Yes, you better go on your knees and beg him. That was what Appiah and Nyantakyi were doing when it came to KPB and Asamoah Djan.

Waow, he was your "Bison", today he is your "Wall." I like that Jose! I Hope Essien lives up to the expectations of Jose and I pray he does. At least, the player could have something to fall upon before he retires. At 30, and according to football age, this is the time to play smart so that injuries could be avoided. The bones are brittle already so it is time for Essien to play with his head but not his heart. His heart may want to challenge every 50/50 ball; however, his bones may not be capable and willing to do so. Therefore, his head would have to decide for him, whether to play hard or smart.

Wise up and play smart, Essien!

You are getting old and have been given another lease on your playing life so don't go charging and playing like you are 25.

How can you say that Mourinho should advise African officials to protect home when he is playing?

What about the other players who also play?

Essien is not even a striker or attacking midfielder so why would he need a ...

What about the other players who also play?

Essien is not even a striker or attacking midfielder so why would he need any special and differential protection by referees?

Essien has done a lot and many would appreciate that.But his absence,is not any deadly blow to the BS as long as A.Badu,Muntari,Atsu could play his role.

Please, please, please, don't mention Agyeman Badu. He is ok but nothing special or comparable. Not even Atsu can take the role of Essien. Muntari , yes, his experience, skills and goal scoring finesse are great assets. Don't ...

Please, please, please, don't mention Agyeman Badu. He is ok but nothing special or comparable. Not even Atsu can take the role of Essien. Muntari , yes, his experience, skills and goal scoring finesse are great assets. Don't get me wrong, I love Atsu, but for Agyeman Badu, I think he is called because Akwasi Appiah and Nyantakyi love him for the things he says, not his football skills. Sometimes I wonder why they call him, Adoma and Solomon Asante and don't call Jordan, Ibrahim Ayew and Quincy Abeyie, who are all far better footballers.
