Ghana CAN Squad- An extra $3,000 for this?

Ending days of percolating speculation grandmaster Dujkovic has taken the cautious route, leaving off Michael Essien from the CAN squad. As the filing deadlines passed, there was talk of heated intercontinental discussions about potentially uplifting news. Instead, the Stars are left with a $3,000 late filing fine and a considerably weakened midfield sans Essien and Asamoah Gyan.

I would say that captain Appiah has quite the tough row to hoe keeping spirits up.
