“I have 100 per cent confidence in my players,” he says.
“They know their roles in our game plan and it will be about everybody doing their job at game time.”
Eke’s shopping list over the off-season included securing the signatures of a couple of top-class defenders and he got his wish in the form of Samson Takayama and George Suri.
He has also called upon the services of Felix Ray Jnr, who will be supporting Shadrack Ramoni as the second goalkeeper.
Locally, Koloale has been seen playing a tactical game that is quite unorthodox compared to other local clubs but this has been able to get them the results that they are looking for.
It is anticipated that a similar game plan will be used in their match against Lautoka.
Eke is confident that Koloale will get the job done despite their opponent’s extensive recruitment drive and believes it is vital to get off to a good start.
“I think that it is important for us to win our opening match to get some positive momentum going and to bolster support among the local community and business houses for the club,” he says.
