Squad

A one-man rearguard from Francis Schlupp

There were 10 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad

Andre Sulemana breaks a bone — 86 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 86 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Kwadwo Bukari at 21 — 8.03

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Kwadwo Bukari did not need any: 8.03, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Market

Kamaldeen Schlupp asks to leave BA All Stars

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match

Kwadwo Bukari’s goal not enough for BA All Stars

Kwadwo Bukari scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to Hearts of Oak, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

Albert Addo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Francis Schlupp 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

Andre Mohammed runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 18. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Loan watch

Francis Ayew has seen enough of New Edubiase United

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at BA All Stars, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad

Andre Sulemana breaks a bone — 102 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 102 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Nana Amoah asks to leave BA All Stars

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Tempers go at BA All Stars

Albert Boateng was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Heart of Lions come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and BA All Stars did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

Kamaldeen Schlupp puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at BA All Stars, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Kwadwo Bukari stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Kwadwo Bukari and BA All Stars agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Tempers go at BA All Stars

Albert Boateng was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Patrick Kudus falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Kwadwo Bukari asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.
