As a Pirates fan, I rate Rhulani as the best coach in our League right now. Big ups to him.

[@bongaputana26]

Congratulations coach Rhulani we love and appreciate you my good coach

[@Keamo_Mabe]

"My responsibility for Sundowns is far more important than my love for an individual"... these are words I want to hear honestly as a Sundowns fan. Those Mothobi mistakes have been very detrimental, and we honestly can't keep saying, "football is a sport of mistakes"... it means more to some of us, unfortunately... but Coach Rulani will always be the right man for the job.

[@WamoAfrica]

I'm glad we had a discussion on the Sirino issue, and we might not be happy but we can accept it.. Rather someone who wants it than one who doesn't

[@borismkhwanazi583]

Thank you Andile for celebrating one of our own 🎉🎉🎉

[@lindotshapha]

As a pirates fan, very inspiring coach, He always sheds the light of greatness.

[@basildlamini9156]

I feel for Mothobi and I agree with Rhulani that the coaches must also take the blame. When Mothobi was at highlands park, he was a DM, when he joined Sundowns he played as a DM. I expected his conversion to CB to make it easier for us to play from the back as in the case of Rivaldo, Oubaas, Zungu. These players are good with the ball and I expect Mvala to at least be better than Lebusa or Grant or Rushien etc when it comes to playing the ball under pressure. Looking at the mistake he made It looks to me like there was an element of overconfidence or complacency also because it happened twice in the same match. The first time he got a yellow, and the second time we conceded. I believe Mvala can and shoud improve that aspect of his game.

[@Demru_1]

It's not easy being a coach

[@DakiNgaka-vn2cz]

what n amazing coach we had at sundowns.u did ur best RHULANI,big up young coach

[@lwando6070]

Khosi Fan here, I just want to say I like this Guy. Such great qualities of a leader and a coach.

[@samuelmaraba2775]

Pep Mokwena!!...well done for a great seaso ...but im still dissapointed that you have not forgiven Sirino...this guy can be our best player and we can win the CAF CL😊😊

[@ngamlambulazi]

But we forgave him for dropping us for his grandfather's team. He went as far as telling the media that he was the mastermind behind us winning the CAF Champions League. He flew to France to present Zungu with a pirate jersey and lure him against Downs

[@ApostleCrypto]

I’m so proud of coach Rhulani The greatest coach south africa will ever have This man is a hard worker we are in the club world cup We will recover from the game And go win nedbank !

[@SimphiweNgcece]

He has let Sundowns downs on 2 major occasions through the Mvala incidents. It's an obvious example of favoritism.

[@ApostleCrypto]

@@SimphiweNgceceplease respect my chemistry with my brother He’s my brother bro we’re bakwena the family is proud of Rhulani bro And as for Mvala Sundowns fans have forgiven Mvala He will score a winner for CCL one day i forgave him It’s not about greed and lust or desperation for success We have a season to start from scratch All our records were broken but we have next season to start afresh

[@SamkelisoKhumalo-od8df]

Shame 😂 Orlando Pirates were crowned the nedbank cup champions 😊

[@CharlieMhlongo]

Congrats broer, keep it up

[@tshiamomotshabi9862]

Where's the visuals? Bizo you're dropping the ball now. Anyway, our Coach was in the building 💛👆

[@nomsa06]

Co-ask. Where are the visuals? 😢

[@josephmotha5349]

As a Sundowns fan i have to admit that when he left for Pirates i was angry with him. But now i am fully behind him. I love coach Rulani Mokoena

[@thembinkosimochini6188]

Thanks Andile ❤

[@Nzeenzi]

Mvala always kills us in important games. 👆X7🥇

[@mpumeleloNyoso]

I like how how coach rhulani he is talking about lorch's situation

[@Sizwe1842]

Thanks couch u have done good work all these games without a lose, but as for Mvala being a center back we differ I think the guy has costed the team enough now and you have better defenders please don't play him at back, De rouk, Kekana, Ab, Revaldo and Lebusa can do the job, I know you wanted the invisible record like us and deep in your heart you know Mvala costed us that record and I can see most of our opponents tagged him bcz they know he is the weakest link in our defense, but anyway thanks for the good work, I think the team need some rest now bcz our final 10 games were horrible even though we won some I only enjoyed watching the one against ts galaxy

[@SibongileHlatswayo]

Andile coach Rulani is the best .but sometimes people don't tell true pickup my coach

[@TshavhungweT]

Rulani is smart but not street smart some things you can say in public but lets hope he learns he is still young

[@xolileskiti6791]

But guys this is football you must understand that mistakes will happen from players, and it was unfortunate for the mistake was caused by Mvala ,in football everybody commit errors

[@ThabisileMasanabo]

So how do you handle situation where the same mistakes repeat itself by the same player?

