Shut up, Fifa boot licker. If its that safe to be there why military stadium with limited supporters? Don't let possible Fifa appointments cloud your judgments, dummie.

This is not about boot licking it about common sense and instilling confidence. We are wasting time and energy on things we do not have control over it. Fifa had made is ruling all we need to do is instill confidence in the team and not create fear for the only thing you may fear is fear itself.

You people just went there to waste your time and our money. You could not convince FIFA to change the venue, even though there is evidence to show that Egypt is not safe.

Fifa is not like Rasheed who keep moving the goal post. When was the last time you heard Fifa had changed her mind. Didn't we in Africa host and continuing a tournament in war zone when players where attacked and when that country pulled out of the tournament they were ban.

Now CAF awarded the 2009 Cup of Nation to Angola they know it was a war zone they went ahead did it. When Togo was attacked CAF went ahead with tournament where you and all dem dem. Togo pulled and they got ban.

Fifa was not going to change her mind everyone know that even my 3 year know that so what Abedi is saying here is apply common sense and you are attacking him zero work done.

Are you trying to claim that I have changed my stance on Appiah or what? If your 3 year old child even knows that FIFA will not the venue, then why did a "whole Abedi go there and waste his time and our money?Massa

There is no cause to worry about security in Cairo, Egypt on 19 November. It is going to be football at its best and nothing more or less. The Egyptians know they are already out but they would like to redeem some pride by beating the Stars. And that is where the danger is. A 6-1 lead can easily be wiped out if the Egyptians are prepared for a match and we are not.
The players need to have the right mentality to avoid any crisis in Cairo. First, they must prepare well - it's good the match is on a Tuesday. Second, the players must be smart enough to avoid unnecessary cards. The penalty given away in the Accra match is an example of a player who is not smart. If such a thing happens in Cairo, the referee might even show a red card as well. The referee is there to whistle against infringements. So if you bring down your opponent in your "18" don't expect the referee to overlook it. Finally, it is not a smart thing to be quarreling with the referee. The match is not against the referee but the Egyptians.
Definitely, our team is deserves to be in Brazil more than the Pharaohs.

Abedi's son will be on the field of play coming Tuesday and I don't think he will be stupid enough to say all is clear if it's not. Unless his'inform' son comes with an excuse that he's not fit to play on Tuesday, then we all can now question Abedi's assertion.

Meanwhile, Ghanaian lets intensify our prayers because it's going to be a very very very very tough match....

Egyptians have paid fifa and caf to play the match in cairo. A french journalist said he is sure that Fifa and caf has received money from caf.

Did we pay something to FIFA or CAF when we played the first leg in Kumasi? Egypt had played all their home matches in Egypt. They have the right to play their home matches in Egypt just as we have the right to play at home.

I believe Coach Kwasi Appiah is working on his game plan. All we need to do is take absolute control of the game by perfecting the art of possessive football. Let's control 70% of the game, and get focused about how we move the ball.

We must endeavour to string our passes neatly together; we can't allow them to have more possession. The Egyptians are by now rehearsing on how to feign foul tackles and drop in and around our "18-yard" box, looking for penalty and free-kicks etc. Let's be vigilant and avoid unnecessary tackles and provocations. We should totally out-play them, right in front of the rowdy fans; we should let them understand that we're superior! The 6-1 scores aside, Egypt isn't any great problem; they're a very good side but they'll fall again in their own backyard and that's what they don't seem to realise. They have the notion that we're afraid of them. NO, we're never afraid of any team. Let's get to Cairo or wherever FIFA might propose and shut them off. It should be clear that we're ready for battle!

Marcel can go to hell for all I care.He is not needed, respected or loved.When he dies I hope they don't burry him in Accra because what I will leave on his grave won't be mistaken for flowers.

Ever since you were born with a 'mentally challenged' brains, name me one accomplishment or contribution you have made to this nation?

After all, Odenkey was born right here in Accra and has repartraited and invested some of his hard earned earnings and established a world class Sporting Facility here in Accra, his hometown, helping the next generation to develop their talents to represent Ghana on the world stage.

Can your sorry ass top that?

Or better, how many of the "well paid" former Blackstars who sacrificed for Ghana top that?

You guys are so full of hate at successful people.

Remember, haters don't succeed in life because they become eventual LOOSERS.
