That is a nice move to reboot the guy's confidence.
Michael Kobina A. Essien has all the confidence it take he only had been given the Captain band because he is the most senior player to start.
1. Player positioning on the field: adopt the barca triangular player positioning. When aplayer gets the ball. 2 gh players must position themselves next to the player with the ball in a triangular fashion/style.

When I player gets the ball there is no positioning by team mate to receive ball in good position... And this is due to formation! Days of traditional right back and winger are long gone! A kwasi appiah is a PE COACH!
He's better than some of these so-called strikers.
Which website can we watch the game, please help.
The penalty vs gh was unfair. Too early to.Give such a penalty! A penalty like this must be given innthe heat of the game when a win is needed to go home and grab the 3 pts. Not in the first minute. Shameful on the ref....
It was a ffair decision.
We lost this match because of him. Bad placement, and hot tempered. Lucky not to ave been sent off.
Funnu this Addy guy never been BS quality yet he keeps getting calls. What's wrong with these coaches?
It was a fair game. The early mistake cost us. It is just a learning experience.
NEVER CHANGE YOUR NAME MR.,ANOKWALE.PENALTY CAN BE A SECOND IN THE FIRST HALF IS A PENALTY.I WONDER WHY OTHERS ARE SAYING THAT IS TOO EARLY.DID YOU WATCH BELGIUM AND ICOAST?TOO INTERESTING AND I REALLY ENJOYED IT.GOD BLESS

David Addy should be reprimanded for such un-sportsmanship.
You can not under any circumstances punch an opponent and get away with it.
If he is allowed to get away, I am afraid he will repeat it at a sensitive day.
Akaminko punched the guy.
IF YOU ARE RIGHT, THEN IT IS HIM WHO NEEDS TO BE PUNISHED. WE CAN NOT HAVE SUCH INDISCIPLINE AT THE WC.
THEY ARE THE STARS AND MEANT TO SHINE NOT DISGRACE GHANA.
Wow good bench.
Mighty power!
bench Essien and start Aboagye the under-20 player and lets see what happens cos Aboagye is in form, plus he's younger and have something to give to Ghana.
Akwasi Appiah, your head is empty. It seems you want to experiment. That is OK. You have the right experiment for the back, the left fullback especially. What about the right wing? Why is Adomah on the bench and Jordan Ayew o ...

Do you know football idiot , Adoma is good player but Jordan need to be try wether he deserve world cup list
Paa Joe, it is OK you call me kwasea. You are a moron just like the coach. The right wing is where experimentation is needed, not at the striking position. Warris, Boateng and Gyan are the strikers. Tell me who plays right wi ...

Atsu is the right winger? Can't you see that they're playing 442?
I see from the selection that Astu is the right winger and I am saying the coach is wrong because he is trying to get around the right wing problem. I am telling the coach to find the real solution, which is Adomah. Astu is a ...

THIS ATSU WINGER THING IS A PAIN. THE CHAP IS NOW BEING USED AS AN INSIDE LEFT AND RIGHTLY SO........
Why didn't aa start adomah over atsu? Aa should have used atsu on the left, adomah on the right.
These 2 players can play right wing better than adomah and atsu. Trust me...
You only come here and run your mouth but you don't know nothing. Appiah is an expert and let him do his job. Hope you watched this match live? What do you say about your Addy?
Asempa, I think your head is upside down. How can you say this , are you mad? You must just give advice but not to insult the coach.Where from you, there or here?
Yes I am mad. I am mad because people in positions in Ghana are dumb. For $20M to go to waste? Sorry, for my outburst but is it right the coach is fielding Jordan Ayew while it is obvious the team needs a right winger and a t ...

You are 100% right the problem with Akwesi Appiah he is afraid to offend The Ayews he is trying everything to justify their inclusion. The reason you play this friendly is to find solution to areas that you need to correct. H ...

