  Come on Joe Addo, you were on air just last week talking about how you retired from active soccer and your reason was, you played a match with Freddy Adu's team, Adu had a pass and you were the last man to beat, he put the ball behind you, outrun you and luckily goalkeeper Tim Howard save your arse from that and right after you gave up the game you started from Tema Mante Din Primary school. Don't tell me a fit Mensah is definitely good. Don't throw dust in our eyes. You were fit when Adu lobbed the ball behind you. Fitness is one thing, skill and form is another. Mensah has not played for 2 years, if he's just started let's see what he's offering before talking about his inclusion.

  Fatau Dauda is warming bench and he is OK to go. Akwesi Appiah had said he would give every Ghanaian a chance so he should go and look at John Mensah after all John need this to show the ungreatful greed wife.

  Haaaaaaaa, my comment was just a response to Joe Addo, making sure he's referred to what he said right on this website a week ago.
  
  Having said that, Stephen Appiah had club prior to 2010 W/C except that he wasn't playing. However, his kind of leadership skills overwhelmed the playing body to the extent that, they thought they couldn't make it without him and that was something the head coach at that time and GFA management believed too. For John Mensah's case, it's totally different. He's not inspirational, he's a central defender and that's one hell of a position to toy with on the field of play. Appiah has to monitor him very closely

  We saw John Mensah played for his team and Black Stars before he got injured. He is no more the John Mensah we use to know. Age has caught up with him. He himself must accept the fact that he is not what he used to be. Yes, he has done a great job for Ghana but at this time he must forget and rather encourage the young ones to be like him. Why all of a sudden the old guards all wants to be in Brazil. They will not be able to cope with the pace in Brazil. I tell you it will be a disaster for Ghana if some of these old guards are selected in preference to the young ones who really played hard to qualify Ghana.

  We will benefit a lot from his experience if only he is fit. John can deliver if he is fully fit. It's up to the coach to decide though.

  THE INTERNATIONAL SPORTING PRESS WAS CRITICAL OF THE YOUNG BLACK STARS DEFENCE DURING OUR SECOND LEG CRUCIAL WORLD CUP QUALIFYING MATCH AGAINST EGYPT IN CAIRO. FORTUNATELY WE LED 6-1 FROM THE FIRSTR LEG, OTHERWISE WITH THE RETURN OF SALA IN THE EGYPTIAN ATTACK, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN TROUBLE. WE NEED A ROCK OF GIBRALTAR IN OUR DEFENCE AROUND WHICH OUR YOUNGER TALENTS WILL TURN, AND IF, ONLY IF, JOHN MENSAH IS FIT, HE MUST BE CALLED TO NATIONAL DUTY!

  In as much as even an ant may have something to contribute to the discussion, it still holds true that executive and technical decisions like these should come from the Coach and his subs. Thats why he was given assistants. Secondly, I love Joe Addo but doesnt he work for one of our opponents in the tournament? If so then why is he advising Ghana? Is he a double agent possibly? I'm only saying oo....then again, its only soccer! who cares but let those who have ears hear ...

  If John Mensah is fit and playing competitive professional soccer then he can be considered. It is not only playing but if he is playing well because many are those who are playing but not necessarily playing well. If he is not playing well at his club then he cannot play well in Brazil. It is on this note Essien is of the view that the head coach Akwasi Appiah treats him like any other player. That implies that if there is a player who is playing better than him, the player should be chosen ahead of him (Essien).

  No one person has the right to hold on to any position in the national team irrespective of what perception people have of him. The technical team is experienced enough to select fit and competent players to man any position. Names do not play football. So please Mr Joe Addo, do not rush the technical team with your perception. The young shall surely grow as the the old give way due to age.

  Abedi Pele is fit and has a club, Nania FC. He trains effectively with them and should go to Brazil. Abedi and others like Stephen Appiah have huge experience. So does John Mensah. Should every old-man who kicked or kicks the round leather go to Brazil? Your answer is as right as mine. Thanks. If we want experienced players then coach Appiah himself should play, alongside Odartey, Tony Yeboah, etc, etc. We better go with young players with stamina, not old players with experience.
