  • CHEEKY DONY!!!! 12 years ago

    This Baba Armando guy was once regarded as a future Black Star material, but due to his lunacy which was undiagnosed for a long period of time, it fucked him up. Jealousy would finally finish him off, i bet he is still smokes ...

  • MMTTWWWWW 12 years ago

    The players you mentioned never made it to the world cup and who are you to count yourself among those players? Abdul Razak, Osei Kofi, Abedi Pele (very controversial)? YES, but you and odartey? BIG NO. Besides football is a ...

    YOU ARE LAUGHABLE AND STUPID TO THE HIGHEST DEGREE. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE LATELY. HOW MUCH PLAYING TIME DID YOU GET? VERY LITTLE. TRUE, ANY FOOL CAN TALK OR MAKE NOISE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE IN THE NEWS

  • princewilly@ymail.com 12 years ago

    Odartey Lamptey was always on the bench in Europe.

  • MMTTWWWWW 12 years ago

    Right prince, truth be told. Odartey's par excellent performance in the under 17 tournament was as a result of man v boys. Odartey was a full grown man who played among under 17 soft bone boys. He was never the same when he p ...

    add Robert Mensah, Polo and Baba Yara to the list and that is your all time greats in Ghana's football history.

    Unfortunately, there is a freedom of speech for "everybody" to exercise, so we have to listen to any FUCKING ASSHOLE's opinion. I have faith in Kwesi Appiah and his technical team including the players to carry the flag of Gh ...

  • Arthur Hayes 12 years ago

    You people are never positive in your judgements and assessments. Current Black Star players are playing without play makers. It is not that the players are bad, NO, they are not bad. But what Armando is saying is also right ...

  • OSEI TAWIAH 12 years ago

    Dede and his brother were both in AFCON 2012 and what did we see, selfish play and over-the-bars. Open your eyes, Waris, Atsu and Wakasso are all talented players who can replace Dede Ayew.

  • Kwame Poison 12 years ago

    Abedi was famous in those years but was selfish and could not foster unity among the boys due to his perverse belief that every success of the team would rest on his performance.Talk about Polo,Razak,AA ,Akwasi\Dan Owusu,Step ...
