"So Jordan Ayew no fit play together with Felix Gyan?? Yu ppl dey disrespect Jordan too much".

One Don also tweeted:

"Personally I think Milo is not using Jordan Ayew well that is why he hasn't been impactful in our recent games. The wings isn't his position. If you look at it tactically the perfect place to position him is in the stands. I think he can see the game clearly from there."
