Qanah FC coach surprised by talk of Amouta's dismissal

Abdel Nasser Mohamed, the coach of Qanah FC, expressed his surprise at the talk of sacking Moroccan Al-Hussein Amouta, the head coach of Al Ahly FC. He emphasized that the coach needs a longer period to fully understand the capabilities of his players.

Abdel Nasser Mohamed, in statements made during a radio interview with journalist Hani Hathout, addressed Mohamed El Sheikh's departure from Wadi Degla, saying: "I am surprised by club administrations in general when they dismiss coaches after two or three matches. I mean, it's natural for performance to improve over time; if you see the performance declining, then you might worry a little."

He added: "But why would you dismiss the coach? I see that Wadi Degla are playing great matches but they are just not fortunate. Well, luck is in God's hands; why would you let the coach go at a time when things are not going well? Give him time and a chance; it's still early and there is still a break."

Regarding his stance on discussing the dismissal of Hussein Amouta due to Al Ahly FC's performance in the first 5 matches, he replied: "Yes, of course, the management chose a coach and is responsible for that choice; it's not after four or five matches that people say the coach should have already known the players."

He explained: "The coach doesn't really know the players until after 7-8 matches, not just the preparation period, because in matches the player gives something different than in training. You see their personality in the match differently than in training, and you see their personality in the ball, physically, and in the situations they face."
