Solomon Kanform " I want to be better than last season"

ThePoint- We less than two weeks before the league kick-off, How prepared are you?

Solomon- We very prepared as a group and we are in high gear. Individually I am up to the task, because am the captain of the team. Anything less than what I achieved last season, means it's a failure.

ThePoint- Take us back to the previous season statistics, How was your performance?

Solomon - It was a collective effort, much credit goes to my teammates. It was a good season. We lost the title in the run in. I scored 15 league goals, four league cups and provided eight assists. I only didn't score against one club. Now the focus is shifted to what is ahead of us, and it means I have to work hard.

ThePoint - Football is full of tactics, don't you think other clubs would now have studied you or even try to nullify the threat you pose?

Solomon - That's obvious, everything about football is tactics. Teams do look out for each others strength and weakness. I think the coach has to help the player and the group. Most case it's difficult to totally limit a player strength or mobility.

ThePoint- Back to pre-season, it's very important for clubs, was Sheikh Jamal busy in the transfer window or travelled for a camp?

Solomon - We among the first team to return to pre-season. We almost sold three-third of our players. We quickly return to build a good chemistry among new players, because the strength of the team lies in the unity ie of the collectivness. The players that recently came in, I believe we can challenge for the league.

ThePoint- Bangladesh isn't sort of Gambian players and I mean unique Gambian players, how are they faring there?

Solomon - All aforementioned names are well known back in the Gambia and have contributed their quarter in the Gambia. Our talent isn't forgotten back home. Most will wonder why are we in Bangladesh, but circumstances led us here. Playing in a league doesn't mean your standard suits the same league. Players like Landing Darboe , Momodou Bah (Aimar) are all well established players in their clubs.

ThePoint- Asian are football fanatics, follows the game so crazy, many would wonder why you kicked start your professional carrier in Bangladesh?

Solomon - Football is all about patience. It's destined that here is where the journey of greatness will start. I am here for a gateway. Therefore, they will see me where my target is. Am the same Solomon that they knew before, although am more matured now and am working extra hard.

ThePoint- Any national team dream?

Solomon - The Gambia belongs to all of us, whether called upon or not, Gambia first. Although it's utmost joy for a player to represent the colours of the national team and it's an honour. Football has no boundary. Everything has its own time. Maybe I don't suit the coach tactics. Am still patience, I believe I have a long way to go and once the opportunity is available I will do my out most best.
