Words at Wa All Stars training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Adeyemo Bolaji 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.
“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 Wa All Stars, and 0 appearances in 27 say he has earned the hearing.
5 goals in 20 games at WAFA — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Wa All Stars updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Wa All Stars can pretend not to have heard.

At 18, Jeffrey Gyan is already the best thing here
An average of 7.07 in a first team he is several years too young for. Wa All Stars have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Wa All Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
“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 Wa All Stars, and 0 appearances in 22 say he has earned the hearing.
Berekum Chelsea will want this one forgotten quickly: 5‑1, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Wa All Stars were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.
7 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.
Junaid Sait 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.
6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Wa All Stars and Berekum Chelsea in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Another one collected away from home
4 on the bounce on the road for Wa All Stars. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.
13 goals and a season average of 7.24. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Two goals and a mark of 8.32 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Successful dribbles: 27. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Jeffrey Gyan, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.60
A mark of 7.60 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.
3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

A 2‑1 win over Asante Kotoko, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.
“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.

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Mohammed Bukari provided it, and the 8.25 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

12 goals and a season average of 7.29 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Andre Waris was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.26. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

7 new faces, and Wa All Stars are still learning each other
A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.
At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.08 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.
4 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.
Mehdi Khallati 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.
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Andre Waris. 2‑0 against Hearts of Oak, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

He is doing things on a Saturday afternoon that nobody around him can answer, which is flattering for about one season and a problem after that. Aduana Stars will not keep him by pretending otherwise.
5 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

The name of Albert Mohammed has come up in conversations Wa All Stars were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.
There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Wa All Stars know it, and so does everybody who watches him.
