WILSON, AKWASI APPIAH IS A MAN FEW WORDS. HE IS A GREAT TACTITIAN AND STRATEGIST WHO SHARED MANY TEARS WHEN FOREIGNERS DISMANTLED THE TRADITIONAL BLACK STAR AND GHANAIAN FAST-ATTACKING YET FASCINATING FOOTBALL AND BLOCKED IT ALL IN THE MID-FIELD FOR ONE PERSON TO SCORE GOALS. I LIKE THE SPIRIT OF THESE YOUNG TALENTS - VERY FLEXIBLE AND PERMEABLE TO ADVICE AND POLISHING. THEY SHOULD LEARN TO FOLLOW THE SHOTS AS K PHILLY WROTE, WHILE DEFENDERS ALSO SHOULD BE ON ALERT TO FOLLOW AND CLEAR THE BALL QUICKLY FROM THE DANGER ZONE, WHEN BALLS ARE PUNCHED BY THE GOAL-KEEPER DURING CORNER-KICKS, FREE-KICKS, AND EVEN PENALTY KICKS. ALL THE BEST TO THE BLACK STARS TO WIN!

KEYS TO WIN AFCON!
IF THIS SQUAD WANTS TO WIN. DO THIS, AA.
NO TIRI MU D3 OR COMPLACENCY, PLS
1. NO SEX, NO PORNO MAGAZINES
2. LIFT METAL. INCORPORATE WEIGHT LIFTING INTO YOUR TRAINING REGIMENT.
3. PRACTICE AT NIGHTIME. CORNER KICKS, PENALTIES, FREE KICKS. THIS IS WAT WILLIE MAYS, HANK AARON, KOBE BRYANT, THE NEGRO BASEBALL PLAYERS, BARRY BONDS, MICHAEL JORDAN,
ARTHUR ASHE DID. IF U CAN HIT A BASEBALL OR TENNIS BALL AT NITE, SINK FREE THROWS WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED. THEN WHAT WILL BE THE ODDS WHEN U
HAVE TO HIT THE SAME BALL IN THE DAYTIME?
3. ADOPT THE 532 FORMATION. PLAY BREAK AND PASS SOCCER. 2/3 TOUCHES. TRIANGLE STYLE ATTACK LIKE BARCELONA FC!
TRIANGULAR PASSING AND MOVING WITH THE BALL
4. PSYCHOLOGY: HANG A PICTURE OF THE 1982 SQUAD THAT WON THE TROPHY IN YOUR HOTEL ROOMS. IF U SEE THE PIC LONG ENUFF, U WILL BELIEVE U CAN WIN THE TROPHY.
5. THE BOYS HAVE TO PLAY WITH SUPREME CONFIDENCE LIKE SUPERMAN N TRUST EACH OTHER. FEAR IS AN ILLUSION....
DO THIS AND VICTORY WILL BE OURS!
6. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.
7. HAVE DESAILLY ON SPEED DIAL
8. BAN NYANTAKYI FROM GETTING CLOSE TO THE TEAM IN TRAINING CAMP. NYANTAKYI SHOULD BE IN GH. LOOKING OVER THE PREMIER LEAGUE AND MAKING SURE GH
SOCCER IS ALIVE AND WELL, DEVOID OF ANY BAFOONERY. WAT IS HE DOING WITH THE TEAM IN SAUDI ARABIA? HE IS A HUGE DISTRACTION
9. FYI: NO COORDINATED DANCES UNTIL GH REACHES THE FINAL, PLS. WE MEAN BUSINE$$.
10.DEREK BOATENG SHOULD STOP HIS STUPID BACK PASSES. WE PLAY TO SCORE
11.LET YOUR OFFENSE BE YOUR DEFENSE! LET YOUR OFFENSE BE YOUR DEFENSE! LET YOUR OFFENSE BE YOUR DEFENSE!
THIS IS YOUR JOB DEREK BOATENG
A. BREAK/STOP ATTACKING ADVANCES OF OPPONENTS INTO THE GH HALF
B. RELEASE THE BALL TO THE WINGERS OR THE $TRIKERS AND REST. I REPEAT, NO BACK PASSES!
11. KWARASAY MUST WORK ON HIS RELFEXES. KEEP UR EYE ON THE BALL IF U WANT TO CATCH IT!
IF U CANT SEE IT, U CANT SAVE IT!

RECAP: SIMPLICITY AND SPEED WINS. TRUST ME...!!!
BREAK AND PASS SOCCER, 2/3 TOUCHES PER PLAYER. TRIANGLE OFFENSE/ATTACK
I BELIEVE IN MY ANCESTORS

Often it's the second and even third strikes that produce the most goals. Follow each shot at goal as if the goalie would make a mistake. Successful strikers always look for opportunities in the 18. Defenders always dread goal mouth scrambles, second or third goal shots.

Emmanuel, I wish you and the rest of the team success.

'Keep some of your cards close to your chest'. The second friendly was played behind closed doors for that reason.

Our players talk too much , why? Such statements should be made by the technical team or more precisely the coach! He is in charge not the players!If he feels , he should let the world know of his training plan, that's is his beer!Agyman-Badu plays in Udimese, would he dare "trompete" the training plans of his team??!! Why this arrogance, do you think the other teams don't have competent coaches to develop tactics against your plans? Why do think the Tunisia friendly was played behind "closed doors" ? Please concentrate on your training and stop "blowing the trompete" all over the place!!! What you are "shouting at the tree-tops" would be used to "whip" the BS when things really matter on the field of play!! A word to the wise.....!

Damn fucking lier you are. The Ghanaian soccer scene has always been dominated by Akans, Gas and Northerners. Hey, whoever you are, do not look at every situation in Ghana with your tribalistic lens. One tribe tried to curtail the so called Akan hegemony, but failed woefully. In the end they had you- the foolish ones, running with that idea, and they became participants in the quest for wealth.

Open your eyes and be accepting of others not of your ethnicity, otherwise you will be alone on the island of bigotry.
