It's difficult to propose a solution to this team. We neither have defence nor a plan. Very disjointed team. We have a loooooooooooong way to go!

Some people have been arguing that Benjamin Asare has been good because the opponents he has faced are not strong teams, Austria is not a strong team but see Zigi's smoothness level?

Like we said....visionless leaders who throw millions of dollars away on football as current and future scientists, teachers, and other nation builders sit under trees! Seriously, we have allowed fools to lead for too long and it is all about to change, very soon.

Ghanaians everywhere, it is time for us to stop letting both npp and ndc loot the nation by playing us against each other! Both parties, since 1992, have connived to destroy Ghana in turns, and we still keep following them sheepishly.

Why should Otto Addo be coaching this team? The team lacks discipline, the team has not taken shape since he took over, and we are still foolishly refusing to integrate players who can help them team improve --even as we prepare to go and throw away $14million USD at the world cup on this team.

How foolish are we as a people, and even more so, how stupid are African leaders, especially those leading this nation? A new breed of leaders are coming from outside the system, and we will find every way and avenue to boot out the fools leading the nation -- and we will fix the system! SMH!

Otto Addo again. Testing Ati-Zigi again and again, after making us miss the AFCON. Asare made us qualify for the World Cup, and you have brought back Zigi again to experiment again. What a shame for a goalkeeper who cannot organize the defence line. A goalkeeper who would do great saves, yet give away so cheaply. For short, one must be dropped - Otto Addo or Ati-Zigi.

Is that how this team will perform in the world cup? I prefer ghana send a second division team to the tournament with a different coach. How do we hire a coach who never even coached a third division team to take over our national team? The black players practice on how to dance in case they score a goal. We have players that warm up the bench every single game in their teams but they are starters and even captain our national team. What a shame.
How ghana lost all its talented players in a so short period.

send my advise to the coach and staff:

In order for the Ghana Blackstars to return to their back-in-the-days performance where they were tough to beat. for the team to be a team to represent ghana at international stage....

YOU MUST BUILD THE TEAM WITH 80% LOCAL PLAYER from with Ghana premier league and 20% international players

the Defense, and attacking midfield should 70% reserved for the local players, then forward / sricker position made up of 30% international players

Also, stick to the same starting 11 wherever you go. not necessary to maintain the same substitutes. Let the same players player every game so they can correct themselves together each time. they reform and reaffirm.

why do you always start your games with 70%-90% new players. different goalkeeper, different defense, different striker??? your selection is already confused and so will your formation.

if you are not interested in using the local players, then use the same international players...call them same players for each game, be it a friendly or world cup level. they will understand themselves more better. they will know each others' ability, agility, and weakness. they will know when, where, how and why.

You go hunting with a complete different set of dogs or different combination of dogs, or different breeds and so your damn results will always be like this Austria 5:1 Ghana.

or having 20 different teachers to teach the same course and the same class...you will get a poor results in the end

maybe, go back and study the lines up of black stars from the 90s. watch the past games and learn when the same players were used. familiar faces among the team plays a key role.

Also, maintain the national, original jersey colour like many countries do. Tell me if i am wrong...ever since you changed the jersey from yellow to rando colours, the team has slowly gone down the drain. the spirit of the team died. go back and observe when the jersey was yellow. from the U17 to senior team, all main jerseys were yellow, Tony yeboah and Abedi's time....

if you love the team for the country, follow my teachings....
