Solar Ayew, uncle of Jordan Ayew and Dede Ayew has insisted that every football team need an undisciplined player to drive the team forward.

The junior brother three-time Africa player of the year award winner, Abedi Pele who been talking since the Ayew brothers were snubbed from the Black Stars since last year’s 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Congo Brazzaville believes every top-notch coach must be able to manage a player like that but you don’t snub him.

“Most of the renowned players today are indisciplined and you cannot stop it,” he told Asempa FM.

“You can talk about the likes of Maradona, Shamo Quaye and other people but they always bring results.

“When you tell a player to come to training at 14:00GMT and comes late, you don’t sack the player but you manage the player.

“We the Ayew family are like that and during the playing days of Abedi Pele, two days before a match he will not talk to any player and that has been his secret,” he added.
