Tweaaa kai! According to Nana Ghfuo, Kwarasey is blind in one eye. I'm not sure if it's the left or the right eye. Massa, one-eyed goalkeeper de3, hmmm!

How could you state that "according to" Ghfuo? Is he Kwarasey's eye doctor? You're full of it, Kutsii.

Would FIFA allow Kwarasey to wear eye-patch in posts because he is blind in one eye? Excuse me, Nana Ghfuo!!

For the sake of Moses' holy beard, please keep Kwarasey away from our goal posts. We call this dude a goalkeeper?? Ghfuo is damn right to state that Kwarasey is blind in one eye. We don't need this "one-eyed goalkeeper"! He will kill us in a very crucial match.

Kwarasey conceded a very soft goal.

He always seems to have problems with high, dipping, spinning balls, especially when there are challengers (attackers) in the box.

Remember Afcon 2012?

Olele had a very aggressive approach to such threats: Punch away, hard and high!

If Adam is afraid of head injury, what prevents him from wearing a Petr Cech helmet?

In fact, I think FIFA should make it mandatory for all players across the globe, amateur or professional, local or international, to wear soft-padded head gear for protection.

If Adam returns to the national set-up, Nyantakyi should appoint Olele to be his trainer.

I think you guys are the one eye spectators of the game just like the referee who handled the game ´cos people with sharp eyes saw how that Kamara guy was able to bounce Larson from the ball with his left arm when he(Larson) was in the air(clear foul play),yes the referee was the blind one,he did not even see how that Crew´s captain was able to bounce the Timbers 3rd goal with his left arm which was supposed to be a clear penalty for the Timbers.

Kwarasey is an average goalkeeper. What a silly goal he gave up in the MLS final. No need to beg him to play for Ghana. He is avoiding joining the Black Stars because he knows he doesn't have the required high standard and pressure to perform.

Good job. We are very proud of you here in Oregon.

Now, go and win the CONCACAF. You can do it, and maybe, the Timbers can go all the way. Go Timbers!!!!

Afful is better than anybody we have to play 7,but the coach is reluctant to play him there probably because of his services at the right back. Well Coach, Amartey can also play at the right back so don't be afraid to play Afful at 7. If anybody pays a close attention to the team, seven is our weakest position; we absolutely don't get any good crosses from there and neither do we have any goal scoring threat from there. Please, Coach play him there and see the production you will get from him.

I dig what you are saying but I think he is best suited for the right back position.

1)He is a defensive player who is good at overlaps and flanking passes just like Baba on the left back position ,he is also a torment to strikers with that his "umder-the-feet, confuse the opponent" style of play .

2) He is not use to the skill of holding on to the ball and dribbling his way out of an opponent´s defensive wall like how Larye Kingston or Quincy Abayie use to play. He could get in some flanking passes yesterday yes but he was not able to overcome the defense he faced as real 7 is suppose to.

I think he was better during their western conference finals against the red bulls at his original position of the right back.

It baffles me the way Ghanaians think. I don't know whether is it is illiteracy,or their mind is cursed or is as a result of mediocrity or all combined. Probably It might be the latter. What else do you want this dude to do to show you that he is the best we have. He was the best goalkeeper in Norway for many years,but rejected Norway to play for Ghana Nkwasiafo. He won Norway league and now has carried the form to MLS. He is named best MLS goalkeeper in his first year and has won the MLS in his first season. His save was voted best save of the season. I heard he was benched at the WC because he cannot speak Twi, thus the illiterate ghanaian defenders cannot understand him. nkwasiam ara kwa. i even heard that ghanaians say he was shaky in post when he played in Kmsi. don't they know that it takes sometime to adopt to a new enviroment, esp a city full of illiterates and gyimifour? It takes time to build confidence and get used to a new area and new pple.I wish he can switch back to Norway because he would have been respected, appreciated and honoured there.What team does Razak Braiamah or Fatau Dauda play for, which country and what have they achieved there? I don't even want to go further because it seem like its a habit and cultural thing for ghanaians to criticise and talk bad about every good thing, and rather enjoy poverty and stick with mediocre people. even Look at what the current gov't is doing,misfiring and totally incompetent and you still hear so called leaders supporting him and also foolish people following him. I really thank God he took me out of this country. Its very sad and I wish I could do something to help, esp change their MINDSET because they think 'tooo little' and always see the negative in everything. total pessimists and mediocres. Ghanaians should change

Get you facts right. Kwarasey was not voted the best MLS goalkeeper, he won the best save. Secondly, typing 'Ghana Nkwasiafo' in a comment to a public news item is very childish and disrespectful to all Ghanaians.

Thanks USboi. You hit it with your comments.

I used to blame our mentality on the fact that we were colonized, and therefore lost our sense of common good. But, I don't hold that theory anymore because when you look at how other colonized countries (such as Singapore and India) have advanced, it makes you wonder if there is something else which is the matter.

I believe Ghanaians are just lazy and evil people who want to continue to sit in their shit,criticize people who are better off than them, and worship mediocrity, and people like Me4U don't want the world to know about it.
