We carefully scouted them before bringing them on board and as the coach, I can say that we did a good job. It is now a matter of getting them to understand our philosophy and after that, we will be good to go,” the tactician said.”The good thing with young players is that they are keen to learn and they take instructions easily. We will surprise many when the league commences but for now, we want to work silently and keep improving every day”.Bidco boss admits difficulty in managing players as league kick stalls
