It&#8217;s okay by us, we only wish the team well. The boys have done their part for the team and will continue to do anytime they&#8217;re called upon. Andre once bought travelling tickets to some of his teammates, so I think the boys have contributed so much to the team,&#8221; Tackie declared on Happy FM.<\/p>\n<p>Tackie was quizzed whether coach Kwesi Appiah expatiated his reason for excluding the duo from the squad.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know of any reason. The coach will be best person to answer that question but we&#8217;re not bothered at all. The most important thing is the boys have not been dropped from their club sides. They will play against each other on Saturday, that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re thinking about about,&#8221; Tackie stated.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
