We need to go all out against Gaddafi FC and pick three points. We want to keep the momentum going after picking three points in the opening game. I liked the aggression and the fact that we scored three goals away in the opening game. I would like to see the players possess the ball and be confident while playing. Lwanga, Musa, Magambo, Usama, Wasswa Alex and Kayanja are all out but the rest of the 26 players are fine and we shall have a strong squad that will represent us against Gaddafi FC
