It is not true, or is it because he plays for Chelsea. The stage of the national team particularly the Black Stars is different. Bring him here and he will just be an ordinary player. We have been doing this for a while and ...

While I will like the GFA to cap tie Acheampong to BS for the future, he lacks the experience of both Djiku and Salisu. Inaki and Semenyo may fly high in Europe but in BS shirt Jordan is more valuable.
It's complex eh? We should be careful how we underrate our team. I can imagine that Chelsea will not even encourage him to join the BS.
Such a stupid man, no wonder he manages drip machines
If an old man speaks like this, how can he manage his home? You committed children goes out to bring you food then you look at their faces and tell them that the younger one who has never went for food for you is better in br ...

Oh ex-minister, couch your words a bit: he may be good but you have to respect these two defenders. A more sensible person could have said:’Well our defenders have done extremely well but this chap is also good - he’s phe ...

@ Ethical Dilemma: You`re spot on. The Ex-Minister needs to improve on his communication skills.
Djiku and others have richer experience at the back compared to Josh, though Josh may add some depth to our backline.
A more sensible person indeed !! Thank you for using that word' a more sensible'
That is a foolish comment coming naturally from an imbecile who once represented a constituency
Where was J.Acheampong when Ghana Black Star ...

Nii Lante should be ashamed of himself for being so infantile.
Nii Nantwie Banzapuye. We would have still considered this guy someone with a bit of wisdom and fit for this job if he kept his words to himself. If you can't keep quiet, at least be sensible and prudent in your delivery in o ...

What a stupid childish former minister with such uncalculated utterance. So with the hard work that Dziku and salisu put into the Black Stars matches, how would they take such trashy comments from an old man who is supposed t ...

Let's stop this foolish public relations gimmicks for foreign born Ghanaian players. They are just not patriotic enough
Josh Acheampong is versatile player: can play as a center-back or right-back, and has recently broken into the first team, earning praise for his composure, defensive skills, and ability to drive forward with the ball. He rec ...

Stop the nonsense. Do you know how to even lace a football boot? At least, they stood firm for mother Ghana.
Acheampong would add to our depth though
Nii you are bigger than this propaganda oo
Where was he during the qualifying times and did you know of by that tome
Mr S.
I think we should forget about who play for qualifiers and who did not .We qualify we need to do well, if there is any player with probable credentials,let’s consider them. Core team should definitely be maintained ...

Acheampong and Jerome pair with Djiku or salisu 3 back wont be bad at the World Cup
Nii should shut up. PR DRIP MAN
This lad is too young for the black stars and I watched him playing for Chelsea and we shouldn’t waste his talent just like we’re doing to Tarique Lamptey.
Nii Lantey why are you on this trajectory? What's your motivation for trying to destroy the very players who fought to qualify GH for the WC-26?
Even if the young guy you're projecting is better than C-Ronaldo and Messi c ...

Another loose talk from a government official. If Josh A is your son will you advice him to come play for Ghana, which has not invested anything his development? Learn to talk sense.
Well, Nketia and Odoi took your stupid advise years ago and now we see their level.
He is better than all the current defenders of black stars he said ,massa comot for there as a minister who did you do all you know is speak big big grammar nonsense why didn't you tell Otto addo during the qualifiers to invi ...

This is the most stupid comment from a Grey headed man. You are a poison that's why you were ignored. Is that the best way to ask for his inclusion. He would play all by himself. Don't start creating division when those u d ...

Hon. I disagree with you
Thank you Mr. Minister, you spoke the minds of Ghanaians. Hypocrisy at the highest order, the same people who were saying our players were not good after failing to beat Sudan, Niger, Chad are now attacking the minister for a ...

Family member…pushing agenda…Ofa masa
I think this man is a drunkard, the worst Minister ever appointed by esteemed AND farsighted President John Mahama. Remember, once upon a time this same man allegedly reported Ghana for fixing soccer games? Acheampong may be ...

Typical African politician, Ungratefullness at its peak.
How can you make such an irresponsible statement, denigrating the sacrifices of the current players. Whilst praising someone who is yet to commit to play for you.

It's a shame to hear this from no other person but a whole sports man. Journalist and an ex sports minister, think before you talk and don't talk like a toddler.
Foolish talk! Why do you want to court hatred for the innocent guy?
How can you talk like this. Now I understand why you didn't get the sports minister position. This is a loose talk and may I ask what is your intention to discourage our players or what. Shame on you . I know you personally ...

Please I apologize for this unfortunate comments
I will suggest we open the door for him to join our defence set up so should we have any injury he can be used as a backup.
Rubbish!
Please be kind to Nii Lante,galamsey John is done with him so he has given him modest DRIP to manage but truth be told BS is an average team with a below average coach.We could not beat a failed state Sudan team and the likes ...

Apuuuu!!!
Why didn't you say it before the qualifiers
Yes they have qualified without him even if you say he’s better than them.Please don’t unstable our heroes.Thank you
Statement, if true, lacks the desired diplomacy. Can demoralise BS camp but the boys will ignore.
As a former sports minister, his comments about the current players of the Black Stars Team is rather reckless and very very irresponsible.
He can express his personal opinion about the young lad without necessarily being p ...

Nii Lantey, why?
We need Acheampong for the immediate future. He is good, no doubt about it and he will be a good addition to the team in future. But not for 2026 world cup. Monkey dey work, monkey for chop.
You mass a idiot fi go say so.
This is a reckless comment not expected from an experienced politician. I think Nii Lante could have given all his praises about the player without comparing him with specific players who have bravely held the fort to get us ...

Hon Former Minister, Nii Lante Vanderpuye, could you not have praised Josh Acheampong without your needless negative comments about the current Black Stars defenders. The current defenders helped the Black Stars to qualify. T ...

Nii Lante Vanderpuye, you didn't talk like an elderly man here at all. He could be better than some but not all, haba! You've lost my respect, old man who cannot talk with decorum in public
We agree but he won't go to the world cup in 2026.
If he is so good as you claim he should come and prove it in 2030 qualifiers old man.
Dont try and push any monkey the work baboon dey chop biaaaaa!!!
There is something wrong with this man, what does he mean by that? Don't you things such statements bring players moral down?
This man should comment as a mature man.
This kind of useless talk without sound reasoning is the reason why Mahama gave u that shithole job . He knows you talk from your belly not your mind
This is an unnecessary comment
Reckless talk is the reason Mahama didn't give you the sports ministry. You are overly confident and mistakenly believe you’re smart. When you say such things about players who have worked hard to help us qualify for the Wo ...

The former minister's comment is unfounded and lacks evidence to support its claims. While he's entitled to his opinion, it shouldn't be misconstrued as fact.
