It's like when a team is going down, they begin to sound more drums. Same way south Africa was comparing themselves against us.

Father God please put us with Ghana in the AFCON.

PetroDolla2020:
[s]I don't even know why you Nigerians think you have a super team and Ghana has a horrible team. Well, i have been hearing these same noises from you nigerians over the years and yet Ghana keeps beating Nigeria every time. Currently, Ghana has a good team. Don't know how old you guys are, but you don't seem to know much about football, particularly African football.

I'm surprised, very surprised, to hear that Nigerians think they can beat Ghana. You guys never learn I have seen the Nigerian team play and they is nothing special about them, really. In fact, I will put my last pesewa on Ghana any day to beat Nigeria.[/s]

Appiah and muntari where available

Muntari was even the goal scorer against Uruguay,I can’t forget so soon

Essien missed out due to injury

12large1:
I wasn't a fan of Onuachu based on his horrible performance for SE and I'm not just talking about Goals his overall performance for SE was Atrocious prior to his last 2 games. In his last 2 games vs Benin, Lesotho, his overall performance was impressive and he capped it with 2 goals. This is why it's imperative to invite in form players because Confidence can be the difference between 0 goal and 1 goal

AndSunGorilla:
You are correct but Steven Appiah injury worries, contract issue and fitness affected him negatively. So my point is with a fit Appiah and fit Essien, maybe they could have even done better.

JohnBullMySon:
But what is wrong with this super league that the English media and UEFA are trying to paint black? it will not disturb champions league it will not disturb domestic league.

Why are they so jealous?

andrewbaba44:
Dem wan Dey stress players

How many games a season ?

Cup games league champions league now dem wan carry this one come

chrisooblog:
you have to understand what Andy is saying. Pepe on his own is a quality CB who I agree is better than most EPL defenders including Chelsea's bar Silva. Their are football formations that can cover the short comings of most defenders and have them looking like the second coming of Baresi. Rudiger is flourishing very well under Tuchel when we know on the best of days he's as jam body as it gets. Defenders like Pepe can do well in various setups like 4 or 3 at the back but guys like Rudiger or Christensen just mistakenly play them highline the way Dias and Stones do for City and you will think you are watching a comedy movie.

Is this true, or you're guessing?

You this guy, stop deceiving yourself, right now, Ghanaian football is dead. No single serious talent as Partey has been struggling since joining the EPL party. Salisu who I thought was gonna make a difference is right there rotting on Southampton bench. Though I rate Kudus, but he still has a long way to go. Your fullbacks are crap, from Raman to Lumor Agbenyenu, to Yiadom of Reading FC et al. Your center backs are crap from Boye to Aidoo, to Adams to Opoku. You don't have wingers neither do you have strikers because the Ayew brothers are washed up.

Besides Partey, unproven Kudus, bench warming Salisu and maybe Jordan Ayew, Ghana has no serious looking talents at present, yet you said you ain't dead? Bros, right now, talent wise, you are in the same league with the likes of Cape Verde, Gabon. DR Congo is slightly ahead of you, but Mali is definitely bigger than you because they have a good number of quality young players playing consistent top flight football in the top 5 leagues of the world, unlike the Ghana stars

PetroDolla2020:
[s]stop talking crap! You are talking like a novice. A football team is made up of 11 players, not 11 stars.

The problem with you Nigerians is that you don't learn. You keep repeating the same trash. I know years ago, not too long ago, Ghana playing Nigeria and Nigerians screaming to high heavens how they had stars and Ghana did not have any 'big' player. And yet in all those encounters, Ghana beat Nigeria. So don't be cocky with all these crap about having stars and Ghana not having anyone.

Ghanaians don't see Nigeria is a serious rival. Ghana has beaten Nigeria too often for them to take Nigeria seriously. Today, today, today if you play Ghana against Nigeria, Ghana will win. Tweaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Ghanaians won't even lose any sleep when they have to play Nigeria. You want to bet?[/s]

ChrisKels:
But you neither have the stars nor the players

That is the last squad named by CK Akunor your head coach. 98 percent of your squad is made up of tier-2 players, and you think you are better than ordinary Cape Verde?

PetroDolla2020:
you are clearly a novice in football. I have followed football long enough to see a team of "ordinary" players play and achieve great things. If you think having "stars" is a guarantee to success in football, then you are a complete novice. You have no idea how football works.

I recall in an crucial semi final game at Afcon, Nigeria came into the game talking big as usual. They said they were going to humiliate Ghana because Ghana had no known players while Nigeria was brimming with stars Midway in the first half. Ghana won a corner. Asamoah kicked the ball and Gyan outjumped the Nigerian defenders and headed the ball into the net. Come and see Nigerian players huffing and puffing all over the field. That was how Ghana booted Nigerians out to meet Egypt in the final Nothing has changed, bros. Nigeria can do all the talk, but Ghana will always win

ChrisKels:
Now you are running from pillar to post. I would have loved to meet you guys in the final phase of the world cup qualifiers but it is quite unfortunate you won't make it to that stage

PetroDolla2020:
if any team will not qualify, it is Nigeria. Ghana will always be a powerhouse in world football, and Ghana will beat Nigeria any day, any where

JohnBullMySon:
Is it not the clubs choice whether stress or not?

The stupid part of it is how English fans can be emotional for nothing.

ChrisKels:
Really? But you didn't qualify the last time, though you had better players then

PetroDolla2020:
"Better" players? The Ghana team today is the same team over the past five or so years. I don;t know why nigerian like to drink panadol for another person sef. I don't get it. Nigerians talk too much. You keep on boasting, and you keep on losing to Ghana. Haba when una go learn sense?

ChrisKels:
Lol it is obvious you don't even know the Ghanaian team as much as you claim, this below is your 2017 squad looking almost completely different and better than your current squad

PetroDolla2020:
Bros, leave matter. You know the Ghana team more than me? You don't get it, huh? The names may change by they play at the same tempo and same quality. In Ghana, we don't put premium on stars. We find a way to make the players play like a solid team. You can have starrs, and the they cannot play like a solid team. I will chose a solid, cohesive team than a team of 11 individual players any day. so, forget about Ghana not having stars or having stars. When they wear the national team, they play like possessed warriors. Ghanaians are warriors and we want to be seen as warriors. we leave the boasting and loud mouthing to Nigerians

Pepe currently will not make it as a first choice CB in any top EPL side considering the physicality as well as speed required, he just will not be able to cut it IMO

PetroDolla2020:
when was the last time you beat them? By the way, Nigerians are no taller than Ghanaians. Ghanaians are not midgets

It's actually a big shame that the "midget" has been beating the "giant" since

Very laughable and pathetic
