Dreams FC coach Charles Akonnor says his players should calm their nerves and not play under any pressure against Medeama SC on Sunday.

Ahead of the match day 13 Ghana Premier League fixture at the Theatre of Dreams, Akonnor maintains that his charges should stay focus and not play under duress because no one has asked them to win the ultimate at the end of the season.

"We must not play the Medeama game under pressure, being tensed and nervous is part but we have to keep focus.  They should not be under pressure because no one has asked them to win the title" Akonnor stated in his Pre-match presser

"I am not happy with how we are playing but I think we can come good again, they should free their mind and they will be able to perform. We were third after four games and I think we can move up again if the players play their normal game"

The former Black Stars skipper further insisted that there might be some changes in the match-day set up with some of the new signings likely to feature.

"We may do some changes in the match-day squad. New players such as Michael Sarpong have shown great fitness level at training and they may get their chance. I  have already told the players that Medeama is a tough team. We have to be very serious, play with full concentration for 90 minutes and avoid petty mistakes."

A win on Sunday for the GPL debutants on Sunday will lift morale high again after picking just four points from their last four games.
