Simba FC forward Bernard Morrison furious over Black Stars snub after Nigeria draw
Simba FC forward Bernard Morrison has reacted furiously to his continuous snub by the Ghana Football Association over an invite to the national team.
Morrison feels he has been ignored because of he plays in Africa despite the belief that he is better than some of the players invited.
After the Black Stars’ game against Nigeria, the former Ashantigold forward took to Twitter to vent his spleen.
“Imagine getting ignored all because of these attackers downgrading the league you play in because others got the chance and luck to be in European leagues and clubs outside Africa. They’ve made the Ghana National team like family business, you don’t get invited if you are not linked,” he started.
“What’s sooo special about these attackers that we cant represent the nation?? You look down on the leagues in Africa but u call players from the Ghana league into the national team imagine players from Ghana league that don’t even play champions league,” he added.
“You don’t blow your own trumpet” but sometimes u state the fact as and how it is. I chose jersey number 3 because Asamoah Gyan is the best striker I looked up to from childhood, which I believe he’s better in all areas, but to be not recognized because of these,” he continued in a Twitter rant.
“Attackers we call into the national team its better to focus on Simba SC duties and forget about this most African national teams give chances to players in the local league and even within Africa. Ghana is not like that. U will be noticed only when u have someone to.
“Talk to people in the federation I played for AS Vita, Orlando Pirates and now for the biggest in Tanzania Simba SC, but never was I recognized because I’ve got no friend there.
““Tanzanian League is not that good” but you call 2 players from into the national team while Simba beats this club that the players came from. All because they have links into the national team. Let me end here because I can go on and on.”
