The match ended 1-1.<br \/>\nThe coach has said his team Gor Mahia has limited chances of lifting the KPL championship this season and his immediate task will be to save the team from relegation.<br \/>\n\u201cAs you all know I have been in this team for less than a week and that is not enough to make a lot of changes in the team, at this point I suggest we forget about putting our minds in winning the league but work towards saving ourselves from the bottom of the table. The boys tried their best but am afraid to say some of these players do not deserve to be in this team.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cSome of them give their best but their hundred percent is not enough for a big club like Gor Mahia.I do not want to talk much about the coaches who were there before and who made the selection.This club is a big club; the pride of Kenya and everyone who is given chance to play for Gor Mahia should show their worth. We need players who can make the best of Kenya because their target should be to play in Europe in the future, this means they should avoid talking a lot outside the picth and concentrate on building their talents.\u201d He said.\u201d<br \/>\nThe coach said he will work towards improving the team\u2019s ball possession and attack for a better performance in their subsequent matches in a build up towards regaining the team\u2019s lost face.<br \/>\n\u201cI have had a few sessions and a small friendly match but from today\u2019s match I have been able to gauge the performance of the team and see exactly what we need to change in our play. But I can confidently say some players just talk and feel proud about themselves outside the pitch yet they cannot deliver on the pitch. A footballer does not just talk, talk, and talk !! Your message should be delivered on the pitch by your performance.\u201d He added without mentioning names.<br \/>\nHe said with the big following the team enjoys, the results need to be positive to satisfy the fans who he termed as \u2018phenomenal\u2019.<br \/>\n\u201cI feel sorry for our fans because they came in today expecting a win after a poor start to the league. But I call on them to remain patient because it will take time before we can rise up to top level again.\u201d<\/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\/logarusic-some-players-do-not-deserve-to-be-in-the-team\/\"\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>&nbsp; Courtesy of michezoafrika.com Gor Mahia coach\u00a0 Zdravko Logarusic has said some of the current team players are not worth<\/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":[],"class_list":["post-429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/429","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=429"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/429\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
