Ahead of Black Stars opening game in the Africa Cup of Nations against Morocco, the Black Stars of Ghana may have to change the line up that will play for the team on Monday.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In yesterday\u2019s game, goalkeepers Manaf Nurudeen and Lawrence Ati Zigi were given the chance to justify why they should start ahead of Joseph Wallocot and Richard Atta. The two goalkeepers conceded all goals that were scored against Ghana. It is obvious Joseph Wallocot will be handed the starting berth for Black Stars on Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/80b2997a16674237a794abf7482f9353\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In defense, Andy Yiadom will need to start against Morocco from the right side. He has been the favorite choice in recent games. Baba Abdul Rahman will come for the left back position and do justice to it. His stint with the Senior National team gives him an upper hand over his competitors. The central area could only be manned by the pairing of Alexander Djiku and Daniel Amartey. The two defenders have been playing for Black Stars in recent games. They have gradually built an appreciable partnership that will be fruitful for the team at the biggest stage. Jonathan Mensah is a vital option but must be made to sit on the bench and come in when needed. Yesterday\u2019s game made a major point as to why Jonathan Mensah cannot command a starting role for the Black Stars of Ghana.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/890521c5cfbb4d39b955232fb8dff1f3\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In midfield, Baba Iddrisu must be deployed in the holding role. He has age and energy on his side hence cannot be benched for Mubarak Wakaso to start. Baba Iddrisu has enjoyed game time than Mubarak Wakaso and can only do better in the tournament. Thomas Partey should take over the central part of the midfield and do what he is known for.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On the wings, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku and Kamaldeen Sulemana are best options for Black Stars on Monday. The duo have proven over the months their readiness to play sumptuous football for the Senior National team. Whiles Kamaldeen Sulemana has been playing regularly for Black Stars, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is yet to command a position in the team.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2c5be0dba70e40f5b7c602484bd7e39e\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/548b4e838a67461e84ee50ad52a98cfc\"\/>In attack, Jordan Ayew and Benjamin Tetteh must be given the opportunity to handle affairs for the team in the final third. Recent matches have indicated the relevance of Jordan Ayew playing behind an arrows head. In the game against Morocco on Monday, Jordan Ayew must be allowed to operate behind Benjamin Tetteh which could give him the chance to also score.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Abdul-Jalilu (via  Opera<br \/>\nNews )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
