The latter have been having financial issues which have seen them lose a number of players and their dependable coach Michael Nam.<\/p>\n<p>Although Bobby Williamson has won two matches on the trot he insists that his team cannot take its foot off the accelerator pedal. \u201cRight now each game is like a final for us. We are at the top of the league and we have to play our best in all our matches so as to be in the best position to fight for this year\u2019s title\u201d. He told michezoafrika.com.<\/p>\n<p>Gor Mahia will hope that the striking duo of Kiongera and Rama Salim will maintain their form. Kiongera has displayed a knack for clinical finishing that has seen him score two well taken goals in the last two matches. Rama Salim has been dangerous especially from dead ball situations. But above all the defence has been the bedrock of the team with Jerry &#8220;jagoal&#8221;, Owino &#8220;Calabar&#8221;, Mosoti Emuge, Nasio and Musa Mohamed all in fine form.<\/p>\n<p>Karuturi for their part will be fighting tooth and nail to avoid relegation. They will have former Gor Mahia winger, the hard shooting John Kiplangat who is always super-motivated to play his old team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Williamson happy with Start<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Williamson has also praised the players, the clubs and the fans for making his start at the club easier. \u201cI must say Gor is a great club. The players\u2019 reception and easy adaptation to new style is a fantastic thing that many coaches have a problem with when they join new teams but my case has been different. I think the previous coach had laid a good foundation and my work has been easy, just to move on\u201d He told michezoafrika.com<\/p>\n<p>So for all the bad we&#8217;ve written about Loga, we must give him credit for the good work he did before he left. And he was probably right to leave because the club needed an injection of new ideas. A good coach knows when to leave.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/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\/gor-mahia-take-on-karuturi\/\"\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>Gor Mahia take on bottom side Karuturi Sports club.
