Gor Mahia identify areas to be bolstered

With the June transfer window around the corner, Gor Mahia are planning the areas that will need to be bolstered. Gor Mahia will be looking to add depth not just for the second leg but also for upcoming events like the CECAFA cup, FKF cup and KPL top 8.

According to organizing secretary Ronald Ngala, coach Nuttall has already identified the areas he wants to bolster.

“The coach has communicated on the areas he would like us to strengthen. He has told us that he wants a striker, a central defender and an attacking midfielder and we are waiting to a report from him on whether he has identified any specific targets before we embark on recruiting” said Ngala to futaa.com

Two weeks ago, club official Naima Aketch announced that the club was trying to bring back Dan Sserunkuma on an open contract that gives him the leeway should a better offer come up. Last week Ngala said that Rama Salim was due to rejoin the club. The move is now in doubt with Rama himself having denied that he is undecided.

“It is upon him to make his decision if he is not interested in joining us then  that is okay, we will definitely look for other available options, we are yet to engage him in talks as we are waiting for the transfer window to open as from next week”, Ngala now says.

Though the team is doing well, coach Nuttall likely wants to keep players on their toes by introducing competition. He also realizes that as the season progresses, injuries might begin to take their toll especially as Gor Mahia faces a backlog of fixtures after the CECAFA cup.

Everyone aiming accusations as Kogalo

AFC coach Zdravko Logarusic has joined the bandwagon of people complaining against Gor Mahia. He now claims Ingwe were denied access to train at Kisumu stadium because the stadium belongs to Gor Mahia.

But KPL CEO Jack Oguda has said that no one in the KPL owns a stadium.

“I don’t think there is a single club in Kenya which owns a stadium. We must all accept to share these venues because they are minimal. We will not accept such things to happen again but we need AFC (Leopards) to complain officially then we can follow up the matter.” said Oguda to goal.com

Oguda has directed AFC to lodge a formal complaint.

“In this case, we would ask Leopards to lodge a complaint with the stadium management if indeed they were denied an opportunity to train because it is denying the county government business and paints a bad picture,” he continued.

Gor Mahia vs Thika rescheduled

The Kenya Premier league has announced on their website that the match between Thika United and Gor Mahia, originally scheduled for Sunday, has now been moved a day later to Monday, kick-off 6pm, at Kasarani Stadium.

This is because of the unavailability of Thika County Stadium, Nyayo Stadium, Kenyatta Stadium and Kasarani Stadium on Sunday for this home fixture for Thika United.

  • What is the update on funds from Gor Mahia bread and have players been paid. I had a chat with a player and he complained that there is a lot of money flying around but it is not reaching the players. He further continued and said that were it not for the fans they would have stopped playing many days ago. They are still in because of the passion of the fans.

    Personally with Glay, Shakava and Musa I thought our central defense is well-covered but since I am not a pro in those matters I rest my case. Yes, the midfield, especially an offensive one is needed since both Aucho and Gattusso are more or less defensive midfielders. On ataack yes we need an alternative. The other day Olunga was missing the players who covered for him performed below par.
    Otherwise we have a good team and the sky should be our limit

    Match against Thika, on Monday 1st June at 6pm and then at Kasarani? So that we do not turn up in big numbers? Thika thinks that is the best way to cage “Mahia”? Sawa tu, they will meet mahia, but their wish may not come to pass.

    Complaints against Gor will come in all forms and from all quarters,no problem.

    Pesa, pesa, pesa what is the position, some updates will do -bread money,SACCO?

  • Loga is a perennial failure… looking for excuses after excuses… if only we had Nutall during Loga’s days we would have won the league 4 in a row….Ingwe played pathetic against Western Stima and punished by a striker he rejected… it is not long before Shemejis realize they’re wasting their time with him…. and he hasnt started his behaviour of running to Croatia and start calling shots from there making the team beg for his return.. Look at even the derby, its the first in many years where one team ( in this case Gor) appeared superior than the other….

  • As a football fan and die hard supporter of Gor mahono, I would love that the team wins almost every thing because that’s our pride and it gives us bragging rights . Ok put that aside following the necessary additions the couch is taking about about all are welcomed but fist thing first, we have a big team now looking at the defense we have Shakava, Dikir, Musa, Israel, Odhiambo (all center half’s) midfield we have Jerry santos, Gatuso, Aucho Erick, attackers we have Omino,Walusimbi, black berry, wafula, bruno, etec etc so my opinion would be first to clean the team and reinforce the said areas. Anyway im not the couch let him handle the team in a way he understand best. Taking about the finances i think this is one area where we have a problem we need ‘TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY” that’s all nothing else. find me on twitter @kungudavid

  • Truely Fans are willing to contribute something for the remaining two Matches but our main Man Mr. Tonny Anelka, has not utter any word about this development. Boss let’s know your stand if possible today? Thanks.

    Danny demands to be paid his arrears before joining Gor while Rama claims it’s gor who are constantly calling him. I think we are now beyond pleading with players to join. If a player wants to join on conditions being fulfilled then that is the wrong approach. Let’s get those whose hearts are there and not the ones who want to bolster their CVs for another stint abroad. Rama left, came back and then left all the time the club got nothing. With players like Wafula and Omino who are stil young we can create stars from them. Otherwise we will get enough headache from some of these established stars who fill they are beyond playing in Kenya

    IT WILL BE SAD,UNPROFESSIONAL AND SHOCKING IF PLAYERS LIKE EMUGE,ZACKARY AND WALUSIMBI LEAVE FOR FREE YET A LOT OF MONEY WAS USED FOR THEIR SIGNATURES.INFACT SOME OF THEM ARE STILL CONTRACTED.LETS SHOW PROFESSIONALISM AND USE EVERY SINGLE COIN WISELY.

      @Compresser, are they leaving I hope not. Personally I would retain them at the expense of signing Danny. They have been very loyal to the club

      • I think so. The fire power we have can stand to the test. Allowing Danny to check somewhere else would be wise.

  • Gor is riding high and no matter plans to shift the game to Monday will not deter us.
