Kotoko coach to take inspiration from Manchester United's opening form

Asante Kotoko coach Steve Pollack wants to build a ruthless side like English giants Manchester United who made a flying start to their English Premier League campaign.

The Englishman admits he learnt a lot from Jose Mourinho's side who thumped West Ham United 4-0 in their season opener on Sunday.

''I watched their 4-0 victory over West Ham and I was so impressed and that is how I want to build my team and teams facing Kotoko must prepare well,'' Pollack told the media.

''We are ready for the FA Cup match against Nea Salamina on Wednesday. Every team playing Kotoko take it as final.

''I have spoken to my players who went on national duty and they are ready for the Wednesday encounter.''
