By the time 🇬🇭 Ghana appointed Carlos Queiroz, the Black Stars already had deep structural problems. No coach was going to overhaul this team in a few months.

The mistake many fans made was expecting Queiroz to become something he has never been.

His football has always been about organisation, discipline and tournament survival. Not attacking flair. Never.

So when Ghana defended better but struggled to create chances, it shouldn't have been a shock.

Jerome Opoku captured it perfectly after the Colombia defeat, telling me:
"We can defend, defend, defend but if we don't get that one goal to relieve pressure off the defense, then we can't succeed."

Exactly.

Ghana conceded just three goals in four World Cup matches, but scored only two despite having forwards like Antoine Semenyo, Jordan Ayew, Brandon Thomas-Asante, Kamaldeen Sulemana and Fatawu Issahaku.

That, my people, is no accident. It is the the trade-off for having the 73-year-old.

This isn't about blaming the forwards. Semenyo came into the tournament after arguably the best goalscoring season of his career. Brandon Thomas-Asante had earned a much bigger conversation about his role. Jordan Ayew often looked isolated. The issue wasn't simply personnel; it was the system.

And that system was exactly what Queiroz has built everywhere he has coached.

For me, he was the right man for a very specific job: stabilise Ghana, restore defensive credibility and guide us through the World Cup with respectability.

Mission accomplished.

But that's also why I don't think he should lead the next phase.

World Cup football and a qualifying campaign are different assignments.

The next Black Stars coach must build on the defensive foundation Queiroz has laid—but also unleash one of Ghana's most exciting attacking generations in years.

Thank you, Carlos.

You did the job you were hired to do.

Now it's time for someone else to take this team forward. I'll be surprised if the GFA allowed him to take us into the future.

Poland has signed a new law meaning that parents who have two or more children will be exempt from paying income tax on salary up to around €33.000

This is a good way to increase the birthrates.

Paris has one of the worse migrant crises I’ve ever seen.

Entire streets are void of French culture, migrant camps line the road, graffiti covers beautiful buildings & French women fear for their safety.

African migrants & women in hijabs are the norm:
