Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Kamaldeen Ayew

19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Wa All Stars lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Andre Partey

Successful dribbles: 29. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

Gladson Asamoah, 33, rolls back the years — 8.42

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.42 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad

Abraham Acquah is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.50 with 16 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Market

Only the photograph left for Abdul Paintsil

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Abdul Paintsil will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Wa All Stars the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Words exchanged at Wa All Stars

Christian Tonah 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.

Match

Wa All Stars get the job done against Liberty Professionals

A 2‑0 win over Liberty Professionals, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Abraham Acquah in the eights

A performance of 8.63 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

The dugout

Nana Appiah has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Nana Appiah on a 2‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Market

Wa All Stars say no — this time

The offer from Unisport Bafang for Gladson Asamoah was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Transfer targets

David Chinagorom due for a Wa All Stars medical

Everything agreed with Abia Warriors, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Samuel Mensah signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Samuel Mensah and Wa All Stars agree another 5 years.

Squad

Words exchanged at Wa All Stars

Samuel Mensah 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 Wa All Stars

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

The dugout

Samuel Mensah knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Samuel Mensah trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
