No country will have its entire team in training until mid-next week. So it is a level playing field,&#8221; Williamson stated yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>Although Cranes are expected to regroup at Namboole Stadium today, Williamson will only have his complete first team available after Kenya-based Mudde Musa joins the rest on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Nestroy Kizito, Vincent Kayizzi and Tony Mawejje will have joined the previous day.<\/p>\n<p>It then means Williamson will have two days to look at his players&#8217; fitness levels and at the same time unearth the right candidate that will partner Andrew Mwesigwa at the heart of defence in the absence of suspended captain Ibrahim Sekagya.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the first few days, we will work on player fitness before addressing a few issues that we got wrong in the game away in Bissau,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mwesigwa, midfielder Joseph Kabagambe, defender Isaac Isinde, striker Geoffrey Massa and goalkeeper Denis Onyango are expected in the country today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>June 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Uganda v Guinea Bissau<\/p>\n<p>Fees: Sh15,000 and 30,000<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201105301049.html\" title=\"Cranes Will Prevail Over Guinea\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cranes Will Prevail Over Guinea<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Fred Kaweesi 28 May 2011 WITH less than a week to Cranes&#8217; Nations Cup qualifier against Guinea Bissau and no more than four of the team&#8217;s 18 foreign-based players in the country, any manager would feel concerned over his team&#8217;s prospects. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":432679,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-432678","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-local-news"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
