Pitso Mosiman said he was surprised to see Masibusane Zongo get the Man of the Match award
from Reporter on 08/10/2015 12:21 PM
"I like the boy Zongo, he's a good footballer, he's very exciting and I've got nothing personal against him, but if he has to win Man of the Match for this game then I don't know," Mosimane said after the game.
"He's really talented, I love him but he needs to make entries inside the box, he needs to make shots in the box then he can win Man of the Match. "Because we going to promote tricks only, without precision, look at Rakhale of Pirates, he can dribble and he can finish, that's Lionel Messi, that's Neymar.
"How many number of entries he made into the box, how many goals did he try to score, so those are the issues, otherwise we are going to kill our football, then we're going to let every little child know, that when you do tricks, you win Man of the Match, no. "Tricks with precision, deliver the last pass or cross."
ReplyPlatinum Stars head coach Cavin Johnson believed his side was unlucky not to beat Mamelodi Sundowns

Platinum Stars head coach Cavin Johnson believed his side was unlucky not to beat Mamelodi Sundowns in their Premiership opener on Saturday.
The teams played out to a 0-0 draw at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium with Sundowns head coach Pitso Mosimane stating after the game he felt his side should have won 5-0. Johnson not only disagreed with his opposite number, he went on to suggest it was his side that created the better chances to win the game.
"With all respect to Sundowns, they did their homework very well on us, they kept our wingers closed, they didn't allow them to move the ball, but I thought we had a lot clearer chances than them," Johnson said. "Yes, maybe they had more ball possession and they were able to get at goal, but they weren't really, really, clear, clear strikes. I think we had one or two better opportunities than them.
"We were playing against a very good team with a lot of superstars in it. We played well in patches, although they had 80 percent of the ball possession, but the moments we had it, we missed a few, they missed a few, but I thought in the second half we held the ball a bit better. "But in the end I think it was a good game of football, a learning curve for us at this stage of the season. We'll look to build on our mistakes and hope to play better in our next game."

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane has not hidden his desire to bring former Kaizer Chiefs defender Tefu Mashamaite to Chloorkop.
Mosimane told the reporter that he knows Mashamaite is a good defender who can replace the departed Alje Schut, but he is not sure if he is available.
"Is Tefu free?" Mosimane queried. "'Jazzman' hasn't told us that he is free. If he can tell us that he is free then we can consider him.
Bidvest Wits coach Gavin Hunt says Mamelodi Sundowns are favourites to win the League title season.
from Reporter on 08/04/2015 05:43 PM
The 2015/16 Absa Premiership season kicks off this weekend, but Hunt feels defending champions Kaizer Chiefs will struggle to repeat last season’s heroics.
“I think Sundowns are certainly big favourites to win the League,” he says. “They haven't changed much to their side. They were close last year, they have a good strike force … they are favourites."
Hunt adds: “SuperSport also have a good strike-force; they will be close. I can’t see Chiefs winning the first 11-12 games like they did last season. “Pirates have a good side. They have energy and play at a high tempo. Platinum Stars have good players, while Ajax had a good season last year. Everybody can beat everybody!”

“The are so many great players even from development but still you wanna take Khune for what? We don't need him.” -Jack DeGroove said.
When asked what he would like Mamelodi Sundowns do, he didn't hesitate to say Sundowns should copy what Chiefs does. “We should do what chief's does, not buying their old keepers.” Answered Jack. “So why buy their old keeper if you aren't chiefs?

Pitso Shouldn't Let Kwanda Go
from Moloto on 07/27/2015 11:43 PMOur couch is willing to loan Kwanda Mngonyama away and keep Mario Booysen in his squad. Is Booysen even better than Mngonyama or maybe is one those situation where you find a coach hating one player? Kwanda Mngonyama is a good player and that's why team like Wits and Supersport are after him. If Pitso let this boy go, the it will be our loss.

Khama Billiat feels Mamelodi Sundowns' pre-season campaign can give them the edge as they go in search of the Premiership crown in 2015/16.

Khama Billiat feels Mamelodi Sundowns' pre-season campaign can give them the edge as they go in search of the Premiership crown in 2015/16.
The Brazilians, runners-up to Kaizer Chiefs in the league last term, have been in sublime form during the off-season, so far playing 10 friendly matches and losing just once.
Pitso Mosimane's men, who lifted the Nedbank Cup last season, rounded off their preparations on Saturday with a 1-0 win over Namibia outfit African Stars, and Zimbabwe international Billiat feels there are plenty of reasons for Sundowns to start getting excited.
"We have played close to 10 serious games in the pre-season and we have only lost one. That shows that we have done very well," he told Soccer Laduma. "We will continue playing like we have been playing in the pre-season and that will help us as the season goes on. We have done very well in the pre-season."
