I Can Deliver GABROS- Esu
Former chief coach of Shooting Stars Soccer Club of Ibadan, Godfrey Esu has said that despite the low standing of Gabros Football Club of Onitsha in the Globacom Premier League, he is sure to lift the club up from relegation and place them in a prominent position at the end of the season.
In an exclusive chat with nigeriasports.com, Esu revealed that though he has not yet been signed - on with the club, club owner, Gabriel Chukwuma has invited him to their training sessions with a view to studying the make up of the club and that has opened up discussions with the management. Asked if he would be comfortable taking on a team that is currently last placed on the league table, he said " that is only a challenge and to me, it would be an interesting one. I have seen the team in training and in match situation and I think a good squad could be made out of what is on ground there. I am sure that by the second stanza and towards the end of the season, we will not be talking about Gabros in terms of relegation. However, we are still discussing. By the time we agree on terms, I will move in to do real work Interestingly, it was coach Kafaru Alabi who led Gabros to the level they are in, now in the league that has been contracted to take- over the bench at Shooting Stars while Esu is in negotiation with Gabros FC, to salvage what Gabros from where Alabi left them. Giving insight into what transpired between him and the management of Shooting, Esu offered that "it was only a personality conflict."
But I can understand that they simply wanted me out. It is on record that I left the team at the seventh position on the table with seven matcches; three wins, three draws and two losses, and the club was not in any bad shape or under any threat. I just will continue to pray for them because I am close to the players and I can not say for what has happened, which I see as mere politics, I should wish them bad. The players still love and respect me and they know that we had a vision. I will be happy to see them grow in their career." Fred Edoreh 0
