Although Logarusic was impressed by the side’s willingness to press high and the individual quality in possession, he was frustrated by a number of issues.
New Kenya Police FC head coach Zvadko Logarusic insists his charges must improve on their discipline without the ball after beating Bidco United 2-0 in his first game in charge last Saturday.
Police had gone without a win in each of their first four league games, which prompted the management to part ways with Francis Baraza and appoint Logarusic, who previously coached Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards.

Having drawn four and lost one of their opening five fixtures, Ambani is worried his charges are yet to win a single league game ahead of a crunch game against Gor Mahia next weekend.
Logarusic was far from pleased with his side’s game without the ball, saying it was one of “the many things he did not like” about the team.
“So many things I did not like,” Loarusic said. “We have so many things to improve,” he added.

The former AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia tactician has admitted that the level of competitiveness in the Kenyan topflight has taken a notch higher in the seven years he has been away.
Asked about what he did not like, Logarusic said: “Look at me, I look like a robot. I couldn’t improve the skill, I couldn’t improve the short, I could not improve how they make short crosses and other things but I must improve their head.
