The Kenyan international called on his colleagues to believe in themselves in the remaining five matches and fight for a respectable finish.Mutinda named new KCB FC captain“We are doing everything right in training and on the pitch but I feel luck is against us. Football can be cruel sometimes and in our case it is not different. We only need to forget about the past matches and believe that we will do better in the subsequent ones. No amount of training will change our fortunes, confidence and team work will do,” offered the former Thika United man.Mutinda joined the bankers in November 2018 from the defunct Thika alongside Baraka Badi.
