Stephen Appiah wants Laryea back in stars

Immediate past captain of the Black stars Stephen Appiah wants to see Hearts of Oak midfielder Laryea Kingson included in the current squad of the senior national team playing the World Cup Qualifiers for Brazil 2014.
The experienced captain has cautioned the usage of entirely new faces in playing the qualifiers without experience ones such as Laryea Kingson.
“The young ones in the team are doing their best but Laryea’s experience supersedes most of them. My combination with Laryea in my hay days saw the team having a fantastic midfield. You can see that he still has the skills, he works very hard and he is a technical player. Despite his age he plays well. Am very happy anytime I see him play and will be grateful to see him in the team,” he told JOY Sports
Appiah retired from international football just after the 2010 World Cup, having led Ghana to two impressive World Cup outings following their debut in 2006.
