Armando: Black Stars lack quality players

Former Black Stars striker Baba Adamu Armando has questioned the quality of players invited to play in the senior national team of Ghana and has described these players as ordinary players.
According to the former All Blacks and Kotoko Striker, comparing the eras of abdul Razak, Odartey Lamptey, Abedi Pele, Osei Kofi and he himself these current crop of players in the team have no exceptional talent apart from the excluded Dede Ayew.
"Counting from the captain Asamoah Gyan to the last player in the team now, there is no gifted or quality player like those former greats I mentioned.The current boys in no way can ever win us the trophy we are all praying for them, because they are too ordinary,” he said.
The 33-year-old Armnando is yet to make an official appearance for his current club side Berekum Chelsea due to injuries.
The skillful striker-who was nicknamed after Argentina legend Diego Maradona will leave the country very soon to continue professional footballing outside since he has offers on his table.
