Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has claimed that he's the most committed Ghanaian player to have don the national team jersey.
Gyan has been in the news lately following Prince Tagoe's assertion that the Kayserispor forward should not have been handed the Black Stars armband ahead of other senior members of the team such as Sulley Muntari and Michael Essien.
The former Sunderland poacher had then been attacked by popular TV presenter, Nana Aba Anamoah on GH ONE TV that, he should be replaced by Andre Ayew as the leader of the team.
However, Gyan has not taken kindly to the criticisms by both personalities as he claimed that no player in the history of Ghana football is much more committed to the national team course than him.
"Which player has been very dedicated than me in the history of Ghana football, tell me? Gyan said as quoted by Happy FM.
"Which player has more caps for Ghana than me; I'm 32 years and still playing but if maybe there are some obstacles on my way doesn't mean I'm done. Fine, fair enough, we have a short career and I can decide to end my football career right now because nobody needs to play forever."
Gyan became Ghana's all-time top scorer with 50 goals to his credit when he scored in the Black Stars 5-0 walloping of the Walias of Ethiopia last year June.

WANING::!!!Every refugee receives passport given by United Nations. Never on this earth refugee receive the passport of that country except Ghana. Do our parlimantarians know law regarding refugees? Even refugee have to stay a while at least 5 years before he/she can apply for that country's nationality. If accepted then he/she can apply for travel documents such as passport. Therefore the whole thing concern these Guantanamo 2 is wrong and fault. They have to apply their refugee status from Ministry of Interior and if granted, 5 years later ask for citizenship. It will be totally wrong if the government fail to follow this refugee or international law. Ghanaians are watching oo. We live in Europe and this is what we go through or the process we follow.How can Ghana be so loose and cheap because of few money. Look what happened to our fellow brothers in Libya and Arab countries like Quatar etc.
TRUMUTRUMU ANAA ??? SARAH AND CASTRO ARE CRYING !!!!!!
forget this guy. committed and what did u win for the time? U managed to exchange the teams success for ur wealth, so shu>t up be4 i slap ur face over there. why wont u be committed when u know that is ur source of wealth. even when u can not play u will still be with the team just to make sure the things go ur way. U are the problem of the team and u know it. only children with small brains will think u did ur best for Ghana. well that is what it looks like but behind the scenes its terrible. one day the truth will come out. I do believe that Ghana will start doing well again once he quits and he has to do it now.
yeah u are right Captain ,am proud of you
Asamoah, don't mind them, they are jealous of you. who at all is that Tagoe guy? what did he do for Ghana football. let him go to hell
This can never be true. Black Stars did not start during your days. From 1957, we have had several proud and committed Ghanaians who played and won cups for the Black Stars and that was done selflessly with many of them earning peanut when compared to the huge sums of money you and your bunch of cup-less Black Stars squad demand before you play.
I am a life time admirer of Essien and I believe no one player can propel the Black Stars like him in his short time there. However, there were some rumours that he didn't want to be captain. Whether that was true or not is not the matter. As a nation we should let bygones be bygones and focus ahead. Bringing this back will not help anybody. Gyan is the captain and under his leadership the team has done wonders. The most unfortunate thing to happen is for Nana Aba Anamoah to shamelesssly advocate for his replacement. Those who like playing politics and tribalism with everything Ghanaian should think twice and put the nation first.
I AM NOT A FUN OF ASAMOAH BUT LETS FACE REALITY. THE GUY HAS DONE HIS BEST FOR GHANA AND SHOULD BE TREATED WELL.
Committed my foot! After paying your way through?, You play black Stars since 2004 as a striker and you have only 50 goals to your credit, how many top strikers have that poor records. Are you the only player in Ghana?
the Tagoe guy why he wants to be the captain or his just jealous. does he thinks captaincy is "you are old in the football team or etc" captaincy entails a lot and those he is suggesting for are not wealth it. he can look in for others but not those two.when even a classone pupils looks at it from the outside, mutari is not discipline those i love him in football and his payback stuff but that shouldnt be seen in a role model( captain) Essien cant even look in the camera to talk all in the name of shyness so what next to be searched for in the inside. Tagoe should fuuuuuck off. where did this come from koraaaa
