Modiba as an 8 for me is the best situation for the team. The boy has the brain and the pass. Playing him as a left back sometimes limits his abilities. Look at the game against Magezi and AS FAR for example. I feel that Tiwani, Mashego and Lunga should fight for that left back spot and not Modiba
I hope people see the importance of Allende in that midfield. When he went off injured in the second half, we lacked cohesion in terms of our passing game. People seemed not to be comfortable on the ball.
Guys let's be fair in our analysis. Rotation of the team can not be compared with the rest of the world who do not have similar challenges in Africa. In Europe the transport infrastructure between countries is very easy compared to Africa. Therefore I support any clever coach to apply rotation to rest some players and give other players game time. Sundowns has lots of games and sufficient quality players. I hope your judgement will be fair. More and more I have been proven right that some players did not want to play for coach Manqoba. No matter how you can try to sugar code it. Today and previous game there was a lot of commitment and the coach has also said it.
Seems likes Cardoso is a firm believer of Mngqithi ball and his ideas. Manqoba used to to say he we will be a little bit faster than we were in the previous season and that he prefers to attack the lines than enjoying longer spells of possession and creating more goal scoring opportunities 😮 He also mentioned in the pitchside pod as much they will be a lot wing play but we will have more goals coming in centrally than wide channels with the likes of Mabena,Zwane Ribeiro and Mkhulise also Rotation? I don't know but I'm sold with Cardoso seems like we got ourselves a likeable version of Manqoba 😮
I doubt that the players didn’t understand the system they nailed it against Chiefs what changed nami angazi but I think it was deeper than what we saw
My view is that this is not a Manqoba or Cardoso play but its a management/board/technical director ball....they realised that past seasons we were good but sometimes a bit too slow especially in attack mode...so mybe they gave that mandate to the coaching staff(not fighting anyone just sharing my thoughts)
You could be correct because even the speedy players were bought by the TD &his team not coaches. Also think Manqoba was just holding the fort until a new coach was hired bt don't get why the most special keeper coach was let go. This guy has produced 2 Africa's goalie of the year during his time @ downs. No coach in S.A can claim such except coach Wendell.
What we’re seeing is what Manqoba wanted but he didn’t get the support of players. Let’s not act like Carloso has implemented anything new. Y’all and the players just didn’t like Manqoba. All these new players are from Manqoba. The rotation plan per game is Manqoba style. In this game, we saw the players more combined together though. Only note for Manqoba is how he used to talk about the players. This is likely the reason they didn’t rally behind him. 😅 Last night Sundowns dismantled Stellies with some beautiful soccer ⚽️. That was refreshing. The combos were communicating. Based on that first half, I expected Sundowns to have scored at least 4 goals. Stellies didn’t look like themselves last night. They lost possession as quickly as they received it. Players weren’t combining well and Titus was closed down shame. De Jong wast out. He fumbled the very few solid chances they got. Saw a huge difference when Barnes came on. He had a good game and just needed someone to finish the chances he created. Devine Lunga was definitely a star last night. Those shifts up and down were superb. Allende also had a fantastic game just before being released due to injury. Question 🙋🏿; no longer showing us the images and ratings on screen? 😅

Winning it is necessary because it builds unity and confidence as a team. .it gives stigma and culture of GOD team in positive manner . Important weekend for our new coach
👌👆👌👆👌👆👌👆👌👆 Against a confident Stellies. Only one question! How do you coach the Brazilians and never know how to speak Portuguese, Rhulani made a determined trip to Brazil precisely for that.. This is one of the games that tells us whether we'll cruise nicely or it's going to be a bullet train in the league for Sundowns. Our only PSL loss of the season will be Polokwane FC There were a lot of really good things in the game especially the commitment.
But bro Stellies were chaotic I. The first half I mean they might have suffered from the Africa trip as they came back on Monday But we played well Nathi
We did well for sure but let’s be honest that’s the most disorganised Stellies performance I saw in the first half in a few months With that said we were more direct and had the required intensity The coach also understands the player’s strengths I mean for him to play Aubrey centrally and Lunga full back Sure that’s Rulani or Peps ideas fine but it works well
Lets allow Coach to rotate as much as he can, until he finds his best 11.... I bet, after 5games he will start to have his preferred starting XI💯 But so far so good🔥
We should have wrapped up that game in the first half, second half we were struggling to come out of our zone and nearly conceded a goal and Denis Onyango had to make a vital save.
Greetings to both of you guys..i really don't think our new coach had a lot of influence in both our games if you are a person with football brains and can apply their mind you can clearly see bro Steve influence...
Yeah that's what you Chiefs fans normally say when you can't acknowledge the head coach for his work.Firstly you said Manqoba was behind Pitso's success and lastly,you said Rulani was behind Manqoba's success and only for your Manqoba to fail when he was given a chance.😂😂😂😂Give credit to the coach Mr football brain
Nah bro I don’t see any Steve in our system This guy is combining Rhulani and Manqobas ideas the central attacks plus the direct attacks that Mngithi wanted So yeah we’ are likely to improve I think Flemming was smart to not pick a coach who’s got alien ideas this guys style will be similar to what we know at downs Just more direct

