Godwion Ablordey on Chris Hughton Assessment : Former Asante Kotoko and King Faisal midfielder Godwin Ablordey believes head coach of the Black Stars of Ghana Chris Highton can only be properly assessed at the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations if Ghana qualifies for the tournament.
According to the current assistant coach of King Faisal FC , relegated from the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season , the former Brighton and Holve Albion manager has not taken charge of enough matches and therefore a fair assessment cannot be done now based on just qualifying games.
The Ghana gaffer was criticized by fans following the recent 0-0 away qualifying draw against Madagascar but Ablordey thinks it is too early to bash the Black Stars trainer.
“We can only properly assess the coach at the AFCON tournament if we qualifies. How many games has he played now? I think three and these are qualification games. ” , Godwin Ablordey said to Kumasi-based Fox FM.
“But if Ghana qualifies for the tournament then we can use the AFCON to judge his work because that is what we need most. We have not won the African Cup for a very long time.
So I think we should be patient with him and see what happens at the AFCON if we are able to make it.” , the former Ghana Premier League player added.
