Ex-Ghana Under-17 assistant coach Isaac Opeel Boateng wants ‘lazy’ Avram Grant sacked for naming a ‘useless’ squad ahead of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Mauritius.

The former Chelsea gaffer kept majority of the players who played for the Black Stars during the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations in Equatorial Guinea.

The 60-year-old failed to give players on the fringes a chance to fight for a place with Portugal-based Bernard Mensah the only new face in his team.

He kept faith with under-fire goalkeeping trio Fatau Dauda, Razak Brimah and Ernest Sowah for the clash at the Accra sports stadium on June 14.

And the former Kotoko assistant coach has been angered by the list released on Tuesday, labeling the Israeli as a lazy coach who must be fired.

“Avram Grant is a lazy coach. Even my mother can give us a better list. It is a useless list.” he fumed on Asempa FM

“Look at the goalkeeping department. Some players don’t deserved call-ups. He must be sacked.

“He chooses to stay in England and asks his assistant to monitor the locally based players. What kind of foolish attitude.”

    Opeele should let us think with his baseless allegations. he thinks coaching is radio. what did he do to kotoko, tema youth and even u17. somebody should tell opeele to keep mute.

    Well, I tink Opeele went about it in a more angry way but I think he is right...If Avram went across America n Europe to bring out the same old squad, he is not doing a good job... Lets be fair, If he was, guys like Seidu Salifu, Assifuah, Enoch Adu Kofi n more others who are playing regularly should be here...than the Wakaso, jona, kwesi Appiah who have had very few games this season...If we don't bring our performing young guys in now, when are we going to? when they loose the form...we hav killed lots of talents with this attitude n it must change.....

    Opeele talks too much, What was he even able to do at Kotoko He should leave the man to concentrate, if was better he would have been appointed He was there when Kwesi Appiah was appointed as the coach
