This team had five clueless passengers; Sibo, Kamaldeen, Aliedu, Owusu and Inaki, and three questionable players; Jordan, Prince Adu, and Lucassen. These players could not provide the full services required by their individual positions, so others had to stretch to cover, thereby weakening the team. The coach is tactically bankrup offensively, and should be sacked. Why does he continue to give priority to Inaki, Jordan, Kamaldeen and Prince Adu when they continously add nothing to the team. (try Issahaku, Nuamah, Asante, Baah Bonsu or Boakye)

The team is a reflection of the ways of the GFA and the sunken state of Ghana soccer!!! GFA must go, Jordan must not be called again, Inaki has no luck in a Ghana shirt. We need a new team.

Seriously??? It's remarkable how tactical brilliance often arrives only after elimination. Before and during the tournament, all we saw you, your confidence—sharp suits, cheerful appearances, leading the jama, and projecting optimism. Once Ghana was out, suddenly the tactics were all wrong.
Psychology would describe this as hindsight bias and, perhaps, impression management: it's far easier to identify yesterday's mistakes than to question them before the result is known. That doesn't prove anyone's motives, but it does explain why post-match criticism can sound more convincing after the fact.
As the proverb says, after the rain has fallen, everyone knows where the roof leaks. Or, to put it another way, hindsight never loses a match. It's easy to become a football professor once the final whistle has blown.

GHANA IS DRIFTING BACKWARDS NOT ONLY IN COMPETITIVE FOOTBALL TOURNEYS. GHANA IS BACKWARD IN EVERY FACET OF LIFE. ONLY DISCERNIBLE GHANAIANS WITH COMMONSENSE WHO TRAVEL OUT OFTEN NOTICES THIS SAD FACT.

GHANA BLACK STARS ARE A CARBON COPY OF GHANA'S USELESS SUCCESSIVE THIEVING FREELOADING LEADERS, PARTICULARLY CRIMINALS LIKE AKUFO-ADDO, KUFUOR AND THEIR CRIMINAL ARMIES OF APPOINTEES.

GHANA'S LEADERS ARE ALL CRIMINALS AND FREELOADING LAZY IDIOTS SO OUR NATION IS GOING NOWHERE.

FOR DECADES, FUNDS MEANT FOR THE GROWTH AND MODERNIZATION OF THE ECONOMY OF GHANA TO GLOBAL STANDARDS ARE BEING LOOTED LEFT, RIGHT AND CENTRE BY THE LEADERSHIP WITH IMPUNITY.

THE SAD FACT IS THOSE WHO LOOT THE NATION'S MONEY RETIRE ON TAXPAYER-FUNDED TAXFREE SALARIES AND A PLETHORA OF RETIREMENT ALLOWANCES TILL THEY DROP DEAD.

WHEN THEY DIE THEIR CORRUPT BODIES ARE LAID IN STATE IN FUNERALS AND BURIALS AGAIN FUNDED BY THE VERY EXPLOITED POOR LONG-SUFFERING GHANAIAN TAXPAYER.

IS THIS HOW TO GROW AND DEVELOP A NATIONAL ECONOMY TO GLOBAL MODERN STANDARDS? CERTAINLY NOT!

Asamaoh Gyan need to know that Coaches vary their tactics depending on the opposition strength and weaknesses. You cannot play the same defensive low block as in the game against England, when you needed containment, not necessarily a win, as you will play in a knockout match where you needed a win to progress to the next stage of the tournament.

It shows Gyan is an idiot and has no football intelligence to be bluffing and posing as football pundit!

After the Panama first game, although we won, I clearly stated and even a child could see that Jordan Ayew was not fit for the striking role. He is not energetic enough to press opposition or make them afraid to go forward. Even a child could see this. Imagine Messi, he only and one job, make the attack sharp. What is old Jordan’s job? He is now RETIRED!

Jordan was put there because of his history during the qualifications. He was the leading scorer and every coach will have a big challenge dropping a leading scorer of a team if he is still playing. We don't have potentially goal scorers who can scorer on individual brilliance like Kudus. Semenyo scores from team work. Fatawu will score one out of twenty. So we don't have scorers. Inaki is not doing well with the BS. If you look at 2010 most of the goals were from individual brilliance. Even Gyan, Muntari Prince Boateng all scored from individual brilliance. This is not the team with the expectations we have as Ghanaians. Let keep building the right team will come.

It's good that the black stars lost the NDC foot soldiers would have been singing the praises of John Mahama. Meanwhile the man is hoarding $300 million World Bank meant for desilting drains and waterways in Accra. Let Mahama wear his white white he wore for the National Day of Prayers and Thanksgiving to welcome Kofi Adams, Kurt, Randy, Asamoah Gyan and the players at the airport.
By the way will Kofi Adams, Kurt, Randy, Asamoah Gyan and their cohorts also receive $100,000 each? Ghana has money for stupidity. See hoe Cape Verde has developed their football infrastructure. For Ghana every avenue is about create loot and share. The slaughtering of the 32 cows by the NDC affected the performance of the Black Stars. Mahama, we want the $300 million World Bank money now now now.

This is a big lesson to stop Ghanains from giving publicity and gloryfying fake prophets and witch doctors who were all over trying to take shine off the hand of God for the teams' effort in the group stage especially against England. People were foolishly attributing that effort to some witch doctors and powder men etc, now God decided to take his hands off the Team, and we have seen the results. Too many fools playing different roles in the black stars to fail the entire Nation.

It's impossible to have a fearsome National Soccer team when the performance of the government in power is abysmal. Can anything good come out of the NDC ?' Hell no. Please, don't blame the GFA , the Technical staff or the playing body we should rather blame the Ghanaian electorates for bringing the NDC to power.
