Blog: Please spare Patson Daka

That miss was really bad for a striker of his calibre.

But when you mess up or things are not going well you are really struggling you want to go home and get a hug and go again.

Yes, if such a miss was at Leicester City, it is understandable that fans can call Daka all sorts of names.

Patson Daka needs to up his game without a doubt. He himself knows that. 90+ plus minutes, zero shot, zero goal, zero assist.

Today, Avram Grant should have probably substituted Daka earlier than in Tanzania.

He’s really on a horrendous run of form with no goal or assist in 3 World Cup qualifiers.

But whilst we are disappointed with Daka’s performances of late and that sitter fluffed today, let us remember that the striker was out for a long time with an injury.

He’s looked short of confidence on his return both for club and country.

We need Daka to fire 🔥 on all cylinders ahead of the Africa Cup.

Therefore, as Zambians let us back Daka to bounce back to good scoring form.

Not lipulanga, anasila and stuff like that. Please spare Patson.

Kuno he’s home. And home is a place you find love ❤️ when you are struggling.

You have seen this story of Daka being written off before after a dip in form especially around 2015 when he was playing for all national teams without scoring.

At 27 years old, Daka is now around the top 5 goal scoring strikers of all time in Zambia 🇿🇲.

Therefore, he deserves love and not insults from home.

We walk with him when he’s struggling because Daka needs our support more now than when he’s in top form.
