We all know that there are going to be people who will complain and resist just because he is an Akan.These same idiots bent over backwards to make excuses when Grant was failing.Coach Grant spent more than 87% of his tenure travelling AT OUR EXPENSE.We paid him more in a week than we paid Appiah in several months.So compare the records and tell us if this was a wise investment.Couldn't we have used that money we wasted on Grant to set up a Coach and referee college to start training our own?

He placed fourth at afcon and wxup brasil disaster. We don't need AA to come and use bstar for experience, again. 2yrs in Sudan what has he achieved? No more foreigners and whites coaching our national teams. Give desailly, tanko or.sellas tetteh a chance. Nyantakyi must be booted out bcos no.matter who u bring to.coach, nyantakyi payola go corrupt them. After 7afcons u still hanging around? Who.writes the bar 7times without a pass?

Ghanaians paa muahahahahaaaaaaa have u forgotten WHY appiah was fired? He plays a right footed player at leftback and a leftfooted player at right back. He took essien to brasil and sat him on the bench. He don't trust himself and his decisions. He fingered Maxwell konadu for backstabbing him bcos konadu wanted the job. Appiah had his chance, give others a shot as well but not konadu. He ain't ready. We saw how toothless his chan team was. Send him to u20

Desailly who is not even allowed to coach a colt team in France for free and you are disturbing us with his name.Polo,KingsonL,KPB,Muntari S.Appiah,Essien,Jordan,Gyan,Dede will all get a choice to coach the Black stars before we even consider making Desailly a water boy.

Why didn't we employ an expatriate to head the GFA? If we always think that an expatriate is always good to head the country's national team, then Nyantakyi isn't qualified. Kwesi Appiah should have been there since Brazil and I am without doubt that Blackstars would have won the cup. Is the black man not fit to head the national team? Is Kwesi Appiah not qualified? I know he is qualified, but Nyantakyi must go! There is nothing in his sleeves for the national team's upward movement. He has done his best and must now give way to someone else, period.

After getting a team in place he was booted out and AG was given the team. This team at least reached the finals and lost on penalties. AV's own team did not even make it to the finals. Kwasi all the way. He must come back to post. Let us respect our own. They are capable!

In my opinion there is the need to build a new black stars team. A team built around local players and so a person with a very good knowledge about our football and behaviour as well. I think Kwesi himself was part on the black stars and so has a profound knowledge about the team itself and our football as a whole. In all he did his best when he was in charge. He should have been well supported in the area of players giving him respect.
