   EVERYONE SHOULD LIFT METAL LIKE AKAMINKO. AA, THIS IS GOING TO BE A DISCIPLINED AND PHYSICAL TOURNAMNT. I DONT BELIEVE IN NO WEAK PLAYERS. MAKE SURE THE PLAYERS ARE INCORPORATING METAL LIFTING INTO THEIR GAME. THE GAME HAS CHANGED FROM WAT IT USED TO BE IN YOUR TIME. LOOK AT AKAMINKO? HW3, THE ZAMBIANS, NAIJA AND IVORIANS PLAYERS WILL ALL BE LIFTING METAL. WHY ARE U LOOSING GUARD? U HAVE SEEN THE FIRST 2 GAMES AND HOW PHYSICAL IT HAS BEEN. SOMETIMES, WHEN PPL TALK, FOOLS JUST BRUSH THINGS ASIDE. WE NEED EVERY LITTLE EDGE WE CAN GET. I DONT WANNA HEAR NYAME B3 Y3 BIAA FOR DERE. NYAME HAS ALREADY Y3 THE TING. IF U DONT LIFT METAL, AND U MAKE LIKE BROOM. HOW DO U EXPECT TO BE POWERFUL?

   Coach Appiah remember every attack leaves you vulnerable to the counter attack so I hope Ghana is not going out there to play entertaining soccer. Leroy is a wily fox and must not be underestimated. The Black Stars must stay disciplined and play a defensive game. Play beautiful soccer to create chances and capitalize on DR Congo’s mistakes. There are enough quality players on the Black Stars team Coach Appiah must start the best 11 and they must play as a unit with the ball on the grass stringing out crisp passes. The dribblers must weave their magic to draw out the defense then unleash the strikers then the goals will flow. Once the ball is lost everyone must fall back on a defensive position to help recover the ball and be ready for the wave of attack.

     Insightful and valuable advise right there, but unfortunately Akwasi Appiah will not need it. He has been doing exactly what you suggested, that’s the more reason why we have scored seven goals in two matches and that includes set-pieces.

       TT, THIS IS A CLEAN SLATE. WE PLAYED EGYPT WHO DIDNT QUALIFY TO AFCON. THEY HAVE ALSO SUSPENDED THEIR LEAGUE FOR SOMETIME. NATURALLY, THIS MAKES THE NATIONAL TEAM PLAYERS RUSTY, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE AHLY PLAYERS WHO ARE COMPETING IN THE CHAMPS LEAGUE. TUNISIA QUALIFIED FOR THIS TOURNAMNT, SO NATURALLY U DONT EXPECT THEM TO GIVE 100 IN A FRIENDLY GAME. IF I WERE YOU AND THE PLAYERS. I WOULD FORGET ABOUT THOSE 2 INSIGNIFICANT FRIENDLY GAMES. THE SERIOUSNESS, ALL DIE BE DIE STARTS NOW!

   Hahaha dude seriously you cracked me. If you want to Help AA send your CV to GFA and join the technical team. Your incessant pasting of your “Metal Lifting etc” is only limited here no one takes them serious. But as u are serious u can do the Above. Send your CV.

    @GH FUO,Its good to note that the real deal starts now but dont rubbish our wins against Egypt & Tunisia.Would you have said so if we had lost those games? You will be the first person to question AA competence and the readiness of our team.Give credit to the stars for winning those matches rather that finding excuses and reasons for our opponents who indeed came to win.Secondly,Black Stars will hammer DR Congo 1-0.
