    If there should be something called "pull him down" here, then it should rather be attributed to you cos you're the one trying to avoid the reality here. Benjamin Asare's performance in the match against Germany was very poor ...

    I am very disappointed in Nii Lantey Vandepuige. He is supposed to know better. Ati Zigi who is playing professional football conceded 5goals. Asare conceded 2goals, so what's his problem. He should give us a break

    Shallow mind and flat argument. The fact that Ati Zigi conceaded 5 doesn't mean he is a poor goalkeeper. Did you access the defence that day?

    The argument for the inclusion of local players is not for them to go and play. Select your best 20 from all over the world to be the starters. Give the additional 3/6 to the local players to promote local football and also b ...

    Then the problem is with the poor standaard of football development and administration at the local level and not the local players. These local players are the products of the system we are running in Ghana.

    He was boxing commentator. He knowledge in football is limited so he should either encourage the goalkeeper or stop this unnecessary critics.
