Simba SC head coach Fadlu Davids says they will have to strengthen the squad in the January transfer window to ensure they compete well for the remainder of the campaign, both in the local league and the CAF Confederation Cup.
Speaking to Telecomasia.net after his side’s defeat in the Kariakoo Derby to Young Africans SC, the South African tactician admitted that the difference between his side and their eternal enemies was the experience.
We have taken many steps forward since the last derby, but there is much more to do. We have gathered more lessons, and we will learn. But we saw, yes, we can compete, but the difference is in the experience. We know we have a window coming up, and we are doing everything to strengthen the team. We have seen the level, and we will definitely get stronger.

Simba have now lost to their sworn enemies Yanga for the fourth consecutive time, but Davids believes they have bridged the gap.
We have seen that we have improved, and we can do better. In terms of the league, it is still early, and we can’t say we have lost the league. We will continue working and giving our best.

Simba were playing their sixth game of the season. They have won four, drawn one, and the defeat to Yanga was their first of the season.
