Masa, do u keep records at all? Baba Rahman was 20yrs old during the under 20 world cup, and after 2yrs, he's still 20yrs?? Agyemang-Badu was 20yrs at the 2009 under 20 world cup, and after 6yrs, u tel us he's 24? Solomon Asante was my cousin's mate in Jhs... Ma cousin is now 33... And u tel us Asante is 24? Masa, its this same negligence that has led to the ban of our starlets.... Pls be truthful small wai... And do ur research well ..

All of u who have countered me are obviously those who support overaged players... Inkoom has 4 children now...journalists say he's 24... His wife, Omega is 29... And i know u know he's certainly older than her... Or because he's smallish, u'll defend his age? John Mensah says he's 33... He got divorced last yr after a 15year marriage... So u mean he was 18 when he married? God is watching u all.
