God knows what new lows our soccer standards have sunk to.

The new FKF president appointed the Coach of Kariobangi Sharks (one Stanley Okumbi) to coach Harambee Stars, na results ndizo hizo.

Is this even legal? How is this guy with absolutely no coaching track record allowed to coach our national team, he can't even attract the services of Muhoroni Youth yet suddenly he is appointed to make mistakes for our national soccer team.

Okumbi and Mwendwa conspiring to field two Kariobangi Sharks players against Guinea Bissau will go down as one of the worst scandals in Kenya sports. And this is a country that already has numerous scandals.

The only good things is that unlike in the Nyamweya days, Harambee stars actually plays friendlies before qualifiers.

You don´t play a friendly game on a tuesday and on the weekend you have a serious game. It is Common sense but Kenyans seem to lack common sense on all facets

Okumbi is a product of KVNB, one of the finest schools of football. He also coached Mathare United at one time. He is not that bad. He only lacks experience at National level

Why not?
A number of African teams scheduled friendlies this week: Cameroon, Naija, Uganda, Zim, Egypt etc
Its the only time the players are available before the match.

As for Kenya, the weekend match is meaningless. They are already out. They just need to play more friendlies to build cohesion for the future.

Going forward, I would hope that every break in the European or Kenyan league is utilized for friendlies. Aside from building cohesion, it helps gauge coaches and gauge players.

From this week we learned that Jesse Were is not a good option n attack but Eric Marcelo Ouma has a future in this team

Only an African team could take such a gamble. If you play on a tuesday, you have only three to four days of recovery. Bearing in mind ,that African teams don´t do and actually can´t afford proper recovery programme, that period is too short to recover and play at your maximum level after four days.For many years, the African cup was played in the same year like the world cup. It is very difficult to reach your peak twice a year. Thhis is one of the reasons AFrican teams misperform on the world stage
