Everyone has their own strengths in helping us achieve our goals but I think when I play with Inonga I’m happier because we communicate better,” Joash told Mwanaspoti.The 29-year-old has been the most preferred center back at Simba helping them have a sturdy defense that has only shipped in six goals thus far this season.Team spirit 🥇💯🎓 pic.twitter.com/whKLOw4zc9— Joash_onyango12 (@joashonyango12) July 28, 2021 Joash emphasized the importance of good communication from the goalkeeper to the backline when defending.“A good defense is one that communicates and has some understanding in order to make Aishi Manula’s work easier.We are supposed to have good communication from the goalkeeper all through the defense in order to deal with the opposition’s attack,” added Onyango.
