Bayelsa United head coach, Ladan Bosso has called on the state government to be more concerned about the plight of the team.
The Prosperity Boys only escaped relegation by the whiskers last season but the current season has not been different despite the acquisition of Bosso with the club languishing in 18th spot with 10 points after 10 games.
Bosso told journalists in Yenagoa shortly after the game that he has not got the needed encouragement and that things must be done fast about that to avoid a not too pleasant outcome.
“I think I am the best for the job. I am not only a coach I am also an instructor. Go and ask them to tell you the truth. Who played better in the game?” Bosso asked rhetorically.
“Bayelsa Queens that are yet to start the women’s league have had all their players cleared but most of the players we used today are yet to be cleared. We still are playing at the mercies of the managers.”
The former Abia Warriors, Gombe United and Kano Pillars gaffer rued his sides’ missed chances in the game with Enyimba while asserting that they would pay more attention to conversion of chances in the build up to their weekend tie with Rivers United in Port Harcourt.
Bosso noted that he is not bothered about the present position of Bayelsa United having been in similar situations in the past with some of his former clubs and still helped them to retain their topflight status.
He said: “The most important thing in football is creation of chances because when you create chances goals will come. What we need to do is to work on the attack so that we can convert the chances we created.
“I have faced this kind of situation before . Remember in 2007 I was in Wikki Tourists. We went to the FIFA Under 20 World Cup and returned with just seven games to the end of the season with Wikki Tourists in last position. When I resumed with a few reinforcements we were able to finish in the seventh position.
“With what we played now, it is just for us to work on the attack I think we can get something in Port Harcourt.”
