Former Ghana skipper Asamoah Gyan says if he was in charge of Black Stars, certain players wouldn't play for the team because they are not competitive enough.
According to Gyan, players should give coaches selection headache ahead of games
Speaking to Asaase Radio in an interview, the former Sunderland striker said, "Of course, it's obvious but you don't show it. You are in a group and you need to bring everybody together."
"It's a normal thing you can say to that 'oh this player, if I were (to be the coach) he wouldn't play' but it is not in your power to do that.
"You are leading the team and you don't have to show these things, you have to bring everybody together. But sometimes I feel like if I had my way this (player) would not be there.
"Because in the national team, we need people that can give the coach headache."
Gyan is the all-time leading goalscorer of the Black Stars with 51 goals. He has represented Ghana at three World Cups ( 2006, 2010 and 2014)
With 6 goals, he is the top African goalscorer in the history of the World Cup.
The 36-year-old has also played in seven Africa Cup of Nations tournaments (2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019) helping them finish in third-place in 2008 and runner-up in 2010 and 2015.
