QUALIFYING SERIES OR GAMES IS NOT A TOURNAMNT. AA WAS EXPOSED AT AFCON13 IN S AFRICA, A REAL TOURNAMNT. U CAN CHOOSE TO SWEEP THAT FACT UNDER THE CARPET. THE DIRT IS STILL THERE. AA HAS BEEN WITH THE TEAM SINCE 207 TO 2013. H ...

The guy has low self esteem. He's only comfortable when the whiteman tells him what to do. AA is the man whether win or loose.
And guys on this Site will attack and roast you like suya the guy is getting ahead of himself,for Appiah to reach his current status as an experience head coach,we ghanaians or appiah shouldn't forget he has gone thru 3 or ...

Get lost !!! Who the fuck is Afful? You idiots in Ghana will always move one step forward and 2 steps backward because your skulls contain no brains.

Get clear.
Why are you so infatuated with foreign this, foreign that? How many foreigners has Ghana had over the past decades? what has been the results? It seems you have a complex and you need to work on it.
He always sounds like a lunatic.
He has never written even one sensible thing on this forum. What a dummy he is!!!
I wish I will see his picture one day, to confirm what I have in my mind.
That's why some people are calling for him to be banned from here. His nonsense and foul language is clearly driving sensible people away from here. I think the editor must act now.
Why the senseless attacks on this guy you guys don't behave as if the coach is a saint.
Fuck the hell off !!! Who says Appiah is a saint? What is his crime, trying to serve his country? You fools asked for foreign coaches and what tournament did we win? Where were you when the GFA were looking for local coaches? ...

1). Appiah never assisted Leroy, get your facts right. Meaning, he's not been there since 2007 as your pea size brain tells you.

What TD does is to give technical advice to the coach. It's still the coach who decides, so what's the point? I think all of this call for " foreign" TD is a tact to impede on the coach's confidence and absolute concentration ...

You make a lot of sense my bruda,we don't take time to digest info or comments too bad.
I have asked you to get a foreigner to manage your family including your WIFE and when all is good for you then you advice Mr. AA on his job. Have you tried that? It seems you a waste.
Don't listen to anybody. Afterall if it doesn't go well, it's you who will suffer for it.

Thanks for your input. I like your maturity devoid of insults. People like you worth emmulation.
Tell him more, Richmond Boakye Yiadom, Harrison Afful, Emmanuel Frimpong, with more behind seriously knocking at the door, hoping they'll be opened. Let's be grateful to Appiah for God's sake.
I think he meant to describe himself as a principled coach. Appiah should focus more on team planning and stop these unnecessary interviews before he says something that could land him in hot water.
That is why you always select Harrison Afful. I am NOT calling for his head, but to me, he is the weakest member of the national team.

Ayew and Atsu are similar. I suggest dropping Ayew to the reserves and pairing Majeed Warris with Asamoah Gyan.
Otherwise, great selection.
But we need a destroying tackler to fence and disrupt oppositional play. Rabiu is this bulldog.

Akwasi, dont listen to the politicians, All they think of is women, houses cars and ostentatious life style. And please tell the journalists that you were naked AKWASI APPIAH not Kwesi Appiah
I believe that you can do it, it´s only the African politicians who are still to learn better
I support the Coach and what he stands for, for the team. Good job, Mr. Appiah!!!
The 'can do spirit', the magic of success
Appiah,don't be conceitet,even the trainer of Bayern Munich, which is supposed to be the best club in the world has a first class trainer as a
