   ooohhh Polo… you time has past, although you are right that some of them enjoy the money too much – you are becoming boring with constant comments landing on unlistening ears!

   Great player but not great talking about the game

   REVOLUTION !!! u r spot on , right on point and has hit the nail right on the head. Sam of em hav bcam too egoistic dat they give their boots 2 d junior playerz to wash. They even fight wit em in a normal challenge at training and term em as ‘disrepectful’ for speaking their mind. S’me of em hav bcam too blotted dat they’ve lost focus on the game- They choose 2 model instead of run. They choose 2 blame instead of FLAME. If Every player is to pull his pants down for scoring a goal, den i wonder how d likes of KLOSE,RONALDO,ETO’O and GOMEZ wld look. I bet they wld not hav their pants on at all… The mentality of some of our Stars is sickening. This Animadvert must Stop!

   Old glory, Polo, get over your ego and do something concrete with what God has blessed you with. You seem to hate evrybody or anything that doesn’t go your way, why? Please if you cant do anything tangible, spare us your vitiorics

   i vividly agreed with polo 100 percent mr.polo some of the players are too arrogant and over-hyped ,look at the way they dress and chasing ladies like dogs.that is why injuries kept on disturbing them.the sex and the alcohol are too much.

   I agree with some of the comments of M.Polo, but the mosque concepts is completely out of context. There is no correlation between mosque and football.

   I respect POLO a lot but I think this comment is uncalled for. People like him should understand that in his days it took only a bunch of skillful players to win a tourney. These days, football is not about the skill of the players but about the capacity of the coach to man manage the players in addition to deploying them tactfully on the field. Jose Morinho sums it all, tactical acumen and more importantly, ability to manage the players. POLO should wake up and realise football has changed a lot from his days. If he’s team should have been playing now the way they did, they will always be losers. He should know that football is now a full time professional career for most players. That has obviously changed the mindset of current generation of players. Good coaches have learnt this fact and get trained accordingly to handle the more dynamics of the game. These players are not LUCKY as he claims, they are just in business.

   Us Ghanaians really overate respect. Every old person wants young ones to bow to them because they are older. Respect has really held us back from growing and this is the mentality Polo holds on to. Just because someone is experienced doesn’t mean he should be selected before a better player. Just because someone has been on the team for a long time doesn’t bean he should continue to stay even though he is too old to play… Anyway, enough about my rant. What people do in their spare time is none of anyone’s business. As much as Polo hates to hear this, football is work. Nobody’s boss judges whether they go to the bar in their spare time or who they have sex with. It is really the worker’s private matter.

   On a tangential note, appointing Polo would have been detrimental to the Stars because he would go for “pious” or moral players instead of good players when we both know that morality has nothing to do with being able to play football.

   Also, if Polo’s black stars were so good, how come not many of them played on the international stage. How many world cup appearances did Polo’s team make? What was their world soccer ranking at their peak? Pleaaase!!

   I agree with Polo not because he built a mosque instead of a night club. I watched the AFCON games and I saw Black Stars players with their shorts hanging so low you could see their underwear. To me when you represent your country you have to show class, and you have to show dignity and respect no matter how much money you have in the bank. This lack of discipline creeps into the game and causes good players to lose concentration and focus. I hope Coach Appiah is able to bring dignity and class to his Black Stars.

    polo,like someone already said get over your ego,it was the same thing you were doing during your playing days, this guys dont know you, they cant remember your playing days, they are not from new town or pig farm,it is not their fault to be disrespectful, it is common with all spots men,when their days are over, like yours is and you are begging for respect it will hit them, but i still challenge you to take over a division team and bring the to premier and proof your worth in coaching, cos you talk to much.

    Polo is right. Very right. Charity begins at home! Maybe its a cultural issue. Are we really raising our kids properly?
