There&#8217;s so much competition the squad and any team that thrives on competition always end up victorious. That&#8217;s exactly what we have in Hearts because it&#8217;s evident that when a player goes out of the set up, that player is being replaced adequately,&#8221; Akowuah declared.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Therefore, if you are given a chance to play, you should make sure to give off your best because the one coming to replace could make you warm the bench for a long time. That&#8217;s one thing I&#8217;ve learned here, so I decided to improve my performance to meet up with the team, and the change was clear today. I&#8217;m not done yet and I know I can do more to help the club win laurels.&#8221;<\/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.
