Jordan, have a right to whatever choices they want to make. I have always been an advocate for foreign coaches because our coaches lack the cutting edge and our commentators lack argumentative ideas. To play for the Black Stars has been made to look like its a favour, but its based on merit and you must keep your mouth shut regardless... I will tell you that if we go to the WC with the current players used CAN, we will disgraced and trashed very well. Lets try it

Acheampong,
Your article to my knowledge was well written but it looks as if you have some bitterness towards Abedi and you are taking it out on these two young boys making their own decisions, its very different

There is a problem in the black stars, a big problem. This is what I thought you would have veered off towards in an effort to fix it. All the Ghanaian players are not committed and see all Ghana games as a way to sell their stock to the highest buyer watching and not to win games for mother Ghana. When I watched the games on ESPN3, i saw lackluster performances by our players and most of them seem like they didn't want to be there and we need to work on that in order to have players who wants to die for the country

This problem of players retiring because they are not happy started a long time ago. Osei Kuffuor did did it at his peak while with Bayern, Baba Armando did, Essien did it, Asamoah Gyan did it etc. I agree with you that the GFA is weak and does not have the respect of the players because the players know something that we don't know but can't make it public for obvious reasons. As long as Ghana stay depended on the government, there will always be problem in the team who does not depend on their finances but rely on outsiders to provide funding for their games. We are paying them but they do not deliver.

Every time the AFCON is going to be played, that's when Ghana is supposed to win the cup since 1992 but we never do. May be we should learn from the Nigerian who won the cup three times since the last time Ghana won it in 1982. The Nigerian won it with no expectations whatsoever. Going to this AFCON, I knew this team was not strong, even if the Ayews were included, but every Ghanaian as always was too sure of this being the year for us. There is something missing in the Black Stars from the management to the government to the playing body and that's called PATRIOTISM

GFA SHOULD BEAR IT IN MIND THAT GHANA BLACK STAR TEAM IS JUST LIKE A POLITICAL PARTY WHEREBY THE HEART AND MINDS OF PEOPLE ARE DEEPLY ROOTED INTO IT.FIFA PRESIDENT SEPP BLATTER ONCE SAID "I WOULD USED SOCCER TO UNIT THE WORLD".AS SUCH, THE GFA SHOULD WORK ON A PARTICULAR GOAL WHICH WILL BE IN THE INTEREST OF GHANIANS.BUT WHAT ARE WE SEEING? EVERY ONE IS STRUGGLING FOR POSITION IN THE TOP HIERARCHY. WHY SHOULD THE TEAM BE POLITICIZED TO THIS EXTEND? PEOPLE OF GHANA, IS IT NOT SO CLEAR THAT OUR MOST CHERISHED TEAM HAS BEEN POLITICIZED IN RESPECT OF SELECTING PLAYERS, WHEREBY BRIBERY IS THE ORDER OF THE DAY? WHY SHOULD THE GOOD PLAYERS BE SIDELINED IN THE NAME OF POLITICS AND BRIBERY? I AM NOT A SOCCER FUN, BUT JUST LIKE ANY ORDINARY SPECTATOR CAN OBSERVED A FAULT ON THE FIELD OF PLAY, SO CAN ANY ORDINARY PERSON CAN NAME AND MENTION ALL THE LAPSES ON THE SIDE OF GFA.LET US CRITICALLY EXAMINE THIS CRITICALLY,WHY SHOULD APPIAH NOT VERY SURE OF DEDE'S HEALTH, NAMED HIM AMONG THE SQUAD IN THE FIRST PLACE? ARE YOU SURE DEDE IS AN INDECIPLINE CHILD OF OUR SOIL? AFTER ALL THE DEDES ARE MAKING GOOD MONEY IN THE BIG TEAMS AND I RESPECT THEM SO MUCH FOR THEIR DECISION BECAUSE GFA HAS NO GOOD INTENTION FOR GHANA. THEY SHOULD LEARN TO WORK TOWARDS THE GOALS OF FIFA PRESIDENT BLATTER AND ELIMINATE HYPOCRISY, BRIBERY,FAVORITISM, NEPOTISM AND THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER. THEY SHOULD ALSO TRY HARD TO FIX A SQUARE PEG IN A SQUARE HOLE.

Owoahene or whatever you call yourself. It beats my imagination that you've spent your time making stupid arguement in your write up. Management 101 will teach you that one of the main responsibilities of being in a management position is to try and creat an environment that will be condusive enough to enable optimal performance from your team. Ask yourself, is that what Kwasi Appiah and the black stars management have done in the past few months that appiah has been the coach.
I do understand that the black stars is definately bigger than any individual person but the cream of the football crop in every generation makes up the black stars irrespective of tribe, social affiliations or what ever bad blood that have existed between their ancestors.
Kwasi Appiah must go not KPB,Muntari, Essien or any of the Ayew brothers.
It was appiahs decision and indecision that broke the heart of ghanaians in the just ended afcon tournament. Kwasi must go.....
