Majority Leader in Parliament, Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu, has expressed concerns about the continuous turnover of coaches for the Black Stars, following the dismissal of Chris Hughton and the entire technical team after the team's exit from the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
In an interview with Angel FM, Mensah Bonsu conveyed his dissatisfaction with the recurring dismissals of Black Stars coaches, emphasizing that frequent changes may impede the team's progress. He called for a more introspective approach, highlighting deficiencies among certain players.
"Constantly peeling off coaches is not going to help us. Some of the players were deficient. Between the Ayew brothers, I had more hope in Jordan than Andre because he's played his part. If we are to be truthful to ourselves, he no longer fits into the team; why don’t we address the issue at hand?"
"You force the player on the coach, and you don’t want to blame the player; rather, you blame the coach," remarked Mensah Bonsu.
The Black Stars faced an early setback in the 2023 AFCON, failing to advance to the knockout stage for the second consecutive tournament. Ghana finished third in Group B, drawing two games and trailing behind Cape Verde and Egypt.
Mensah Bonsu's comments contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the Black Stars' future direction as Ghana navigates its way forward in football strategy and leadership decisions.
