Maxwell Konadu, a former Ghanaian assistant coach, has expressed concern about the current era's lack of tolerance for football coaches, especially among Ghanaian fans.
Despite the challenges of contemporary coaching, his comments follow growing pressure on national team managers.
According to Konadu, a former head coach of Asante Kotoko, the football culture has become more results-driven. Coaches are praised for victories but swiftly chastised for poor ones.
He claims that this tendency is not only demoralizing but also harmful to long-term team building.
In particular, he urged more tolerance for Otto Addo, the head coach of the Black Stars, who came under heavy fire for failing to lead Ghana to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
There were several requests for Addo's removal at the time because he had failed to win any qualifiers.
However, with consecutive wins over Chad and Madagascar in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, the former Dortmund scout has recently regained some confidence.
With 15 points, Ghana now leads its group, rekindling hopes for a comeback to the international scene.
