Former Hearts of Oak midfielder Anthony Annan has urged the current players of the club to give out their best in order to restore lost glory.
The Phobians has endured a torrid Ghana Premier League campaign, losing six out of their last seven games in the Ghanaian top-flight.
The club’s defeat at home against RTU have dragged the team into the relegation mire as they are 11th on the league standings with 45 points which makes their final match away to Berekum Chelsea a must win.
In an interview, the former Ghana midfielder admitted the standard of Hearts of Oak has fallen and has therefore entreated the players to give their all in order to make the club great again.
"We all know the difficulties the club is going through but I want to urge the players that it is part of football and that they should continue to give out their best even despite the tough times", he told Pipapipa Media from his base in Norway.
"When you play your hearts out for the club, there are opportunities for you because it is a big club. The current players must work hard to bring back the glory days of the club because the standard of hearts has fallen", he added.
Anthony Annan joined Hearts of Oak in 2005 from Hasaacas and featured for the club until 2007.
He had spells with Hasaacas and Hearts of Oak before departing for greener pastures.
The midfielder, who is yet to call it a quit had stints with Schalke 04, 1860 Munich, Osasuna, Beitar Jerusalem and others.
