Bidco United shot stopper John Otieno has set his eyes on being feted as the best custodian at the end of the season.Otieno joined Bidco at the start of the season from Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) side Kariobangi Sharks.The custodian missed Bidco’s opening three matches but managed to cement his position in the team, being preferred between the sticks ahead of Malvin Nderitu and Daniel Odiwuor.The lanky glove man has been consistent in goal, being involved in ten matches for the Thika-based outfit, managing five clean sheets to his name, three shy of Kevin Omondi of Gor Mahia, who leads with eight. His presence between the sticks has equally seen coach Anthony Akhulia men pose one of the meanest defences, conceding partly nine goals, four and one less than Gor Mahia and Posta Rangers sides, who have leaked in five and eight goals, respectively. McKinstry challenges fans to dare dream of a record 21st title##NAJAVA_MECA_7722038##Speaking to Mozzart Sport, the former Kisumu All Stars ace says he believes in challenging for the golden glove award and equally heaped praise on his teammates for the achievements gained so far in the season.”Being named the best keeper at the end of the season will be a great personal achievement, which I believe is every custodian’s dream. I am glad with my performance, but I must also appreciate my fellow mates’ efforts, which have seen me manage the five clean sheets.”The ex-Kisumu Hot Stars rookie voiced his thoughts on the team’s current performance, terming it a fair start and hoping they can go all the way to a respectable finish when the season culminates.”We are having a much better start compared to last season, which has impacted the positive atmosphere in the team. There is a mutual understanding amongst the playing unit and the technical bench, and this has greatly worked in our favour. I believe if we can keep grinding out results and ensuring we minimise the losses, then we will definitely have a solid finish,he added.Next up for Bidco is a home fixture against the AFC Leopards on Sunday.
