Mike Mutebi could count himself lucky. With pressure and speculation concerning his future at 13-time league champions KCCA in overdrive, basement dwellers Myda’s arrival to the MTN Philip Omondi Stadium in Lugogo couldn’t have come at a better time.
The only downside is that such a “sure win” match can turn out to be the noose handed to Mutebi if he cannot negotiate past the Malaba-based stragglers of the StarTimes Uganda Premier League today.
The forward pointed out what has been their biggest challenges that have seen them fail to have a good start in the top-flight so far.
“As a team, we struggled to collect points, though, personally I did not find it hard to score and I hope to do so when the league returns,” he added.
“As a team, I believe we played good football which was flowing and entertaining, however, I believe we didn’t have the necessary luck in our opening fixtures.
“I confess we lost a number of defenders with whom the team moved the journey to the promotion and the team was forced to recruit new and young players to fill the void,” he said.
