Former Asante Kotoko attacker, Michael Osei ‘Ember Power’ has stated that the club needs consistency to succeed.
Speaking in the studios of Hello FM, “during our time we had constant 22 players we were selecting the first 18 from. One problem at Kotoko now is we keep on changing players so there’s no teamwork and consistency in the team.
We should have quality 24 or 28 players and know those who are our first eleven and those who will replace them if there is an injury. That’s what will make the team stronger.
During our time those on the bench were even powerful. Whenever they were introduced you see results. When Arhin Duah, Charles Taylor and I start the game, you’ll see Shilla Alhassan and Frank Osei on the bench who were equally great players.
So without consistency, Kotoko cannot get anywhere. Stephen Oduro, Arhin Duah and I were matured before joining Kotoko. We played for about four years and was no fluke that we played two finals in two years in Africa.
Signing players who don’t even play six months is a waste of money. It’s proper to save that money and use it to buy one quality player who could play for at least four years. You just buy players, put them in hotels for the team to incur loses, meanwhile, you want the supporters to be at the stadium.
The players are not good enough to give you result but the supporters want victory always.
