Nairobi City Stars midfielder Sven Yidah has attributed the team's progress this season in the FKF Premier League to consistency in the team as well as the quality of coaching at the club.
The Nicholas Muyoti-coached side has had a good run this season and are currently second on the log with 32 points from 18 matches, but could drop to third depending on the decision made on the abandoned Gor Mahia and Vihiga Bullets clash.

Sven scored his first goal for the season against FC Talanta, poking home the match-winner as City Stars won 2-1 in January this year and believes the team chemistry arrived at by maintaining most of the players and the technical bench has played a huge role.
“Last season, some of the players featured in the premier league for only the first time. Now they have matured and are more confident and they know exactly what is required from them on and off the pitch. The management has also helped a great deal by maintaining last season’s team and bench. That helps a lot as team chemistry has been maintained,” Sven told the club's portal.
In addition, the defensive midfielder who has featured in every match for City Stars this season has hailed the impact brought by Muyoti to the side, citing his experience in coaching and as a player in the same league and at the national level.

The former Kakamega Homeboyz tactician joined Simba wa Nairobi before the start of the campaign filling in the void left by Sanjin Alagic left earlier in the previous season.
“We have a coach who’s a legend not only in the league but also at the National team level. His experience is really helping us. Having played in this league, Muyoti understands how the system works and how the grounds are. Moreover, he has played with some of the coaches in other teams making it easier for him to pick their philosophy. Muyoti’s combination with former City Stars captains on the bench such as (Arthur) Museve, (Noah) Abich, and (John) Amboko is turning out to be of great value,” he added.
