Kaizer Chiefs endured one other setback over the weekend.

Following a formidable midweek show in opposition to Richards Bay, Nasreddine Nabi’s aspect appeared set to construct on their momentum once they confronted Royal AM on November 30, and that appeared to be the case for fifty-one minutes.

Two objectives within the sport’s opening quarter despatched Kaizer Chiefs ultras into dreamland, however an Ayabulela Mawele objective with underneath thirty minutes left quickly sobered them up.

Now was the time for Kaizer Chiefs to prove the critics wrong, however a Levy Mashiane objective on the final minute of standard time solely stamped their judgements: the Soweto giants are nonetheless struggling.

Three issues AmaKhosi face

Three areas have to be addressed at Kaizer Chiefs’ headquarters – the primary being their self-discipline.

The Glamour Boys are frequent offenders. New signing Inacio Miguel has confronted two suspensions in his first two months on the membership, whereas Reeve Frosler almost price AmaKhosi dearly following a crimson card in opposition to Richards Bay final week Wednesday.

Then there’s the captaincy dilemma. Skipper Yusuf Maart has had a lacklustre begin to the season, being subbed off in most video games and searching more likely to be beginning on the bench if his poor kind continues.

Having a high-performing captain week-in-week-out is essential to how a staff operates. They are the glue of the staff, speaking always to make sure seamless transitions – this turns into more durable to realize when they’re one of many first to be benched every sport.

Another concern that may take time to resolve is the variety of new personnel which have arrived at Kaizer Chiefs’ village over the previous few months, from coaches like Cedric Kaze and Nabi to seven signings, together with Bradley Cross, Inacio Miguel and Gaston Sirino.

The gamers nonetheless want time to regulate to their new environment and the coach’s method of doing issues it’s at all times going to take a second for them to solidify as a unit, and when that day comes, it may ship shockwaves all through the PSL.
