Final team talk



"Were taking the first steps towards getting back to the top of South African football. Go get some rest and we'll come back ready to fight for the title"





Premier Division
View attachment 444437


Our final position was a improvement but the gap to the points to me was a failure! Defeat to Sundowns in February ended our challenge and once we sifted out some weaker players the team really started to play some good stuff at the end of the season. Sundowns ran away with the title for the 3rd year in a row.





South African Cup Final
FC Cape Town 2-4 Kaizer Chiefs

Orlando Pirates Vs Kaizer Chiefs
View attachment 442503View attachment 442502



We have our best team available. Only back ups Evandro and Nkabane are out of our 4th final in 5 seasons.
The Chiefs are also only missing a back up striker so come in at full strength too.




The Match
View attachment 442500


What a incredable result. Lead forward Kermit Erasmus made a statment with pressure from Nkabane for the starting position well not after this as he lead me to my 2nd trophy of my carear.



​
 
Wow, what a final result there a whopping win against the Kaizer Chiefs, congratulations bud! Look forwards to seeing more on this career soon :)
 
Great work, nice one on going top! Shame about the KO Cup, but that's arbitrary in comparison for a good league run! Good work!

December & January


Only 1 match in December due to the early break so put the months together
3 Way fight at the top as we go into the last 10 games with Ajax just behind
Only disappointment were throwing away a win against Ajax then a poor draw at home to Supersport

We ended up winners on 72 points which is similar to Sundowns season last year. Top 5 were only separated by 11 points which is crazy consider how great a season i thought we had. Chippa Utd's player must have spent too much time a the chipper as they were utter rubbish

Played back up players till we won the league beating Kaizer Chiefs and Sundowns along the way then our 1st team destroyed Polokwane

The winger was reborn this seasons. Involved in almost half of our league goals with either the assist or the goal itself





Top Scorer
Kermit Erasmus - 25
View attachment 440621
Scored less goals this term but was fitter for almost the whole season so had little competition this time

We clear out the last of our garbage players and add plenty of depth to the side as well as 4 new starting players.




In



Mzikayise Mashaba - ML
View attachment 440540
Our 1st record transfer of the summer will fight it out with another new signing to be the starting winger


Thabo Moloi - DR
View attachment 440539
Last season Happy Jele really disappoint at Right back so i bring in one of the top South African prospects


Lebohang Manyama - ML
View attachment 440538
He is set to fight it out with Mashaba to start. Even if that doesn't work out he'll be my back up striker


Abel Mabaso - DC
View attachment 440537
As we sold Kone i needed a replacement so why not take my biggest rivals best defender off there hands!


Darko Tasevski - MC
View attachment 440536
Macedonian midfielder as the talent to make a real impact in our side


Gabriel Zakuani - DC
View attachment 440535
My final addition. Having spent over a decade in the English game Gabi wanted to return closer to home so i have opened the door. Now i hope he repays me




Junior Sibande was released then signed up again saving ?200 a week on wages.






Out


A few stand out players from last seasons team moves on. Lamine Kone my star center back left for Auxerre so he'll be a big miss. Despite failing out of favor with me Edwin Gymah also leaves after his contract expired and i cut my losses with Virgile Reset who was wasting a foreigner space.






1st team 2016
View attachment 440534
The squad is in a good place. Plenty of experienced players, some brilliant youngsters on the verges of the team. Im hoping the side can stay together and have a real go at the Champions League.





CAN ANYONE TELL ME
How hard is the African Champions League to win?