The squad must be rotated regularly because we have a massive squad and all our boys must get a chance to play. All players must understand the system of play the coach wants, and, when given a chance to play, each player must get in and deliver. We can't rely on the same crop of players as though we don't have a large squad. It's certainly suicidal because players will get injured and fatigued. Let's rotate them and teach the world how it's done. #KBY❤
You are right member you know depending on same players over and over is costly pep learned the hard way by doing that now he is loosing left and right
You guys must be having a serious problem with Manqoba 😂. The rotation is now well explained by you as if you have inside information. Other fans can't criticise Maema, but you are the first to criticise any player you wanna criticise. Is it because of your platform? Sometimes, you just need to be objective instead of pushing an agenda. Talking about how Allende was never rotated shows the agenda you had for Manqoba. I don't think it's fair for you to take out your frustration about the club decisions to Manqoba. Manqoba never fired Rhulani. It's the club decisions.
Do you want the boyz to block the comment section? I think its oblivious that for many ppl the decision to release RM and replace him with MM didn't sit well with them hence the scrutiny. The new guy brings a new era which is why the praise.
😂these guys just talk man, Titus plays on the right vs our left back but somehow they say he gives Mudau a problem that’s why we decided to play Morena. 😭
You guys keep on referring to previous coach's tactics, comments, etc, leave the past and focus on the future. It is too early to judge the new coach. All we as supporters is to support the coach and players.
For your information mr smart guy I'm not a Chiefs fan or supporter if you like ...where on earth could a New coach who is bearly in the country for 5 Days make those decisions...only a fool could think like that
Just listen to Neo saying they were under pressure to score; that is Ludacris. The game is about scoring and winning. I so wish they could cease the issue of criticizing Mangqoba, and this attitude will make supporters to have an attitude towards Cardoso. Neo come on man, saying a team is playing with the fear of scoring that is hogwash man. The next thing you will be closing the comments
We beat Stellies on their own game, if u can have a proper look of our goal, it is exactly the same transition ball when they stole the ball away from Maswanganyi and score thats the exactly the way we stole the ball from Titus yesterday.
This is the first time I was impressed by Modiba is midfield. I expected Blesser and Neo not to start the game based on their poor performance vs Raja. I doubt Neo will get much game time once all players are fully fit. Aubuss is a beast. Impressive. Devine was very good. Lucas has dropped. Stellies had 3 clear chances in the 2nd half. That is very bad. I think its time to give caoch Manqoba a break. He tried and he has left.
Now you're making excuses for the coach's decision to rotate the squad. Why aren't you questioning Mudau being benched? Such inconsistency is hypocritical.
Pay attention bafo. What did Tlotlo say at 5:30? Neo still stands on his point that rotation doesn't work for top teams and yet you think the gents are making excuses for the new coach?
The new coach brings very good defensive organisation but theres still room for improvement but at least we can see what hes trying to do unlike that Manqoba guy.

Bathusi is underrated. That boy is very very good. Yoh
We hardly concede when he is on the field.
Identity of the team is back.we are happy as a team.
Modiba as an 8 for me is the best situation for the team. The boy has the brain and the pass. Playing him as a left back sometimes limits his abilities. Look at the game against Magezi and AS FAR for example. I feel that Tiwani, Mashego and Lunga should fight for that left back spot and not Modiba
Spot on and Lunga put his hand up as someone that wants to make that LB position his!
Thanks guys for your wisdom that you share with us.

The fact that we were able to protect our lead and still be able to attack like we did💛💚👆💯

I don't know but I'm sold with Cardoso seems like we got ourselves a likeable version of Manqoba 😮
I also noticed that
Yeah agreed basically Cardoso has implemented the system or ideas that took Manqoba a couple of months to get into our players minds
I doubt that the players didn’t understand the system they nailed it against Chiefs what changed nami angazi but I think it was deeper than what we saw
My view is that this is not a Manqoba or Cardoso play but its a management/board/technical director ball....they realised that past seasons we were good but sometimes a bit too slow especially in attack mode...so mybe they gave that mandate to the coaching staff(not fighting anyone just sharing my thoughts)

Did Manqabo said He wanted to control games with goals(scoring more goals than the opponent)????
Bathusi Aubaas was unstoppable last night.
This coach reminds me of Pitso he is grinding out results

Neo's hairstyle inspired by Authur Sales n Allende😂
Have to rotate to many games and we have the depth to rotate
Lucas Ribeiro don't have the national team games load, that's why they play most games
I also wanted to ask this question long ago.ARE YOU GUYS TWINS?

Nothing wrong with rotation.....look at what happened to zwane ,mvala,Kekana
I'm not convinced.....I'm still trying to delete Rhulan's beautiful football...we a no longer special now ...we play like Stellies....
Lebusa was injured
Now you're making excuses for the coach's decision to rotate the squad. Why aren't you questioning Mudau being benched? Such inconsistency is hypocritical.
They made up their minds about coach MM before the season even started. 🥲
Pay attention bafo. What did Tlotlo say at 5:30? Neo still stands on his point that rotation doesn't work for top teams and yet you think the gents are making excuses for the new coach?
Mudau was benched bcz Titus knows how to attack our side when Mudau is on the line up
Sundowns plays better without Teboho Mokoena
U guys robbed Mali, I give 8, Kodisang 9, Ribeiro 7,5
Ribeiro is ascam😢
The new coach brings very good defensive organisation but theres still room for improvement but at least we can see what hes trying to do unlike that Manqoba guy.
