APPIAH RETURNS

Ghana’s favourite son is back or should I say Kotoko’s star boy is back. Judging from the poor management of Ghana’s former coach - Avram Grant, It was imperative that Ghanaian fans will turn on him . Coach Avram Grant’s stay in Ghana as the head coach of the senior side and earning close to about 250,000 cedis was seen as greedy and wicked by ordinary citizens who hardly made any income in the supposedly corrupt Government, that was sent packing in the 2016 general elections. Avram Grant left the coaching position and the Country in the first week of February,2017 after repeated speculations that he was going to be fired within that month – could say he prevented a major career disgrace! Avram Grant will surely not be missed by Ghanaians in anyway ,but one person who’s exit from the senior national side was missed by most Ghanaians in the “Don of Grant”  was Ghana’s own James Kwesi Appiah ,who managed the senior side from 2012-2014 and went into the record books as the first Ghana

POGBA UNDERRATED

Paul Pogba was bought at a record 89 million ponds -- The highest Man U has ever spent on a player. Paul Pogba's extraordinary transfer fee could have been avoided had Alex Ferguson not sold him to Juventus, whiles he was trying to find grounds at Old Trafford. Paul Pogba has widely been criticized for his pathetic performance at the Old Trafford and has been cited as one of the most disappointing transfers in the club's history.

RONALDINHO RETIRES

We all knew it was just a matter of time before Ronaldinho unofficially called it quits in football, but just like all the great things,  it came unexpectedly and the FOOTBALL world is proud and sad at the same time. Ronaldinho brought something that had been missing in the game of football --Style. Football had style way before Ronaldinho came, but after seeing his style and craft, we knew we had been seeing garbage all those times. He had the pace of a Ferrari and Turing force of an F16 Raptor. He literally moved pass anyone who faced him in a duel and sometimes managed to get some little time off to entertain fans to do that extra dribble for the joy of millions. The world has been flooded by footballers who try to imitate  Ronaldinho's style of play but the never gets to that level we saw in Ronaldinho. Everybody wants to be like Ronaldinho after watching his Videos but never has anyone reached the pinnacle of Ronaldinho's success, except Ronaldinho himself
