We need to sit down and evaluate these performances because losing matches like this is unacceptable.”I’m not happy, I’ve reached my breaking point. The players I count on to lead have fallen short, and that complicates everything.” he stated.Amount Rising Stars players earned as AFCON U20 allowancesThe former Kakamega Homeboyz tactician, who once guided his previous side to Mozzart Bet Cup title, expressed particular concern over the mental fragility displayed by his team in the second half of the season.“The second leg is always about mental toughness, and it’s clear that many of my players have lost that edge,” he added.“Without the right mindset, it’s difficult to deliver results, and I cannot continue fielding players who lack that hunger.”Naibois skipper lifts the lid on uncharacteristic NSL switchWith only a handful of matches left, the pressure is mounting on KCB to salvage a respectable finish.They now face a critical encounter against Bidco United on Monday 19 May, at Kenyatta Stadium in Machakos, a fixture that could either signal the beginning of a reputable finish or deepen the crisis.
