    I knew we would lose from the beginning.. Our players looked weak and tired comparing to the energetic Seneglese. Black Stars walked bath n forth on the pitch while our opponents ran .. Ayew was kaashi today.. All he did was give up possesion trying to show off. And the CLUELESS Avram Grant only subbed him with 5 mins left to play.. What a shtty game BS played today// VERY DISSAPOINTING

    Thank u GHANSON. WE DESERVED TO LOSE. The most horrible game l have ever watched. Dede was walking throughout. Central defence did not exist. Senegal outplayed us. What was Grants tactic in the second half? No wonder Chelsea dumped him. Just as poor as AA, if not poorer.

    Jordan is a total waste of time. he played nothing on the pitch apart from the pass he gave atsu. he is not a natural striker, he is a supportive striker. why was mahatma otoo on the bench?

    Jordan was truely outstanding but he did not get support upfront
  • Brento

    Ghana is playing too deep. We need a second striker n take out one midfielder
  • Kwame Adu-Gyamfi
    says: 9 years ago
    I see what Grant is doing but Ghana's players are too small and skillful to be playing a defensive game. If Gyan was on the pitch maybe it might work.
  • sam

    Jordan Ayew,the most useless player on the field and always have his shorts pulled to his bottom and all he's doing is complaining instead of playing ball.
