Ghana have the youngest squad in the World cup. The Defence
is weak and inexperienced. Against Portugal and Germany there will be goals and
I expect them to fall at the first hurdle in the group and that is purely
because of the weak inexperienced defence. However I actually think they are
very good in midfield and not bad up front. Kevin-Prince Boatang, Sulley
Muntari and Michael Essien are all well known for playing both England and
Italy.
The guy im most looking forward to watching is Kwadwo
Asamoah. The Juventus Midfield player can play central or wide left and I think
this is hi world cup to show off what he can do. I also like Emmanuel
Agymang-Babu who plays for Udinese. I saw him play a few times this year and I
really like him as a footballer. Loads of energy. They have the Ayew brothers
Jordan and Andre who play in France for Marseille. If your a Fifa computer game player you may
know Abedi Pele who is always in the Fifa legends squads well his real surname
is Ayew and his is the father of both Jordan and Andre.
You may remember Asamoah Gyan for nothing more than his
Penalty 4 years ago that crashed off the crossbar and effectively put Uruguay
through after Suarez handballed it on the line. Well you may be surprised to find out that he
is still only 28 years old and is about to compete in his 3rd world
cup. Ghana have got out of the group on the last to occasions knocking out USA
both times (either in the group or in the 2nd round) they also play
Germany again after being in the same group as them 4 years ago and joining
them out of the group in the knockout stages and facing the USA who they beat.
No African team has got closer to the semi finals than Ghana but don’t expect
that to change this world cup.
The Group is tough. I expect Portugal and Germany to go
through. Defensively they are just better than the USA and Ghana. Im not saying
that Ghana or the USA cannot cause a shock and go through but I just don’t think
they will. But there is a shock every year so maybe this year it will be
Germany or Portugal going out group stage.
Star man: Kevin Prince Boatang
One to watch: Kwadwo Asamoah
Prediction: Group Stage
