Sports broadcaster Patrick Osei Agyemang, also known as Countryman Songo, has strongly criticized Black Stars coach Chris Hughton, accusing him of failing to establish a clear playing style for the national team.
With only one victory and two draws in recent matches since Hughton’s appointment, concerns have been raised by fans who desire to see the team achieve more wins.
Countryman Songo, a vocal critic of the Black Stars, expressed his disappointment with the team’s recent performance against Madagascar.
According to him, Chris Hughton has not been able to coin a playing style for the Black Stars and this has been evident in the poor performance of the team.
“We have to be able to tell the formation and tactics that the Black Stars are playing. What is the system that this coach is playing, he doesn’t have one. We haven’t developed the Black Stars.
“Let’s pay attention to our Black Stars and criticise them because their style of play is not nice currently,” Songo said.
He added that the Black Stars already have a playing style which is known by many football fans and all the coach has to do is to build on it to be able to be successful.
“Football has developed to the extent that everyone is playing European football but still when you go to South America there are teams that have still maintained their DNA and added a little of European football,” he said.
Adding, “Those days in the Black Stars the midfielders spread the ball to the wings and were sending in the crosses from left and right. Now we don’t see that but that is the DNA of Ghana football.”
