I know Okra is far better than Latiff Blessings and a host of others in Blackstars now. Okra should have moved to Europe instead of playing in Sudan which is not helping his cause.

Why is he still in Sudan then? Common sense tells me that based on your extreme 'shinning' of this player, he should be playing alongside Messi in Barcelona. You people are the cause for the demise of the Black Stars. You tak ...

Why is he still in Sudan then? Common sense tells me that based on your extreme 'shinning' of this player, he should be playing alongside Messi in Barcelona. You people are the cause for the demise of the Black Stars. You take money and promote mediocre players into the Black Stars team only for them to flop, thus denying the chances for the excellent ones to make the team.

Ebby, have you heard of the saying: ,"great men start from humble beginning"? The Almighty Abedi Pele started from GABON if my memory serves me right.

True but he has been in Sudan for the past three years, he should be playing in Sweden, Austria or Norway by now. Playing in Sudan is not helping him.

Moving to Europe was more difficult and uncommon in Abedi's time. He went to Dragons because they paid better, not because the league was better.

Moving to Europe was more difficult and uncommon in Abedi's time. He went to Dragons because they paid better, not because the league was better.

If Okrah is all what this writer is saying then 3 years in Sudan is too long. He is 23 which means he's too old since EVERY football player born in Ghana cuts down his age right before they start youth soccer. Grant and all foreign coaches associated with African football know this fact. That is why Grant hasn't called him. Okrah is probably at the top of his game now and cannot be better.

But this write up is silly in stressing the aesthetics of Okrah's game. That is not the first thing coaches look at. Zlatan's game is much more beautiful than Ronaldo's but Ronaldo is always judged a better footballer than Zlatan.

You tell me sincerely which of the two Okra and Blessing should be with the Black Stars.
Don't you think Okra is streets and of Blessing?

Why not EPL or La Liga, with this style of football.

That's a good piece on the young man but I disagree when you say he's only 23. 23 years of age can't be described as only. He's already a matured footballer, in the prime of his career. By the next 10 years he'd be 33 years o ...

That's a good piece on the young man but I disagree when you say he's only 23. 23 years of age can't be described as only. He's already a matured footballer, in the prime of his career. By the next 10 years he'd be 33 years of age and his career would be tapering to the end. This is his time or forget about him.

Why is the coach always ignoring our best best playing on the African continent. The TP Mezembe quartet and Okra. Why Grant

Firstly i do appreciate the above artical about al-Hilal - Sudan player Augestin Okrah.He is really skillful player by his scoring the unexpecting pass and goals too during his time in Merikh team but the fact that and in my own point of view he isn't desirve to join for black stars yet.

Now he has a great chance to convience me and all during his participation with Hilal in African championship clubs.

I wish to okrah nice time and appearance in the new year2017 to shown his own star in order to represent his beloved country Chana.

All those who matter should impress on Grant to invite the young man into the BS now. If the writeup s correct, then he is a fantastic footballer. We need our best at AFCON and our next WC qualifiers in Aug 2017.
