Former Board Member of Accra Hearts of Oak SC Frank Nelson Nwokolo has publicly supported coach Aboubakar Ouattara amidst calls for his dismissal.
The Phobians have only won two games in the ongoing season, leaving the club on 9 points after week 8.
According to Nelson, Hearts of Oak’s poor performance not solely Ouattara’s fault..
“First of all, I won’t blame the coach, I won’t blame the playing body but we need to look at the problem holistically and know exactly where the problem is coming from,” he told Luv FM.
“We need to be sincere to ourselves and ask if we are doing the right recruitment, are the players we got into the club players that can play for Accra Hearts of Oak?
“Well, I don’t think these are the best players in Ghana for Accra Hearts of Oak. Accra Hearts of Oak I know in those days is the club that goes for the best players, like going for Yaw Sakyi from Kotoko, going for Eric Gawu from King Faisal, Anthony Annan from Hasacas.”
Hearts of Oak will play away to Medeama SC at the Tarkwa T&A stadium in their next Ghana Premier League fixture.
