That’s the crux of it - Gyan’s separating results from coaching ability. Addo gets the World Cup qualification on his record, even if the AFCON miss and those heavy friendly losses cost him the job.
Qualifying for a World Cup isn’t small, especially when you consider Ghana had to get through a tough CAF campaign to make it. Gyan’s point about “the big men” making the call is spot on too. Federations often decide a change is needed for momentum and optics as much as tactics.
Queiroz vs Mexico on May 22 will be the first real look at what he’s changing. Mexico’s a good test - technical, quick, and they’ll press high. If Ghana can hold their shape and get a result there, it’ll settle nerves fast.
