Players of TP Mazembe, Al Ahly, Zamalek and other serious teams in the continent can be very shocked if they can see the comments from Facebook coaches and experts that have already written off Matlaba, Mahamutsi, Sangweni, Gcaba, Segolela and other players that took Africa by storm barely a season ago. John Terry, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba were written off as old by Jose Mourihno successors, they are all back playing their football now. This should teach those who think real soccer is a play station, coaches and managers always have a huge impact on the careers of players. Orlando Pirates players are still good enough to turn things around if the right coach joins the team. Class is permanent, form is temporary. Sangweni has got nothing to prove to anyone, hes performed at a big stage. Mahamutsi doesnt have to justify his selection to any doubters, hes made his mark in the toughest competition in Africa, so has Matlaba and Gcaba. These players cannot become write offs overnight. I still remember very well similar voices discouraging Lekgwathi that he was too old when he was 34 years. Hes gone on to lift 7 trophies on the other side of 35 years. Dr. Khoza must get us the coach in the mould of Steve Khompela, surely we will bounce back and silence Facebook critics.
