    then it would be a bad ideal to hire an expensive coach for one year. I've always said Maxwell Konadu is the best Ghanaman for the job.

  • THE NYASS AT GFA 9 years ago

    WHAT TROPHIES HAS GRANT WON?
    WASTE OF SCARCE RESOURCES.

    EVEN $75,000 A MONTH IS TOO MUCH.
    HIS ACHIEVEMENT BACKGROUND IS ONLY WORTH $5,000 A MONTH, $60,000 A YEAR.

    KONADU IS BETTER THAN THIS GUY.
    THE ONLY SOLUTION IS ...

    Selection f a coach for the Stars is the responsibility of GFA, not the players themselves! However, the players can influence the decisions of GFA based on informed opinions/ analyses/contributions.

    BUT KONADU IS BLACK, MADE IN GHANA OR AFRICA IS ALWAYS INFERIOR. THAT IS WHY IT IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT FOR AN AFRICAN TO GET VISA TO TRAVEL, TO GET A JOB, TO DO WELL AT THE WORLD CUP, TO BE RESPECTED, TO BE LOVED ETC. THE BLACK ...

    Put a cooking pot on the stove. Blend GhFuo, Rasheed and Ogoglo together. Add "kankama" and "skinpain" to the blend. Iron Chef, with all his best recipes, can NEVER get a delicious dish outta this pull-him-down blend! The 3 - ...

    No local coaches for the BSs. What does Konadu know? The same trial and error like AA

  • Richard Annor Dampare 9 years ago

    I think the players are right bcos mr konadu know the players more than mr grant so GFA give maxwell a chance only for AfCON2015 .

    It seems to me that GFA is still not listening to people about this Avram Grant, the Israelist. Why on earth would Ghana appoint Avram Grant as Heah Coach for the Ghana Black Stars? Are we inviting violence to Ghana and Ghana ...

    Daniel,don't be stupid.Were there any terrorists where the new manager was?

  • Citizen 9 years ago

    You`re right! He`s the type of people who actually don`t reason well. Whoever takes the job isn`t the duty of individuals but the GFA itself. Because he`s from Israel doesn`t mean he`s inviting terrorist but these terrorist a ...

    Players are infantry men who are supposed to show up, work, get paid and get the hell out. Who cares what they want. They should know their place and stop meddling in appointment issues. SMH

  • Citizen 9 years ago

    I`m very sure you`re a civilized being so stop insulting others. What`s the insult here? Players aren`t slaves to any manager or management.

    People like you went to school in vain. You are clueless and brain dead in your reasoning. As stupid as you are, you need not question you child ever because you are more of an idiot.

    They are bigots and it is a shame the GFA will pay such large sums to some one who pay taxes to a racist and a murderous government...Israel is worse than the defunct apartheid government of South Africa....Ghana should have ...

    This Black Stars team cannot make it unless the senior players are invited.
    I don't care about foreign coaches but I can tell you, Konadu is not the right person for the job.

    GFA made the right decision.

  • Kofi Thomas, Cape Coast 9 years ago

    The black stars should stop their impulsive behavior and concentrate on the mission. Leave the work of the coach to the powers that BE!!!

  • Joe Turkey 9 years ago

    When the Black Stars win a game, we have a good coach; when they lose, then we have a bad coach. This is not a good way to assess. This is the craziest way to assess coaching. Get a permanent coach, give him a minimum 4-year ...

    Samuel you are right. Avram Grant should take over. These players mentality should change.

  • GC/USA 9 years ago

    WHY NOT NAME THE PLAYERS WHO PREFER KONADU TO AVRANT. I AM SURE THEY ARE THE TEAM B PLAYERS LIKELY TO LOOSE THEIR PLACE IN THE TEAM. NO MORE BRIBERY AND TRIBAL SELECTION. A NEUTRAL COACH. KONADU HAS NO COACHING CERTIFICATE.

  • SAK 9 years ago

    Do not make another horrible mistake - Konadu is not qualified as head coach.
