    What the f*ck ? our defence is appalling, goalkeeper didn't really make any saves, our so called defensive minded midfielders are charging upfield but strolling back, our attackers are making absolutely NOTHING happen in the opposition third.. terrible game Ghana. You surely did not inspire any confidence tonight. Possession means nothing in the modern game if your incisiveness is lacking. Next game must be drastically better.. anyway BLACKSTARS FOR LIFE F*CK THE HATERS !

    The earlier we bring kwarasey back the better.com. This Braimah guy shaa waa as olele noted. goalkeeper trainer Nasamu must go. This is a very average team. .and the earliest we beef up the team..The better. What's the GFA doing about players like Elvis MANU ..Mitch Apau and co.? This was a game to unearth new guys to beef up the team. We didn't need to play most of the known guys. By the way...boakye yiadom has made his case already... and avram grant must cast net wider

    All I can say is that at least Boakye Yiadom scored. Let us start from there.

    We need to blend the likes of David Ogya and Ebenezer Assifuah so that we can know how they will relevant to us going forward.

    Let's look for established defenders..the black stars defense is the team's assets that use to be. The look for a safe goalkeeper must continue.
