O Capitao Paulo : We’re Ready For The Kedah Test

City Boys’ captain Paulo Josue reckons that Wednesday’s encounter at Kedah DA, will be another tough affair for us, but we are ready for the test in Alor Setar.

 

Since being a city slicker following a mid-season transfer in 2017 from Brazilian club Votuporanguense, he has faced the Canaries 6 times, and it’s been even stevens with 3 wins each, but Paulo has been on the losing side in every visit to Alor Setar.

 

Speaking to The Voice of The City Boys, the Brazilian said “It’s always tough to play here (Kedah DA), last season they finished in second place but we prepared this week for our weak points from the last game (vs Selangor) and we are ready to face Kedah here.”

 

The 33 year old described what he meant by weak points, “We have trouble that we said (talked about) this week about our last third. It was a derby, (our) first game you never know what will happen. I think we did a great job, especially the attacking third, we build some good chances and we managed to score. We need to continue like that.”

 

Paulo Josue also said not having a player of Romel’s quality around in the opening fixtures this season (Vs Johor DT in the Charity Cup, Selangor & Kedah DA in the league) is a loss for us, “We miss him a lot. We know his quality, his capacity to play with us. We all know him and we hope he gets back soon”.

 

On his new teammate Congolese, Koubemba, “He’s a good player. He has very very good movements. He makes some good space especially for the midfielders. As you see in the last game (vs Selangor), all 3 midfielders scored goals much because of his movements. So he creates a lot of space for the midfielders to go in and try to score”, he explained.

 

The Super League Match Day 2 fixture between Kedah DA and Kuala Lumpur City is on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, at 9PM (2100hrs), in Darul Aman Stadium, Alor Setar, Kedah.
