  I can't believe Ghanaians never learnt anything from the last 4 AFCONs. We always start talking about the final and ignore the semis and we lose. Can't we see the pattern. C'mon people!! Ghanaians indeed have short term memory; because how can you lose 4 straight semi-finals and still never have regard for the semi-finals of the competition?? It baffles me when I think about it. Please semi-finals should be even more important than the finals because that has always been our barrier to progress. Instead we apply the same attitude 5 times in a role. How????

Therefore we continue to suffer... Please let's just talk about the semis for the first time in history, because this seem like dejavous to me honestly.

  I agree that we should rather focus on the game w?th Eg. Guinea but dont forget Ghana was in the final in Angola 2010 when we lost to Egypt.

  Don't blame GhanIans. Put the blame wholly on GHANAIAN JOURNALISTS. I always question their integrity

  The silence says it all. U've changed ur name bcos of the unpatriotic predictions you made. Ghfuo is owning up to whatever he said, he's not as wimpy as you're. Shame on you. Ogoglo, that's your boss, he's now The Truth weari ...

Ogoglo, that's your boss, he's now The Truth wearing robber's mask even in darkness. What a shame! Say Chaka is a liar, I dare you. I've proof to back my accusation and u know it's true. Emperor's aren't that

  I'm astounded, I simply can't believe that Rash is The Truth. I can see clearly now. Rasheed has been missing for sometime now; that begs the question where is Rash? Yeah, I got it!

  Grant must sit out dede, atsu, gyan in this game. The concentration should be on the defending and making sure we don't conceede any goals, or threats to the Ghana 18YARDBOX. Let jordan7, amartey6, acheampong11, badu, otoo9, accam10, gyimah and jonathan 4/5 fill in and play. 442 counter attack with special emphasis on ourndefence and making sure we don't CONCEEDE any goals. The players must be aggressive and non complacent, 2touches
  Semis vs. Eq.Guinea
  1. Coversion from freekicks, corners and crosses is very poor!
  2. Faking/attracting fouls in and around the opponents 18yardbox is also very poor.
  3. Our defenders must play with discipline, attention to detail in keeping the ball outside of the ghana 18yardbox at all times! Otherwise we will cry like tunisians did. Avram must work on these before we play Eq.Guinea.
  4. We saw how the eq.guineans FAKE penalties and are able to ATTRACT fouls/freekicks around the Tunisian 18yardbox.
  5. Avram must use this game to seal the defence, don't allow any danger around the Ghana 18YARDBOX.
  6. Mark out Balboa, and their #10 from getting anywhere near the Ghana 18. These 2 are their most dangerous players.
  7. 442 counter attack. Ghana must finish off the guineans in the first half.
  8. Ghana 1 nil win is all we need in this semi final game. Concentrate on TIGHTENING the defence!

  Come 2016 election year, the dumsor crisis will be temporarily solved and everyone will forget about it(short-term memory) and they will re-elect Mahama. That's our problem since Kwame Nkrumah's time, unfortunately. And of course we continue to bare the sam consequence again and again and again....
