Ghana coach Otto Addo has candidly spoken to defender Gideon Mensah over concerns about his defending after the World Cup qualifiers against Chad and Mali. The Auxerre left-back has been heavily criticised in the September window after struggles in both games, despite Ghana picking four points out of the maximum six.
After the game against Mali, Addo disclosed at the post-match conference he has had talks with the player, telling him to simplify his play. "I think sometimes he is a little too confident and after the Chad game we had some talks.
Everyone who has played football at the highest level will understand.
Gideon sometimes makes deception, one inside and one outside.
