Adiyiah, before moving to AC Milan was a bench warmer at Fredrikstad fc. He wasn't being fielded in matches so nothing changed. AC Milan were just trying to play a smart game thinking Adiyiah will out shine his performances during the under 20 world cup so they can sell him for big money. Adiyiah accepted the deal bços he knew very well he can not be any better than what the world has seen already of him bços he cheated in age.

How is soccer about age? Kaka played till he was grey. Kids like Aturo Vidal and Dede Ayew did not flop when they moved to the adult leagues, so what do you mean? How about Kwadwo Asamoah, Agyeman Badu and Lee Addy, they look older than their age so why did they not flop? Did Adiyiah use his bones to bully the kids? Soccer is a talent which also requires hard work so your analysis don't make any sense.

i am yet to enjoy comments more than what you have commented here and the one contributed by POW@ APPIAH, W/C or get fired, titled silas is wrong. i felt as if i was the one who made these two comments. In that tournament adiyiah benefited imensely from self less play of his striking partner and ensured he was selfish so he got more goals. if sadick adams had partenered ransford osei in that tournament and had silas tetteh not taken the captains band and number 10 jersey from ransford osei(psychological effect) the players and the team would have even soared than we saw.
next time we should desist form selecting smmallish, short, seemingly young but actually old players to feature at the under age competions.

What did Sellas Tetteh said that he was wrong and you going after him. Just read this and it said it all;

"Sellas Tetteh has exclusively revealed to Joy Sports that Dominic Adiyiah’s decision to join AC Milan was not in the right direction considering his age the time he moved to the Italian giants."

This statement meant that Sellas knew Adiyiah was over age.

Sellas was not benched in Rwanda for years. Soccer requires active practice all the time in order to improve. Adiyia's benching in Milan caused his demise.

I DON'T THINK SELLAS IS THE BEST AS YOU ARE CLAIMING. SELLAS IS A GOOD COACH, BUT DID HE ADVISE ADIYIAH
AGAINST GOING TO AC MILAN? WHAT HE IS SAYING NOW IS JUST TOO LATE, AND SHOULD NOT HAVE COME FROM HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE. THE SAME SELLAS IS SAYING "THAT WAS AN OPPORTUNITY WHICH NO ONE WOULD HAVE TURNED DOWN".O WHAT IS THE POINT IN TURNING TO SAY HE MADE A MISTAKE. SOME OF US DID NOT FAVOUR ADIYIAH'S MOVE TO AC MILAN, BUT WE ARE NOT CLOSE TO HIM IN ANY WAY TO EVEN ADVISE HIM AT THAT TIME. SELLAS, YOU COULD HAVE HELPED ADIYIAH, BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT SAYING HERE THAT YOU ADVISED HIM, BUT HE DID NOT TAKE YOUR ADVISE. I SUSPECT THAT YOU EVEN WISHED HIM WELL, AND ALSO FELT PROUD THAT ONE OF YOUR PRODUCTS HAD HIT A JACKPOT. I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS.

To me Adiyah moving to AC Milan was not a wrong move. He failed to live up to what all were expecting from him.So far he is the only youth promising star that have failed to live to expectation.If he had worked harder, he would have come out as a great player in Milan.Most of these top teams buy young, talented and promising star and help them to come out as top stars.All depending on how serious the player is.Milan gave him the chance to grow in a serie B team and over there he failed too. So he should blame himself.

My friend Okoromansa i think I disagree with you on this one with my simple reasons below;
He was not Adiyah agent
He has agreed that the club influence could play a part.
And lastly he also did admit that it's not over yet as he is still young.
I also agree with one comment that he is one of the best coaches we have which is correct. If you look at the crop of players he assembled and won the double which is Africa and world and this year missing narrowly on penalties speaks it all. I think this is why we always fail to progress as a nation. We always fail to give credit where it's due.

