P. Djamgbe. You are wrong. Prince Polly is right about Abedi’s behavior in camp.I admire Abedi a lot on the field, but his character is something a lot of people complain about. Unlike Stephen Appiah.

Lets stop playing Monday Morning coaches, team managers and locker room colleagues for those boys. Their time came and went, but if you ask any two of them, they will tell you different stories. Even in our not long ago heartbreaking Asamoah Gyan penalty miss against Uruguay, he claims the colleagues are cowards that is why none of them stepped up to take it. That claim was instantly thrown out the door by Sulley Muntari, a core member of the team!

In Ghana it's all well and good for other tribes to bastardise,insult,make all sorts of allegations against akans especially ASHANTIS but a word against a northerner,an ewe is tribalistic.Why oh why are these people holding such beliefs allowing themselves to suffer from such inferiority complexity syndrome?

He did. Otito oro ni!
The African Footballer of the Year award was created and originated by ''France Football'' magazine since 1970, and they organized and managed the awards successfully and creditably until CAF came in in 1993 and started manipulating the awards by giving it to the highest bidder.
All the credible award organizers named Abedi as the African Footballer of the Year 1993 after he won the Champions Leaque with Marseille.
CAF had to manipulate it and gave it to Rasheed Yekinni who could not live up to the reputation and messed up at USA 94.

The award has lost its glory since CAF started using politics to give it to some undeserving players e.g. Hadji Diouf in 1999/2000 when Sammy Kuffour was the best player in that year

This Appiah/Abedi/ Yeboah issue should stop. The man put our name up there. Brought a lot of smiles since age 16 years only to become captain around age 27years and you these people think its okay to say negative about him. what I he belief in is the discipline. He never came to training with a hat or went to smoke marijuana or womanized. Yet because he disliked all these some of you of a particular language spoke what to say negative things about him. You are a very stupid fool to join theses nonsense. Give him his due respect and stop fooling.

Those of calling Prince Bigot should carefully pay attention to your statements and you will see the real Bigot is. He didn't say anything to warrant this insult. He criticized his leadership style which I see nothing wrong with that, because not everyone was born a leader. He again said his introverted nature was an issue and what is wrong with that also? We all know Abedi is an introvert and that's not an insult or attack. You people that think Bedi is some kind of saint have serious issues.

That’s why you have to keep the captains armband far away from Kudus, Jordan and other introverted players on the team. Otto Addo is a joke of a coach . You cannot look at Jordan or Kudus and say their are captain material. Kudus for wacample is extremely introverted and likes to hang out with only his Muslim friends like Fatawu and Kamal Deen and some of his Right to Dream friends. He’s not a unifier and yet Otto Addo thought he was a leader.. sad the team is in the gutter as long as we keep hiring the same people who keep making the same mistakes . They have no charisma even Partey is not a leader and does not appear to be one. You can see on the pitch who is a leader. Someone like Djiku should be a the captain. Captain should not be about whoever has been on the team the longest it’s about personality and ability to be a leader not seniority . You expect Otto someone who spent majorly of his life in Germany to know this but he kept making stupid mistakes and acting like he grew up in Kukrantumi.

If the players had an issue, it was with the coach who skipped Tony Yeboah after taking the captaincy from Appiah and giving it to Pele, and gave it to newcomer Tony Baffoe. These things had nothing to do with the players tribes.

Appiah as a coach took the captaincy from Asamoah Gyan and gave it to Ayew. Tribalists, me de kuku, stop seeing everything as tribal.

As a neutral , everyone will agree that Abedi era had great players than Appiah 's era. But why did the team did so well in Appiah's time than Abedi's time. Due to the leadership of the team and the managers that time Fred Pappoe and co. Appiah said, l am the captain but we all know the real Captains are Essien, Muntari, John Mensah and Laryea Kingston. Appiah deliberately did that to win the big players to his side. And anybody who has been a leader understands to get the best that's the way to go. Abedi should have done everything to get Tony Yeboah on his side. We should not forget what the Fred Pappoes did behind the scenes .

Massa, total bullshit from Prince Polley. Abedi was a world class super star who performed to the highest level in every match for the black stars. It was up to those around him to raise their level to match him. How come when he was suspended for the final in 92, you guys couldn’t win the cup without him. That would have prove to everyone that the rest of you were good. As for his character, all champion players have that arrogance in them. Maradona, and Ronaldo are examples.
As for Roy Keane when he was captain, he didn’t even talk to his teammates after games. He had no friend in the team. He talked with them on the pitch only. But they won all the trophies without him as captain. Prince Polley, the rest of you guys were crap. Accept it, boy. Abedi was a mega star playing with ordinary players

If you want to talk about sacrificing for the nation, rule Abadi Ayu out because he played for his glories not the team's. He saw himself as a god those days because of the hype and wanted to ride in the shoes of Maradonna and Pele (the original from Brazil) contributing to his arrogance. Ask yourself why a top notch team with the likes of Tony Baffoe, Kwasi James Appiah, top striker Yeboah including Abedi Ayu himself failed to win the Afcon92? All because of his arrogance and selfish leadership style like Polley is saying. Most of you talking nonsense against Polley who was part of the team were not born or not even matured enough to know what went on but are here insulting someone who was his teammate. Given the chance, most of the other players would say the same things but they would prefer not to speak up because it's a dead news. Abedi Ayu was only dedicated to himself. That's the truth.

Who was a the good captain.Steve had no competitor from the other side. They will have done the same. Besides the fact that he goes by Appiah these fools will always give him credit. Have anyone fault C.K Akonnor? I BET you these haters of Abedi are sick . Can they tell me what Abedi did to anyone? For the change of captainship in that friendly much it is only nkwasifuo who don't understand how things work. Yeboah was given the captainship because Abedi was late in arriving. The normal thing that that is done is what happen. upon the arrival of the greatest footballer, No one need to tell Yeboah what to do. Mbelefuo. I believe even in and other teams the moment the general captain comes on the field of play during the game whoever is wearing the captain band switch immediately to the general captain and you stupid fools are here saying the match was almost about to begin and so what ? TAKE YOUR WONII SENSELESS ralk away. Foolish Polley.So many has captain the Black Stars no problem but the moment it got to Abedi turn these fools continue to talk about 30years issue which the nation never won nothing. Fools lets us have our peace of mind.

I don't think you are seeing the facts now. Imagine someone on the field of play and another person comes to the pitch to take over the captains band
