Squad

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Christian Ayew 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

Words at Liberty Professionals training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ghali Falke 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.

Squad

Mohammed Baba out for 37 days

The medical room confirms 37 days on the sidelines for Mohammed Baba, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Liberty Professionals

The unbeaten run reaches 13. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Player ratings

Christian Ayew scores twice — 9.00

Two goals and a mark of 9.00 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Christian Ayew 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

Samuel Waris 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.

Match

Liberty Professionals get the job done against Bechem United

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

Squad

The manager makes an example of Samuel Waris

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

Yaw Bukari shuts the door

Defensive actions: 19, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad

Mohammed Baba signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Mohammed Baba commits to Liberty Professionals for another 3 years.

Player ratings

A defender's afternoon for Andre Asamoah

Defensive actions: 16. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Player ratings

A brace, and David Inusah takes the afternoon — 8.43

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. David Inusah provided it, and the 8.43 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

David Inusah is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 22 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Liberty Professionals

Christian Ayew 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

A late step up for Christian Ayew

At 25 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Liberty Professionals

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match

Liberty Professionals see off Inter Allies

Three points for Liberty Professionals, 3‑2 the final word against Inter Allies in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Samuel Waris 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Anes Mokhtar

At 21 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.

Market

One of our own: Mohammed Baba joins the Liberty Professionals first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Mohammed Baba is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
