Player ratings

December Kisakah runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 52. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Bunu Sale asks to leave KCB

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Boardroom

The numbers do not look good at KCB

Wages have outrun income and the accountants have started attending meetings they used to send apologies to. Ambition comes second in a season like this.

Squad

Samou Sidibé in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at KCB this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at KCB training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Roger Emga is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Patrick Onyango signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Patrick Onyango and KCB agree another 3 years.

Squad

Elvis Ochoro keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” KCB may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Kevin Omondi in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at KCB this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

9 academy players handed senior numbers at KCB

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

Apollo Otieno stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Apollo Otieno and KCB agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Samou Sidibé falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

One of our own: Patrick Onyango joins the KCB first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Onyango is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Michael Njeru steps up from the KCB academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Michael Njeru has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
