The words a physio says slowly. 16 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.
“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Christian Inusah after the 0‑0 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.
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.
Berekum Chelsea next, and one man in the BA All Stars dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

Amos Schlupp 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.
It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. BA All Stars told Hubert Gyau something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Words at BA All Stars training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Daniel Afful 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 have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what BA All Stars can pretend not to have heard.
Amos Schlupp 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.
At 23 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Daniel Afful was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
$150.0K is a serious amount of money and it does not play centre-forward. Everybody in the dressing room knows who used to be looked at when it went wrong.
“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 The request is on a desk at BA All Stars, and it is not being withdrawn.
He is going to Ashanti Gold, the club has $150.0K it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.
The name of Amos Schlupp has come up in conversations BA All Stars were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.
Dennis Konney 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.
