Mohammed Ahmed Polo: Not arguably, it is undisputably, the greatest football dribbler. Soccer professor was his accolade. One of the very best in the world.
Thomas Hammond: Mr First in the Air was a defender who could jump and soar above every player to either clear aerial balls with scissor kicks or headers. A very unique style not performed anywhere in the world.
Shamo Quaye: The attacking midfielder was magical in his touches. He could issue marvellous strikes from any angle at goal. His dumbfounding skills could decide any tie, at least he could pull the chestnuts from any blazing fire.
Opoku Nti: The supreme goal-getter was talismanic. He was peerless at his peak and his back heels were revelations. His spirit reflected those of the gods. Extraordinary.
Frimpong Manso: Who could go past this defender? He was fearless and ready to confront attackers. There was power in his sliding tackles. Dependable defender.
Ishmael Addo: Woe betide any defence which allowed the ball to fall on the foot of this striker. He did not miss scoring opportunities inside the 18-yard box. His knack for goals was simply fantastic.
Sarfo Gyamfi: A positively tempestuous player whose fighting spirit and hard play provided grit in midfield. Results never swung against his side if he was in the team.
Ablade Kumah: Talent par excellence. Dribbled, stylish play, probing attacking play, assistant to arrowheads, yet he was also an arrowhead that could pierce iron-clad defences like a perforating stiletto.
Abedi Ayew Pele: Opposing sides looked out for him more than the rotund leather rolling on field of play. It was because his presence on the pitch appeared to make the football double, and if you chased the ball, he the player could do something different to the ball and dismantle your fortress.
Isaac Nana Eshun: Flawless defender. He was always part of the coordination.
Sam Johnson: A powerhouse that gave others no breathing space with his sheer power and drive. A wondrous player present in the pound-for-pound fight.
Anthony Yeboah: Classic striker. Fit for superstar.
Joseph Debrah: His mobility upfront was like the full force of a tidal wave or burst pipe, plunging defenders in helter-skelter.
Thomas Boakye: Amazing speedster whose forays created pandemonium.
Louis Agyemang: Unsung hero whose skill put him in the realms of the uncommon. Vastly under-utilized nationally before entering his twilight.
Dan Quaye: Great defender who made a lot of difference fighting for balls and projecting a barrier in front of goalposts.
Asamoah Gyan: Mr good finisher. Mr goal thief. Mr one of the very best Ghana has ever produced. Mr dangerous around penalty boxes.
James Ebo Smith: No wonder you got a national call-up. Your dribbling skills were above board.
