Jordan is not a striker, period. He is is more of an attacking midfielder, and only an experienced coach will realize this potential. The kid is good but playing the wrong role.

I don't understand what Jordan contributes.

His "shots" are nothing more than weak passes to the opposing goalkeeper.

At 2012 Afcon, he dribbled all the way from the midfield and then made a pass to the goalkeeper instead of shooting at him, and he has not changed his playing style since.

Anytime he has the chance to pass the ball to someone in a better position, he does not do it because he wants to take the glory, so why not fire him from the team?

For all the time Jordan is given to 'try out' for the BS, we have got nothing out of him. He is wasting the time we could be using to groom a 'no name (in your words, no soccer pedigree)' player to eventually replace Asamoah Gyan. Get it, it is not going to be Jordan! And you know it yourself but you don't want to offend Abedi!!

Having Jordan on the team is like going into a gun fight armed with a knife!

If you are talking about giving chances, then why not give Appiah the chance to start the game with Gyan? What can be worse? Jordan is not scoring, not winning balls, not putting any pressure on opponents' defense. So what would Ghana lose if he did not play? Nothing. It can only get better, not worse.

Waa look foolish Ghanaians. The guy is more skillful and talented when we talk about forwards presently in Ghana not even Gyan can be compared to him. Asamoah Gyan used to spoil 20 goals and score only 2 where were you by then. It's only hard luck that is against Jordan. He needs our prayers and not criticism.

Stop insulting Foyoo, what have done for Gh to insult our patroits. He served Gh before l. Now don't lie about JA to make your pt. The goal SA scored was rather a weaker header clearance by Amartey that fell for the SAn 7 , who volleyed it in. So be truth next time and go lie no more. Your sins are forgiven

Where do you want Jordan to get the experience from if you don't want him to play?He is in the age of trial and experimentation. When he is 25 you will see what happens.

WELL SAID, JOHNSON, BUT HOW ELSE COULD JORDAN BE ENCOURAGED AFTER BEING USED IN ALL THE MATCHES? CRITICISM IS ANOTHER WAY OF ASKING A PLAYER TO IMPROVE UPON HIS PERFORMANCE. THERE ARE OTHER STRIKERS IN THE TEAM, AND THEY SHOULD BE TRIED BY THE COACH INSTEAD OF KEEPING JORDAN WHO HAS NOT BEEN EFFECTIVE SO FAR.

You are right but, sometimes what you don't know is that in football not those who don't lose the ball are the core winners of the game. He needs to brief though that he is playing for his country and not for himself.

The coach is closer to the players than all of us the well wishers; it the coach's assessment of the players' current form that is the best not ours. Team selection is the coach's job.

I think it's not fair the way some commentators talk about Jordan, I listened to the Asempa fm when Gh played SA from the commentary I even got vexed, the whole commentary was about Jordan and he was calling for his replacement, I was shocked when I saw eurosport rating him 7. I think the commentators should be fair in their reportage. Football is a team sports not individual

Look here mr. big star, the people who critic President Mahama are the same flaming fuckers crying for Jordan to be removed. This group of SOBs just hate to see the two brothers with the last name Ayew. Coach Appiah started this nonsense because of his fledgling and fractured relationship with their father.This man did not stop Appiah from making boys by his wife. Their father elected to have them and still play football.
Consequently, this doubled gloomy countenance was bought into by the hate gang who feels that when things don't go their way in Ghana, there is no any other way. All these nostrils flaring is not any confluence of unrelated coincidence but a targeted rancorous tap dancing gang with little knowledge in the game of soccer.
One of the problems with many Ghanaians is that, they think they know football more than the persons in charge of it. Why did GFA has to hire a coach instead of letting any body to call the shots.

You are all hear running your mouth about a very young man doing his job. Most of you have failed exams wrote several remedials before getting a pass grade, some of you are working but your performances are nothing to write home about. Some of you are teachers who work lotto or ask students to do chores for you instead of teaching them. Some of you have been on strike without working yet expect to be paid. Others are government leaders who are only seeking per diem rather than lead the country out of dumsor most of you are civil servants who will take bribe before performing the very duty you are being paid to do. Yet all of you come hear and run your mouth over a young man in sports. You should all be ashamed. Go and force your political leaders to solve your day to day vital problems before trying to kill a young boy. You whine over u necessary things while your tax money and resources are given to Woyome, GYEDA, etc and both NDC &NPP playing on your stupidity while their families live large!
