Match

6 matches without a win for Liberty Professionals

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around Liberty Professionals are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Words exchanged at Liberty Professionals

Kwame Sulemana and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

A row about effort at Liberty Professionals

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Samuel Appiah was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

Half-satisfied: Ernest Appiah on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

The dugout

The form table has caught Isaac Gyan

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

Match

No goals between Liberty Professionals and WAFA

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. WAFA will be the happier side with the point.

The dugout

Isaac Gyan knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Liberty Professionals, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout

Mohammed Gyan has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Liberty Professionals will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Player ratings

Edmund Boakye runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 9. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

The cup run ends for Liberty Professionals

1‑1 against Hasaacas, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Player ratings

What a way to start for Osman Gyan — 7.22

0 on the scoresheet on his first appearance and a mark of 7.22 beside it. Most debuts are got through; this one was enjoyed, by him and by everybody watching it.

Squad

Sharif Shuaib keeps Liberty Professionals in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings

Mohammed Gyan, 17, plays like he has been here for years — 7.74

A mark of 7.74 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 17-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Match

4 matches without a win for Liberty Professionals

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Liberty Professionals are no longer polite ones.

Squad

A falling-out at Liberty Professionals

Samuel Appiah and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match

Nobody could stop scoring

7 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Liberty Professionals and Hasaacas in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Squad

David Wakaso is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 17 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

The dugout

Andy Ezekiel gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

Mohammed Gyan could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.27

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.27, 0 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Squad

A falling-out at Liberty Professionals

Albert Djiku and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Samuel Appiah is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Mohammed Gyan

At 17 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match

Liberty Professionals get the job done against New Edubiase United

A 1‑0 win over New Edubiase United, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

The afternoon belonged to Harrison Mensah

A mark of 7.99, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Ernest Appiah kept it short after the 1‑0 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.

The dugout

Isaac Gyan dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Squad

A first team debut at 17 for Mohammed Gyan

Off the academy pitches and into a senior shirt, at 17. The parents in the stand will keep the programme, and so will he.
