   We should pay no ear to this attention seeker. As already adviced. A.A should put the boys through high intensity running excercises to boost their fitness levels. Great cardiac fitness is the magic way. ONLY WAY WE CAN WIN AFCON IS IF WE PLAY SWIFT ATTACKING FOOTBALL AND PLAY AT HIGH INTENSITY RUNNING FOR THE WHOLE 90 MINS. NO LOSS OF CONCENTRATION, NO TIRED PLAYERS. AFCON NO BE CHILDS PLAY. IT IS INTENSE!

   Running for the whole 90 minutes? You Living Room Coaches are big jokers. It is clear you only make noise here and don’t really know what you talk about. The coaches know better than you folks. The show off must stop now.

     watch it man! have you seen the way zambia play? without any talent they could win afcon because of the fitness levels
     of katongo and the rest. Ghana has all the talent and skill but we get outrun by a buch of hardworkers. What if we match them on fitness level, who will carry the day?
     You refuse to think my friend. Ghana used to always slow down the game which works against european teams buh often fails against some hardworking and aggressive African teams. We won the game against Egypt and Tunisia because A.A has noticed this and has put the lads through tough excercises. I am only encouraging him to continue so we wim the cup whereas u obviously an empty head is calling me a joker???

       I am calling for quick offensive play so that “hard working” teams like zambia are not given the chance to RUN back and defend like they always do before our strikers even shoot.

   This coach is full of excuses. He’s the same one who said Ghana stadium is the worse one he had ever seen as the grasses were too long.Now is Congo’s turn

     I wasn’t the best of his fans when he was coaching the B.S. I particularly didn’t appreciate the way he chose to prepare the semis against Cameroon. Ghana was depending too much on the Essien/Muntari duo, which was the main boost to the team’s attacking fervor. Having being deprived from John Mensah’s servives for this match, he was left with the tough task to find a replacer. But, instead of bringing in someone off the bench, he opted to split the duo, placing Essien in the centre of defense. This, not only entangled the team’s function, but also gave two clear messages, one to each team. The message to the B.S. was that not all the players were to be trusted(and therefore the team itself), whilst the one to Cameroon was that Ghana feared them, especially Eto’o. And Cameroon, was by no means a better team than Ghana back then. The rest is history. Muntari was left isolated on midfield, posing no threat to the opponent and Eto’o passed the decisive assist through a bewildered Essien, for his teammate(i don’t recall the scorer’s name) to score the lone goal. Other than that, i think most people agree that this is a well respected coach in the whole continent, having won the trophy and being regarded as a mentor by many of his counterparts(Renard being one of them). And i’m to think that he wasn’t wrong about the lawn in the Accra stadium. This pitch looked like a pasture I never blamed him for this statement.
