I am the head coach of the team and it is my job to recommend the players to the management to sign. No other person should do that without consulting me,\u201d Polack told <em>Nation Sport.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Polack noted that the club needed to be serious if they want to make an impression in continental events.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cWe are a big team that regularly plays in Caf competitions and therefore have to sign quality players not every Tom, Dick and Harry,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>On Nicholas Omondi, Polack stated that the player has potential but needs to work hard to upgrade his game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is a good player, technically very gifted and has a lot of energy but he needs to polish up his game and become tactically astute. He is a young player and has time to learn but I am happy to have him at the club.\u201d said Polack.<\/p>\n<p>Polack was impressed with Juma Balinya&#8217;s performance on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBalinya couldn\u2019t get a better debut than this. Actually, he could have scored a hat-trick but I think he got tired because he hasn\u2019t played for a while and that\u2019s why I took him off,\u201d Polack told Standard Sports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI could have substituted him earlier but I was trying to give him a chance to get a hat-trick. Without doubt, he is going to be a very important player to our team.\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\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\/after-raising-concerns-polack-now-happy-with-new-signings\/\"\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>Last week, coach Steve Polack raised the alarm when he stated that some elements within the club were trying to<\/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":[642,647,622],"class_list":["post-15687","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-juma-balinya","tag-nicholas-omondi","tag-steve-polack"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15687","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=15687"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15687\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15688,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15687\/revisions\/15688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
