Former Kumasi Asante Kotoko player and coach, Malik Jabir has tipped his old side to turn around their poor start to the 2015/16 Ghana Premier league season.
Kotoko lie 11th on the league log after five matches having won just one, drawn two and lost two games and this has brought undue pressure to the playing body and technical team headed by coach David Duncan, as well as the management.
The Porcupine Warriors have another daunting task on Sunday when they come up against Aduana Stars away, a side they have never defeated at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park at Dormaa since they gained promotion to the top flight league some six years ago.
Bookmakers have tagged them favourites to record their third defeat of the season on Sunday against an Aduana Stars side that have been unbeaten in their last two league games.
But Coach Jabir who has seen league glory with Kotoko as a player and coach has admitted that the club has had a bad start to the season but will turn things around beginning with the away game to Aduana Stars.
He said, “the league is still young after five weeks but if Kotoko will pick themselves up now and through to the second round of the league after correcting the earlier wrongs, then Kotoko will be back in the title race”.
“I don’t think Kotoko is in a big mess now but there’s no need to press the panic button just yet but they should start with the Dormaa game and find some winning consistency,” he added.
