Ghana captain Asamoah Gyan is confident he is providing good leadership for the Black Stars despite a scathing criticism of his ability to lead the squad by the country's 2014 World Cup Commission.

The UAE-based striker insists he is not bothered by the damaging report by Ghana’s Presidential Commission of Inquiry disastrous campaign at the 2014 World Cup.

The Dzamefe Commission attacked the leadership qualities of Gyan in their report in the wake of the protests and the refusal of the players to train at the World Cup over the unpaid World Cup appearance fees during the tournament in Brazil.

Despite the scathing remarks by the commission and their recommendation for him to undergo training, Gyan insists he is focused on doing his job and confident in his leadership style.

"It doesn't [bother me] at all because I am not fake," he told Metro TV.

"Of course [about leading the team well], I am 100 percent sure everybody is ok. I never discriminate, even if you come to the camp you’ll never know who is the captain."

The Al Ain ace refuses to accept that he is lacking leadership skills to lead the Black Stars.

    That comment by the Committee is so disappointing to say the least. Were they expecting Asamoah Gyan to bind the players with ropes and carry them to the training grounds? If a whole nation represented by people who are supposed to be leaders fail to keep their word, what reaction should you expect? Even the Holy Bible says God, the Creator gets angry when we don't keep promises. Ecclesiastes 5:4 "When you make a vow to God, do not delay to fulfill it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow". The Bible goes on to describe those who do not keep their promises as fools. Was it Asamoah Gyan who should have paid the money to the players? finding a scape goat, I guess.
