    Akwasi Appiah, i hope you are watching Essien, Kevin & Muntari. Don’t come & tell Ghanaians stories when you fail to select the required player who can qualify for the worldcup-2014.

    hello bro i think u are right, but ghanaian prayers are not like other coutries prayers.like ivory coast prayers, they have everthing in life except Christ but in every tournament they are all present they love their country,i wish ghanian prayers should emulate that.they need to reform because very soon there will be no football in ghana again so as to get our peace and the management should do the right thing as well.when they see the new prayer they betrayed the old ones why?always new team.droping Ayew droping john mensah.and quiancy abeyie shuold”ve be better than some of the prayer which went to just ended afcon 2013 thanks

    @samedge7 I am not in defence of the coach first off. However when I see comments like yours I feel I have to talk. You say essien and kevin are playing well FINE. But then you say you hope AA is watching, what do you mean, how do you expect him to keep calling these guys yet they don’t want to play. So it makes me think you are just saying Kwasi Appiah’s name for the sake of it, not needed. We should only focus and select players who want and love the country. As much as I would love KPB it is actually becoming annoying that he feels he can just shut ghana down whenever he wants. We are a country of history, leaders of Africa and no man should EVER feel he can play with us like he has.

    Also I have to mention the Ayews, In reference to Jordan yes he has played beeter this season and yes he can feel hard done by for not being selected but does that mean he should retire (temporaily as he said). the answer is NO, only Ghana he can do it to and get away with it and rather ppl insult the coach for it you see life. And in terms of my namesake Andre, the way he plays for Ghana we would all agree that he plays with his heart. But now I’m beggininng to question if his love for Ghana is as strong as I first believed, whatever your differences with the coach etc is you love for the nation that made you a star, a neation that got you your place at marseille when they didnt even want you and was sending you to division 2 teams, is that nation GHANA not big enough for you to overcome your issues with the boss and come and fight for us. Looks like the answer is NO sadly.

    So guys open your eyes and let us stop mentioning these names as the way we love them it clearly is not the same. Rather when we need everyone together for us to overcome Zambia in our world cup group they both retire, now if I had an issue with the management and loved my country I would go and resolve it face to face to make sure I’m there to fight for the nation the people I love rather than choose to stay away watch them suffer and not make the world cup, then return and gloat that becasue I wasnt there and the coach is why you didnt make it.

    The prodigal son Muntari I have faith in you and you are an example and I pray you can carry us to the world cup.

    ps It will never make sense to me that Gyan is captain and muntari will be walking behind him but hey let me not cry over spilt milk, good luck GH Blackstars

  5. GH BOY says:

    @Andre…God bless you and your unborns,may you live to be continually proud of your Ghana and may ur knowledge increase by tick of every second….wise speech brova,bless you any day..

  6. Andre says:

    thanx @gh boy made me smile with that, God bless you also bro

  7. GHFUO, BE SERIOUS NOT PRIDEFUL! says:

    GO AND FIND YOURSELF A GH BROAD TO DRIVE U AROUND IN SPAIN. DONT U KNOW ITS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE? DRIVING ALONE HAS KILLED MORE PPL THAN CANCER. WOMEN ARE BETTER DRIVER THAN MEN. FIND YOURSELF A NICE GH WOMAN IN SPAIN AND LET HER DRIVE YOU. OR GET A MOTORCYCLE

  8. Samedge7 says:

    @Andre,We should only focus on & select players who want &love the country like those he selected & caused us more harm than good by winning us 4th position right? Anyway, thanks for contribution!

  9. Dr Who says:

    It takes determination,commitment and teamwork to win AFCON.Not names!Some of you think winning AFCON is easy eh? Why did all those Serbian coaches qualified us to the WC but were unable to win AFCON? Give AA a break!

  10. PROF says:

    @Agyengo do u mean Ghanaian Players or Prayers, checkyour R and ur L.
