  What did you expect him to say? But in truth we did not play well yesterday. But then again, Akwasi Appiah is never interested in winning a match against non-African opposition.

  I have been waiting for the Black Stars mediocrity to be exposed since Kwasi Appiah was made the coach for the senior national soccer team before expressing my disappointment with his appointment.
  My reasons?
  Firstly, Silas Tetteh should have been given the job due to his technical ability and excellent track record. Coach Appiah has no record whatsoever other than having played football some years back. Please tell me which team he coached and the record he left behind. None.
  Secondly, he seems to be a slow learner or does not learn at all. Coach Milovan is the best foreign coach Ghana has ever had. He was not afraid to use young players since he knew how to strategise on the field of play. Appiah' lack of confidence is epitomized by his dependance on old players and names like Asamoah Gyan, Michael Essien, Muntari (who can not play 90 minutes without dropping dead on the pitch) etc instead of tried and tested youth like Assifuah-Inkoom. If Milovan had not used the Ayews, Inkoom and his group, where would Appiah had his players? I am sure Appiah would have gone for Baba Yara and co.
  Even though Nii Lantey Vanderpiue threatened to go on a demo if Milo was not sacked, this team has played without any pattern nor strategy since Vanderpuie had his desire fulfilled with Milo's departure. Any local coach in the second division can get a World Cup qualification for Ghana with the present crop of players we now have. He has played without patter and strategy and the team has lost the cohesion it had during Milo's term.
  On the issue of a foreign coach, Ghanaians should begin to realise that it is not only in governance, econonomy, judiciary, parliament and all aspect of our existence which needs qualified personnel but in sports also. The difference in know-how between Appiah and Milo is so huge that if Appiah is a Doctor, then there cannot be a title fit to give to the Serbian coach.
  Ghana will see the worse World Cup ever under the inept Ghanaian coach.
  Even bigger nations have fallen on foreign coaches. If Ghanaians were so capable of manning their affairs, our administrators would not be pleading for foreign donor support when the nation has so much resources (not human), we cannot even manage very rubbish we create our security is useless as criminals with low IQs play with the brains in our security. You only have to see the amount we pay for judgement debt to see how incompetent we are as a nation this is to mention just a few of our incompetence as a nation.
  The GFA boss is one person I admire for what he has achieved for the nation's soccer teams, but Dr Appiah as BlackStars coach will be one appointment that will haunt him for a long time to come.

  I agree, we have as a nation come to accept incompetence in every aspect of the society; from government appointments to sports coaching.

  Losing a goal to a current runners up is not much bad, phsychologically,their feared of exclusion as a results of injury, they reserved all for Brazil.
