If we lose the match against Rwanda, our position on FIFA ranking will be affected. Ghana will drop down the ladder. So whether we have qualified or not, we still need our best players for the match. They must play together always for cohesion. We should not trust the home-based players to do the job. They cannot do it.

There is no competition for spots on the bstars. The local lg is weak but that shouldnt stop Grant from calling a player or 2 from the local lg to feature against minnow african teams like Rwanda and even in friendly games. What about our ghanaians players playing in egypt, current champions League champs mazembe and this in Sudan like okrah etc. Why have they been rejected from bstar callups? I don't understand why Grant continues to call useless players like John boye, briamah, accam, Atsu is inactive. We can't be recycling the same players all the time it's stupid!

It seems our hungry journalists are happy, when there is confusion between the sports ministry and the GFA.They also like to misquote the leaders in order to create troubles. Wizards.

It really does make sense to use some of the local players since we've already qualified for the group. But I believe the coach would like to use this game to to prepare for the upcoming friendly with the Russians

I agree with you but I think not all of them are stupid. I don't know why they find happiness in destructive news.

Why dont we look at germany.they won world cup, was by far most exciting and best team at euro 2016, their women won olympics gold and men won silver after penalties. Half of the olympics squad had already played for the meinschaft or senior side. So how will bs become better if it keeps using players who are losing all the time and are not even near to getting close to the fringe of the team rather than seek to strengthen the whole squad by giving play time to people very close to making first eleven? Just because some one is local they must be rewarded with bs call up even when they cant qualify for olympics, for u17 world cup, lose to japan who nigeria trashed, cant qualify for afcon, beating badly in cecafa etc when does enough become enough?osei kofi, osei kuffuor, etc these are strongmen and they say standard of league is low.are they wrong when 2 of the better players in the league so far have left or due to leave for foriegn?backward thinking indeed

Go on and use stupid players against russia in the first time we are visiting there and continue making us look stupid all the time and see if bs will be invited to play anymore high profile games. Everytime a serious player takes the field against a foreign side they must perform. Simple as. Whether you play for hearts, kotoko, medeama, chan, u17, u21 etc. Flop in thise and you still want to be in bs? Apuu

Why do we have to use local players instead of foreign based players who has already qualified the team? What sense does it make for us to use local players whiles those who sealed the qualification will be left out? We think we are smart as Ghanaians but rather create a problem for the team next time because if foreign players will qualified a team for local players to come brush the qualification for the money then next time no foreign players will play their heart out to qualify the team in their early matches till the last match and when they fail to win the last match then qualification will be out. We shouldn't think somebody will do the work for someone to come and cash in easily. Bamboo no go work for bamboo no chop. Those who started must finish it simple...

HERE IS THE SECRETE, NIIU LANTE WANTS COACH GRANT TO INVITE HIM TO JOIN THE B-STARS. YOU SEE, NII LANTE THINKS HIS PLAYING DAYS AT MANTSE AGBONA AND ARGONNAUTS PARKS IN ACCRA IN THE COLTS LEAGUE STILL MAKES HIM A VALID PLAYER. LET THE COACH CALL HIM, AFTER ALL HE WAS A VERY GOOD STRIKER IN THOSE DAYS. THIS DEVELOPMENT COULD BE THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF EITHER THE GFA OR NII LANTE, MARK IT. BUT NII LANTE WILL NOT SURVIVE.

Thank you boss. U r really a football person not just a follower. I wish d so called sports journalist in dis country will read Ur post and stop making dos stupid noise of using local players. They we not able to qualify for d chan tournament, they lost to Japan , they struggle to score goals in d local league. Our main stream black stars laboured to score just a goal in Rwanda n d minister is saying we shd use local players . if those rumours r true den d minister must shut up for once. He is a sports minister not a football minister . he promised to fix d score board at the Accra sports stadium but its still there untouched. He shd gv us a break n fix d score board for us.
