That's the hard question that needs to be answered first. No coach ever in Ghana has operated freely so it's probably going to be a no. So if he takes in the post he'll have to be well aware of the unnecessary inference.

Ghana’s Black Stars problems is not just coaching. The official and unofficial interference in player selections is too much. We also have problematic players and technical team. Dissolve the FA, punish the minister who superintendent over a rotten FA. Drop old, rusty, and selfish players. Dede is a non-starter! He’s old and weak. Jordan has mixed reviews. At the World Cup in Brazil, Ghana was at the brink of beating the eventual winner, Germany, but instead of a simple pass to Gyan to bury the ball, he decided to go solo and release a feeble shot. In the recent game against Egypt, at the peril of being dispossessed of a ball, he still refused to pass it to either Kudus or Inaki who were in positions to score. That selfishness eventually resulted in a goal against Ghana! Drop him from the square to spare Ghanaians the heartbreaks.

Dissolve sports ministry. Let the finance minister assume those duties. Secondly gfa have a mandate. They gave these mushroom clubs n must use their access to national teams to feed these clubs. How will this new coach deal with this headache? Gfa interference automatically weakened the strength of the national teams. Until this is done away with even ancelotti will go to tournaments n bomb! Because you can't use 11 players to win trophies. You need 23 starters

Gfa ready to sit him down in some dark room and tell him using their foolish Ghanaian english" masa, in gana here you have to include our agency players innyour squad or else it will be a problem" the coach will say " I don't understand what do you mean?" Okraku will say " Mada, you are new here..here in gana we do things differently. We all have clubs including myself and we have to make sure that our players get bstar callups so we can sell them at high prices to clubs so we too can get our share. So you have to include our players or else we will make life very difficult for you here" and even player of ours that's included in your team, we will give your 10 percent of the appearance fee bonus plus of the players secures a foreign contract you will also get another 20percent". So what greedy foreign coach won't agree to this? They came for money and now you have even made it better with such sweet mouth watering packages

Impeccable credentials! This begs the following three important questions: (1) How well is he familiar with our typical style of football? (2) Can he incorporate it into his coaching style? How soon can as he incorporate it into his coaching style? Our typical style of football is 'speed with power'. It's one of the reasons for our dominance in our 'good old days'. A good understanding of this, will quickly pave the way for the talents in the Ghana Premier League. This is mandatory! May Lord Almighty continue to bless our beloved Great Ghana: Amen!!!

He is a good coach, too authoritative I think for the GFA. No, he's not going to let GFA mingle in his decisions. But he might be too expensive for the GFA, in other words: GFA cannot pay him.

And where will he sxout for junior Ghanaian players to augment the senior team? Look, this shoukd be a matter if immediate urgency. It is imperative that gfa president and execs do not own or have any affiliations with clubs in this country bevause they will use the junior teams from u17, u20, meteors as breeding grounds for coach interference. All these youth teams will be filled with "their agency players" who are not good and the coach will have no option than to call them or rely on foreign born players OMG Gana soccer is doomed!

There will be no coach that could have changed anything in the final ten minutes. Magath will be close to 80 years old by now. Maybe. What I mean is that we don't need a coach from Europe. The best coach we can get is the Comoros Coach or else the Cape Verde coach. Forget about Kurt Okraku and choose Nyanteky again. Anas is the criminal in this case. Anas killed his small boy.

Because of the name Bayern, they shall go for him without thinking. Coaches like this, they are already rich and they can jeopardise your team and cost them nothing. Besides, it does not take 2 seconds for light skinned people to unite when they want to do operation. They are destroying Ghana strategically.

THE ONLY PERSON DESTIN TO DELIVER AND BRING THE CURSE TO NORMALCY IS aKWASI aPPIA.
IT IS NOT THE QUALITIES OF A COACH,
IT IS WHO IS BEEN APPOINTED AND HAS THE KEYS BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL TO OPEN THE DOORS OF GLORY.

GFA is only interested in syphoning our resources to themselves. Ghana have excellent players but because of politics and selfish interest of our leaders, the national teams have failed to the lowest degree. I think if politicians allow the technical team to do their work in the selection process without interference, black star will rise up again. During Otophisa's time where protocols interference were limited, Ghana Black Starlets performance in the World was excellent.

I just don't get it. If the officials at GFA are the ones dictating who should play and who not to play, then why will there go length and breath to acquire a coach for the national team? The coach and his staff should have absolute control in choosing who should play for the team after putting in practices and has accessed the capabilities of each player based on his performances at practice. And so the officials at GFA should give the coaching staff free hands to do their job otherwise we will continue to have the same disastrous results all the time.
