Chris Hughton is doing what we are expecting from him - Kudjoe Fianoo

Published on: 04 April 2023

Kudjoe Fianoo, President of the Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA), believes newly appointed Black Stars head coach, Chris Hughton, is doing what is expected of him.

The former Brighton and Hove Albion manager signed a 21-month contract as the Black Stars boss and took charge of his first two games against Angola in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in March.

Reacting to Hughton’s performance in the two games, where Ghana won at home and drew away, he said Ghanaians usually place too much expectations on Black Stars coaches.

“They are doing what we are expecting of them; to qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations,” he said at the sidelines of an event attended by footballghana.com.

“Now, let’s cross that bridge and we will look at the materials that we have, look at the opponents we are going to play, then ask him what he can offer.

“Most of the time we force them or our expectations are high that we think we can just go in there and rule over everybody but look at what Guinea-Bissau and the rest are doing.”
