Black Stars players have no respect for local coaches - Joseph Langabel

Long-standing entertainer of the Black Stars Joseph Langabel claims local coaches lose the dressing room because players simply disrespect the ‘black man’ and does not see an end in sight to the thorny issue. 

Kwesi Appiah was fired two weeks ago despite guiding the team to pick four points from six in the qualifiers for the 2015 African Cup of Nations.

The ex-Kotoko trainer was accused of losing the dressing room which led to the country’s disastrous 2014 World Cup campaign in Brazil.

Langabel, who has been an avid follower of the team over the past two decades,  feels local coaches will continue to struggle to win the respect of the players.

"The blacks stars players don't respect the black .Our black coaches have a fair attitude towards the players and that relationship has led to the players taking them for granted.A white coach will deal with them if they misbehave" he told Hello FM in Kumasi

"Kwasi appiah is a gentleman but the players do not like that just like Ghanaians do not like easy things. When Ghana was ran by military men look at how we behaved,everybody was at their most respectful,it is the same with the white coaches".

Ghana is hunting for a new trainer to replace Kwesi Appiah with reports suggesting Dutchma Patrick Kluivert could land the job.
