Kotoko coach Prosper Ogum has blamed unjust criticism from fans for the ineffectiveness of the team's young players.
After a home loss against Dreams FC in Week Nine of the Ghana Premier League on Sunday, Ogum and his players were chastised by their own fans.
Scoring goals and securing results have been difficult for the Ghana Premier League champions over the last two seasons.
“For performance-wise, Kotoko is playing well. You can check, Kotoko is the best but can’t take the chances. The young guys can’t withstand the pressure from the supporters, so they go off sometimes, and it affects our players. The supporters start booing and hooting at us when the going gets tough. How do you expect us to score?” expressed a visibly unhappy Ogum.
The team currently sit 14th on the Ghana Premier League table after winning just twice in their nine matches. Four of their games have also ended in a stalemate while they have suffered three loses.
They will get back to action against FC Samartex in the matchday 10 at the Nsenkyire Sports Complex in Samreboi.
