I haven’t struggled or even felt out of place only that I have to improve on positioning and winning aerial balls. I wouldn’t mind playing in midfield once our centre backs recover from injuries,” he said.Meanwhile, the midfielder believes that the team is still in course to achieve the objectives of the season, current form notwithstanding.The bankers who finished as runner up last season have won once in the last eight rounds and consequently, they trail league leaders Kakamega Homeboyz by 14 points witu ten rounds remaining in the season.” We are still in line to better our last season’s tally and achieve what we set before the season began.We are tring our best and hopefully, we will peak again,” he said.
