Seyoum, Kassaye & Abraham under the nasty radar

Two draws and two wins in the past five consecutive matches the champions are slipping down the table. St George, famous for never turning back once in control of the driving seat, is five points clear of the defending champions. According to one senior club supporter, not only the poor result but also for the disappointing attacking displays despite having the deadliest striker Nigerian Okiki Afolabi has frustrated the home supporters.
“I believe we have the best squad in the league. But thanks to Seyoum Kebede’s lack of leadership and vision, a back to back championship title is no longer possible” said the supporter.
Ethiopia Bunna once again out of the league title race doesn’t look like getting back into the competition for it is already nine points behind the league leaders. The same “we-are- playing –good” suggestion after every single match, Kassaye appears obsessed with ball possession rather than winning points.
Critics suggest that lack of plan “B” when opposite teams go for pressing high in Coffee’s half, is Kassaye’s major handicap. Two defeats and two draws in the past five outings, Ethiopia Bunna supporters are once again divided with the majority asking for his sacking while others insisting his stay until his four years contract expire. “I am sure Kassaye is ready to leave the team if Ethiopia Bunna is willing a free pass out of his contract” A close friend of Kassaye suggested.
Three defeats in the past six matches, Baherdar Ketema’s dream of title contention under Coach Abraham Mebratu appears to turn into a nightmare. Double loss to Adama and Sidama followed by two draws against lowly sides Diredawa and Sebeta, fans started accusing the boss for the poor result.
Five points out of possible 18 from the last six matches and Abraham stating that he is quite happy in his team’s performance, let alone title contention finishing the season in a humble position could be a high hill to mount” suggested a critic who thinks Abraham’s stay in the club may not go past the end of the first round.
