Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan has welcomed new coach Goran Stevanoic and has pledge his support for the new man.

Gyan, 24, however warned the coach to take it easy provided he is quick tempered due to the jovial nature of the team but conceded the team is prepared to play their hearts out for the new man like always.

"We will be behind him as players and play our heart out for the nation as we always have," he said .

"But we joke a lot so if he is quick tempered he should take it easy."

The Sunderland hitman said irrespective of whatever strategy the 44-year-old Serbian is bringing on board the team would adapt to it with time.

"Every coach has his program and how to achieve that. A new coach could mean new tactics, new training methods and a lot of things. But we know ourselves, we have been a group for so long and if there is anything we have done well, it has been our ability to adapt. We will get used to him in no time," he assured.

Stevanovic has agreed to a reported four year deal to become Ghana coach subject to a major review after two years.
