this is the World Cup, players have always been added in the last minutes
@Tk, use your brain man, players have always been added but not players who think we (Ghana) are only an option when they have nowhere else to turn.
Facts bluntly presented by Derrick. Unfortunately we don't learn. Let these England boys remain in their country
D Boateng please eduucate us. How much value did you bring to the BS (GOALS AND ASSISTS). DB was a bench player. You talk too damn much.
WE NEED MERCENARY PLAYERS TO PLAY FOR GHANA
Here we go again!! Ghana has qualified for the world cup, so it is time to press the self-destruct button, as usual. And it is amazing the calibre of people to stoke the trouble for the Black Stars. Nii Lantyee Vanderpuye is ...

Boat3ng you are taking foolishly..you need players with high soccer IQ. Players with that high and strong mentality to play for crooked Ghana at the wcup.
These are average players. Not messi or ronaldo type. They have nothing special to offer.
Mama! We need them.
You n who?
Agreed with Derek. Remember Kevin Prince Boateng and how he disaffected the team?
Emotional people like you are thr reason Ghana has been stuck in reverse drive since 1969
If you think we can beat England without Odoi and Nketiah it isn't going to happen. We need them period. But also we need other players too to switch to play for us because it is all about building the strongest team possible ...

WE DO NOT NEED HUDSON-ODOI AND NKETIAH! Do you think if England came calling, Odoi and Nketiah will opt to play for Ghana instead? They will not! Besides these 2 players had one good game each in recent memory, and we take ...

But that is not the issue is it? No one is talking about opt here- the question is- with the the squad we have do we need them or not? Will they make our team better or not? That is the question? Yes they snubbed Ghana, fi ...

It's better we go world n lose all our games than bring in people who turned their backs on us. Nkwaseasem seiyaaaa
Turns their backs on who? If a better opportunity exists why will you chosesecond b3st? England Is a first world nation. Ghana is a 3rd world. What's common sense. Go to British embassy and see ppl trying to get visa..go ton ...

This team needs reinforcements and nketiah and Hudson odoi have the elite mentality some of the bench warmers don't have so why will you take these doc 2 players to wcup when you have these 2 at your disposal? Ghanaians don't ...

Ghanaian are not fools we don't want them we like our recent black starts players.
Derrick needs to look back in 2010 how Kelvin Boateng inclusion made a great difference to the team. How many times before Salisu accepted to play for Ghana? Or Nketia and Odoi are Nigerians? The same way Quincy Abeyie was sa ...

Kelvin never rejected Ghana, Jerome did and went ahead to play the the Germans, accepted. How can someone who has categorically rejected multiple callups just show only when we qualified for the WC and even when they're out o ...

@Ketteku, first of all, Kevin Boateng didn't initially reject Ghana and only turned up when he realised that we had qualified for the world cup - he made Ghana his first choice. Secondly, Hudson-Odoi and Eddie Nketiah are now ...

Yes, it makes sense. Because they are good so they can pick and choose. If you are alidu seidu or some bench ear.er you can't pick and choose like that you don't have that leverage
You've said it all Derek. Most of Ghanaians supporters don't need them. We have learned a lesson from previous players and wouldn't like to repeat it again.
stop the nonsense Dereck. This is world cup, we must open up to any good players who are Ghanaians and willing to play for their country. Some nations have even freed jailed players to play for them. My only problem is the co ...

Derek stay out of this. We don't need any extra mercenaries and unpatriotic Ghanaians
Are Nketiah and Odoi patriotic?? Shame on you.
Master we need them
We still have more world Cup and Afcon tournaments ahead of us.They can get their call ups after this world cup for proper cohesions with the team before any of the tournament comes.
Dereck please stay out of these we need them, Ghana team is not good.
If they are really poised to play the Ghana, they should humbly wait and join up after the world cup. If they come or not, there is no guarantee we're going to win the cup. Nonsense!
Na Jealousy talk be dat. What do you mean with they will add nothing? The current Black Stars squad does not have the quality of a striker like Nketia. Neither do we have any player like Odoi. Each of them come with a peculia ...

Jealousy my ass. U just like people who always revel in 2nd hand goods. When they refused calls up, why didn't you write this. Now england has rejected them, you're here spewing trash. Respect yourself. Odwanfunu
Kk what stupid childhood talk be dat? Repect yourself. Whether your as or nyass jealousy be jealousy and one can smell jealousy 100 kilometers away. What is the contribution of Derrick Boateng to Black Stars? Who even remembe ...

Derek you lie bad.
Who is this stupid below-average player, Derek Boateng ?
What was your contribution to the Black stars.
You were not even Blackstar material.
Can you compare your stupid self to Odoi and Nketia ?
Stupid Fool.
These two players are parasites and they don't have any love and affection for the country
Derek what better thing did u do for the black stars?
Hudson will add more to the attack.
Ghana needs a strong and winsom team. K.P. Boateng's addition to the 2010 Black Stars paid off. Let's add Hudson-Odoi and Eddie Nketia. Even the prodigal son was accepted by His father.
Derek should shut up. Eddie and Hudson-Odoi are better than him. Eddie and Hudson are better than many of the current Black Stars players. In our last game against Comoros, we saw how easy it was for our midfield and defence ...

Laryeah Kingston played all the qualifies and was dropped what about that? Lol . Let's face the facts Otto Addo's current team not great enough
God bless you Derek. Ghana is very ungrateful and wicked if those who toiled to qualify us to world cup are removed and replaced with these guys. I Prefer we dropping out in the competition at early stages with those who qua ...

This is an issue of choice and the consequences that follows. Will their inclusion benefit the current Stars set up or not? What if one or two forward strikers(currently in the team)sustain an injury prior to or during the WC ...

Odoi and Nketiah are not adding anything to the Black Stars .I have watched Nketiah all his days at Arsenal and now Palace . He' s being given few minutes here and there . He has become heavy and too rusty . When Ghana faile ...

Derek I think you are talking from illiteracy perspective, when one is born in another country it takes time to make the switch so I wonder why you saying this what is your interest in current squad?
Ghana has invited them a hundred times and they have rejected Ghana a hundred times. Ghana should have some dignity and move on. In five years' time, no one will be talking about those two confused England rejects.
We do not need them
True talk, Derek.
My question is did Derrick play 2006 qualifys, Big No but he went to the world cup.
