    Let's talk about the players as well, now that the coach has been kicked out. The Ayew brothers are old and cannot deliver so they have to be replaced with young players. We've seen enough of them and it's about time they go.

    The problem with the blackstars not winning is the endemic corruption by senior officials and nothing to do with the coach. Officials extort so much money from players.

    Not firing the coach alone. The entire GFA must be dissolved. The corruption out there is just too much. The sports minister must also go including the mother serpent himself. Black stars must be banned for 5 years.

    While the GFA boss is sacking others, he should be ready to also resign. The boss has no moral right to fire people. Corruption is too much.
