I knew that he was going to lived up to expectations following his reappointment ahead of all the applicants for the hot seat,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201d My attention is now on the under 20 national male team and I am looking forward to get the opportunity to coach the lads at the youth level having missed the chance to manage the Black Stars so far,\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dI would say the Black Satellites coaching role remains my topmost priority and I do not expect the Ghana FA to overlook me for the job. I am always ready to handle a national team and I think it is now my turn to do so,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>The former Asante Kotoko trainer believes his cordial relationship with his entourage will make him a better coach in handling the youth side as he will bring the best out of them at their budding stage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dI have been with different set of players at any club that I have coached before and one thing that I have taken notice when I am with these lads is that they always feel excited to be around me right after our training sessions,\u201d the former Al Ain FC kingpin noted.<\/p>\n<p>ALSO READ:  Black Stars B Defeat Togo in an international freindly<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nHe continued: \u201dYou will see us playing joyfully and some will be saying coachee\u2026 coachee\u2026 we want our winning bonuses to be increased and you must try and convince management to do so on our behalf.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dSome even go to the extent of saying we want to come and eat in your house so tell your wife to be ready for us.
