Wesonga has attributed that poor run to a difficult pre-season, player departures and the time needed to adjust to changes within the squad.“We had a bad pre-season. We did not break camp, and so planning became a challenge. We also had some of our players leave the team, and we have taken time to adapt to that,” he added.Having steadied the ship with back-to-back victories, Wesonga has set his sights on a top-three finish at the end of the season.“Having started the season badly, we are targeting a top-three finish at the end of the campaign. I want to thank the fans for sticking with me and the team and urging us on. We have since gelled, and the points are coming,” he said.Government reveals number of Bayern Munich and Ajax fans expected in Kenya for historic clashThe former Wadadia FC tactician also reflected on the difference between Trinity's preparations this season and those of the previous campaign, when he had just joined the club.“I had just joined the team last season, and we had a quality pre-season, good players and good remuneration, which were key to our performance,” he remarked.
