Former Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Isaac Amoako has urged Accra Hearts of Oak to be patient with their head coach Samuel Boadu despite their difficult start to the season.

The former Medeama gaffer took over the reigns of the Hearts coaching job midway through last season and guided them to break their trophy hoodoo as they won the Ghana Premier League title for the first time in 12 years and also won the MTN FA Cup.

Hearts of Oak are yet to win a match this season in the Ghana Premier League after four matches with three draws and a defeat against AshGold.

Speaking in an interview with Koforidua based Aben FM, Isaac Amoako says that the champions must afford their coach the needed time to build a formidable squad.

“I have worked with Samuel Boadu at the U-15 national team so I know what he is capable of doing. Coaching requires time but at the time he joined Hearts of Oak the winning mentality was there so he became successful by winning double”

“But the new season hasn’t been good for him so far but I will the fans and management of the team to be patient with him and give him the massive support they gave him last season”

“They should not think about sacking him and I believe sacking of coaches has been a major problem for most Ghanaian clubs. There is a say that, Rome was not built in a day so if things are not going as expected this season, they should exercise patience and I know with time things will change for the club”

“I think Hearts of Oak is struggling because of hard luck, so they should be supportive with the coach” he said.