Gfa, can't you adopt a v neck style.for.this jersey with the kente pattern? Wat is this horrible design? Is this a male or female jersey? Unisex jersey wei?
Waris has avery poor first touch for a pro! But
Very pacey can be used as sub on the right to face tired defenders for the last 20 mins of matches.

Jordan is trying to play warris role on the pitch. Hence the confusion...warris is roaming, Jordan is also roaming....he'll nah...warris must roam. Jordan must play the 9 and keep in and around the 18 to shoot to strike and s ...

We should have played South Africa
Playmaker needed,seriously.Teams such as Montenegro,Serbia etc.are all about defence.Find a way to unlock such a stubborn defence.
GHFUO, WHAT ID YOUR TAKE?
Aa is adomah's school fada. He is protecting the guy from criticisms. Why isn't adomah starting this game?
Very healthy bench .Bravo !!!!!
For God's sake can we as a nation for once give Akwesi Appiah the benefit of the doubt? This is a trial much. Let's stop the unwarranted insults.
Ghana will win the world cup
Why are we fielding irregulars while Brazil are playing with regular against SA? Black Stars need to play together and practice and practice. Anyway, this is my opinion.
This is just our first trial match, lets wait for this match to be used to assess the not-too-sure players then we see in the next friendly if his #1 will still be left out
We do not have to copy what Brazil does. What happen to doing what is best for us, instead of what is best for Brazil?
Knowing the USA Coache's win-at-all-cost spirit against Ghana the Montenegroe player may be paid to do a dirty job on one of our key players. Appiah is not stupid. He is going to study how it goes before he fields his real sq ...

I went on the site because of the comment that we can watch the game and now I have all sorts of problems with my computer. Stay away from that site.
GHANA WE ARE GOING TO WIN BY THE GRACE
OF GOD AMEN. LET US PRAY FOR THEM
Where is Richmond Boakye Yiadom Instead of Jordan??
AA knows that but he is under pressure from Abedi Pele
Give the kids a chance. Tomorrow, when your first team players are too old, you will be looking for the Ayews, who will then be at their prime. It's just a trial match, so give Jordan a chance. What if he scores?

You have all the materials, coach just get the best out of them. Remember Coach, the Ghana Black Stars are in your hand, we need good results at all time. God be with you.
THE SELECTION IS GOOD, IDEA IS GOOD AND MENTALITY IS GOOD. BUT RABUI MUST
GO TO THE WORLD CUP.
I hope Akwasi Appiah will delegate from his technical staff to monitor USA vs Ukraine today or record the game for subsequent analysis.

There is nothing like weakest team for a goal keeper. Infact that should rather bring out the best in the goalie.

THE LINE UP IS TOO POOR, WHATY ARE DEY DOING, AYEW AND INCOOM ON THE BURNCH?

We may even bring the cup to Africa
The cup is already here. We have the best players in this tournament.
GHANA WILL DISMANTLE MONTENEGRO BY DEFEATING THEM 3 GOALS.

I am watching the game and I think Ghana is playing good despite the early 1-0 down.
The penalty kick was the difference. Ghana were the better side by a mile but goal win games. We still should have won the game though. Kwarassey was good today and should regain his no 1 status for the Stars.
Some of you just write rubbish here without understanding what soccer is. We fumble against a team like Montenegro and you are happy.Even Brazil that just beat South Africa are still not satisfied.

The work rate is good, but the boys need to get enterprising upfront. Shooting ability on target needs to improve, stringing of passes need to be precise and accurate.
The boys need to take their chances and increase their conversion rate upfront to at least a minimum of 95%. That is the only way they can advance in the mundial.
The Montenegro team was not a walk over by any chance, and i ...

You don't know anything about soccer. Brazil will Montenegro with their team F .Ask your Appiah if he has ever won a match against the whites, be it Asia or Europe.
Another fool, now winning a soccer game is all about race? I won't even bother with you because you are too stupid to understand common sense.
Too many panicky Ghanaians. This team is good. Certain players are not ready for prime time but we found that out today. This is part of the process.
Thank you, i am glad that there are Ghanaian footballer fans like you with who understands the game
