Coach Kwesi Appiah complains about Black Stars lacking psychologist

The coach of the Ghana Black Stars is not happy that the Ghana Black Stars currently does not have a psychologist

The former Black Stars skipper was speaking to Happy FM and he was not a happy with the fact he had to play the role of technical leader and psychologist on every match day with the Ghana Black Stars.

"We don’t have a team psychologist and secondly we try to psych the players and let them feel at home.

“But psyching a player to feel that way takes time and the player has to put that into practice in a game and show what he has to the crowd."

He also made known of the fact that a psychologist in a team as that of the Ghana Black Stars is vital to the progression of the team.

"When you put a new team together and they play at home, there are times they will panic if they are not able to get an early goal. The team psychologist has to play a role in this but the team has no psychologist, he added”.

The Ghana Black Stars had Joseph Mintah as the team psychologist during Avram Grant’s stint with the team but was not included in the technical team in the new setup led by Coach James Kwesi Appiah.
