FKFPL Analysis : How Kayci Odhiambo can be AFC Leopards' John Stones in a hybrid midfield-center back role
Man City manager Pep Guardiola has been using John Stones in a hybrid midfield-center back role. Given Kayci is a midfielder-cum center back at AFC Leopards, could he be Tomas Trucha's version of the English defender at the club?
Reflecting on the last encounter between the two sides, it was David Odoyo's decisive strike that clinched a narrow victory for Tusker.
Ahead of the rematch, Tusker FC's striker Eric Otieno praised the competitive atmosphere within the team, attributing it as a key factor to their recent success.
"We have prepared well as a team, and the spirit is really great. Coming off a run of three wins really propels us well," Otieno shared.
