I do not \nmind sitting on the bench if the players in the same position are doing \nbetter than me and as a matter of fact, I have been benched before and I\n never complained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;But it becomes an issue when someone, actually a player, influences the coach against playing me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is not right, someone feels special and thinks he can dictate how\n things can run. It makes me feel disrespected and that is why I reacted\n that way. Let me sit on the bench because I am not performing but not \nbecause a certain &#8216;special&#8217; player feels I should sit. That is the plain\n truth and I am not scared telling it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This comes a few hours after striker Ephrem Guikan apologized to the club fans after storming out of the same match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kerr: Muguna was signed behind my back<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Former Gor Mahia coach Dylan Kerr says Kenneth Muguna was signed without his consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u201cI was not approached when the club wanted to re-sign Kenneth Muguna. He  was not in my plans and the transfer happened behind my back. Not only  Muguna, but a number of the new signings came without my blessings. &#8221; he said to goal.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kerr went on to assail the lack of professionalism at the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> \u201cSo many things were happening behind my back but that is gone now,\u201d added the Briton coach,  he concluded. <br><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/muguna-explains-his-frustration\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kenneth Muguna, who refused to sit on the bench in the midweek match against Mount Kenya United, explained to goal.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[457],"class_list":["post-13177","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-kenneth-muguna"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13177","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13177"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13177\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13181,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13177\/revisions\/13181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13177"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
