GH social media users go after John Boye after Antonio Rudiger comparison

• Antonio Rudiger's Ghanaian fans have jumped to his defense after the German was compared to John Boye
• The Ghanaian defender John Boye was compared to Chelsea's Antonio Rudiger by Ex-Ghana International, Charles Taylor
• Taylor said John Boye in his prime was a better defender than the German

Ghanaian football fans on Twitter have mocked comparisons between Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger and John Boye, as the latter was touted lesser of the two.

"Arh John Boye", is how one fan reacted to the comparison sighted by YEN.com.gh.

The Al-Fayha defender was said to have been a better player than Rudiger in his prime by ex-footballer, Charles Taylor in an interview on Angel TV.

Other netizens ridiculed the comparison in their own ways, as one RP Jay Wap with the Twitter handle, @GeovanyWyklef, replied under one such troll with:

"I laugh saaa"

John Boye's Ghana Black Stars career seem to be over

Ghana's John Boye was a regular feature for the Black Stars until the last African Cup of Nations qualifiers when he was left out of the squad.

With 65 appearances and 5 goals to his name, John Boye is a house-hold name among the Ghanaian football fraternity.

Boye was notorious for his role in the shambolic 2014 Brazil FIFA world cup by the Ghana Black Stars, where he was said to have demanded bonuses and kissed the money bills.

Ghanaian football fans on Twitter are something else

In an earlier YEN.com.gh report, Ghana's Joseph Paintsil was congratulated by many football fans around the world except one for his outstanding showing against West Ham in the Europa League on Thursday night.

The Ghanaian fan under a Paintsil tweet sharing his feelings after the game, spotted by YEN.com.gh, blamed the slippery winger for "spoiling his bet" with his stellar outing for Genk.