In my humble opinion, Adiyah has never been any extraodinary player. His goal soring "fame" in the youth championship and thus his movement to AC Milan both "came out of chance"....He ustilsed his chances at that time and enjoyed all the associated benefits. Those "chances" are now gone! By the way...is he performing any better in his current team?

Its a tricky kinda stuff, been a young flying striker who outshine his football mates in a tournament which earned him the top scorer in a world junior cup as victors and african junior cup respectively, the temptation is always at striking range,these are the breakdown of what might have triggered his move to AC Milan as probably Sellas might recall as a player himself, we players always wants to hit the highest when the opportunity is there, we experience that together when we were at GOLDEN PODS at Koforidua coached by Asibey Boakye. i was whisked to AKOTEX where i met Kankam,moses okyere, lomo mitchell former AURORAS Central defender, Sowah osei and i think yaw mark. The fame can sometimes change a footballers perception within a split second, i ll say it was a chance taken ,be it successful at AC Milan things would have been different. I think from sellas point of views just like Steven Gerrard of liverpool he never go away from liverpool though great offers comes and go and have gained more than expected experience to become a complete star undiminished at every level of football internationally.I known Sellas will re examine Adiyiah to see if he still have his composure and goal scoring abilities if so BIG SELLAS WILL give him an opportunity to develop into something spectacular in future.Fingers crossed.

As a footballer its an honor to have played football on the ground with SELLAS Tetteh together at GOLDEN PODS CMB coached by The great Asibey Boakye at koforidua Ghana secondary school football ground.He was the cool dribbler and great skills to create open space for me the aggressor to do the finishing. It was the golden age of football and highly competitive. Players came from all over the country to form the GOLDEN PODS AT KOFORIDUA NSUKWAO. Players like suley muhhamad, go slow, eric the captain from ba united, the Akore,s family, before before, GhanGhalu also known as Larwe, Akede,Baba,Ampeh the goalkeeper, owusu afriyie, Lazarus, and others like Kweku Duku, Nana Yaw, emmanuel owusu,nkruma,okuampa, teacher Francis Kumi. Agama, Osafu, Addison menya,SUGU meyem also called aboagye, Joe kwalukpa, Opele aboagye from Ghana highways authority to Okwao united are dazzlers in those era, ill love to get information about sellas just to talk and reflect on our experience at Golden PODS. Any one with information should reply and provide sellas contact details. I ll really appreciate. thanks

Playing against LOMO MITCELE former AURORAS central defender was the greatest of my football career as a young talentsd striker.After i left GOLDEN PODS. In those glorious age of football,to be whisk to AKOTEX was an honor means you possess the skills and qualities required to play with the best on the ground.Igained some extraordinary skills from GOLDEN PODS during my time there with SELLAS TETTEH TEIVI.Teaming up with sellas, Baba, go slow, suley muhammad, akede, Akore, Lazarus, eric Gbagbalu, we were able to utilized our skills and dribbling abilities to produce something spectacular.Then i was drawn against LOMO MITCHELLE for the first time with kankam,moses okyere and others.There we came face to face it was the most fantastic encounter between myself and LOMO MITCHELLE throughout the entire traing section. After the game he shook my hands and said to me am welcome to AKOTEX. took me to his residence in the hills and prepare me some food and drinks. He was hospitable to me and spoke to me about my dribbling skills and it was all laughter. When i recall all this it make me identify myself as a formidable striker. Ileft GHANA very young when i hit form playing with players like Hesse odamtten, ofei ansah, c notey, tony tieku, baba gambo, richeson, my mood get happier and happier.

Adiyiah formed a highly promising partnership with Ransford Osei.

It may just be that Osei brings the best out of him. And this is the more reason why the partnership should have been maintained and nurtured in one of the national sides, and ultimately in the Black Stars. I am not sure why the pair were not part of the team in the Olympic qualifying rounds. We certainly missed a trick there.

It is not unusual for players to perform very well at international level but not for club sides.

Adiyiah must find a good club where he plays regularly and scores goals.