[@samkelothwala4587]

His lowkey throwing Mvala under the bus...😂

[@lindanimbuli6924]

this show always has visuals until Sundowns visit, then loadshading... like I've never watched this show without visuals before

[@lindamayambela4672]

😂

[@TheFundingShop]

Title says invisibility. They were invisible on Sunday but not invinsible

[@ronald0113]

You cant tell us about training when Sirino comes on thre is an impact and Sirino is Sundown heritage the shoe shine piano and dont tell us about your family when askin about Sirino . You see more when he plays ...

[@nomsa06]

It’s unfair to put all this on Mvala. Other players had an opportunity to score. Why didn’t they? Putting all this on one person just isn’t enough.

[@Pat5163]

Eish, qI thought Ronwen loved our club kanti he's still here only coz of Rulani and not the badge😢😢

[@karabo4265]

I was disturbed to hear that cos I rate Ronza very highly

[@clementpotego4556]

Every player wants to play fora coach that understand an listens to them...all this players speak highly of Rhulani although some Supporters don't they want to play for Sundowns because they are happy....check Liverpool many are not happy that Klopp is going even want to live the club with him cause they are happy around him they understand each other it's more of the relationship they share as technical and players also before football hence if you followed most of mokwena's interview he said @Sundowns you must be a good person first before you become a good player

[@karabo4265]

@@clementpotego4556 I hear you but we don’t need another Sirino saga cos if u can recall Sirino became a problem after pitso left & tried to poach him to ahly

[@Sizwe1842]

The problem is that wen supporters tell what they think they were talked about loosing their betting tickets, what the one have to say about that cost mistake from Mvala?

[@kwandaclement7473]

Well it takes sundowns to beat sundowns .our last game was very very important for the pride of the badge and for finishing with invincible.playing mabhena for 90 minutes I dont understand the boy is still needs a lot of lesson .you have sirino , Lorch ..again mvala has always costing us in crucial matches and it shows that he’s not natural center back and you saw it with Bafana Bafana . I’m tired of him because we have rushine de reuck .sirino.

[@ronald0113]

Sirino wearing Al Ahly ragalia was to show Al Ahly that hear i am, i am not playing see me so the manner he did it was unprofessional but hey when you desperate for game time you can do anythin, you see the the impact he brings when subbed on but when you do not enough for the coach then you get desparate ... he talks about emotion but dont see the emotion state of some of his player so stop bushin

[@sbusisoshelembe8367]

Lorch is human, Sirino isn't... Lorch makes mistakes that must be forgiven. Sirino's mistake can't be forgiven... Interesting nonsense...

[@nomsa06]

Seems like a personal attack and battle.

[@enockgabuza9293]

It's clear that you don't need serino in your team.....I think mvala is also going to struggle to play in your team again

[@WamoAfrica]

Sell both and get others

[@SkhumbuzoJamela]

But he himself Rhulani left Sundowns and he was accepted back!! I don't buy this!!

[@ephraimmachechisa6765]

Congratulations Rhulani

[@unkelsosa]

My gaffer.

[@michaelmathebula3312]

Rhulani, you are confirming that you personal have problem with Gaston, people who runs the club wants him but you don't, shame on you.

[@cameronsomatamba]

People who run the club dot select starting 11, we all saw the disrespect ya serino. He must F** off

[@tk_alarcon77]

Totally agree

[@nomsa06]

Totally agreed. He’s allowing his personal dislike for him to drive the narrative. That’s actually unprofessional.

[@Pat5163]

If Lunga made that Mvala mistake he was gonna subbed off same time 😂😂😂😂

[@EmihleBhoxa]

He was subbed u mvala👀

I am very disappointed at Rulani Mokoena you don't need to spill the tea about your organisation whether you like the player or not 🚫 that's not good leadership 😔.

[@ronnymotsepa-nb3pc]

This poster weont even pass our messages but if it was chiefs nd pirates he would have done it without wasting any time ,I'm starting to loose intrestes for Our football nd I fully agree With Ree Zuma some teams are useless Nd big for nothing nd media is busy spreading propaganda

[@Sizwe1842]

I am with you member it sounds like Mvala is played bcz of being liked not quality

[@ThabaneMatthew-ul7yf]

Can you please leave our coach alone,usiwinele I league,we are happy, about players he has to put the players he wants,and the players that play for him, you guys if you want Sirino take him to your clubs,we maSandawana we are happy with our coach.

[@Letsoalo_Maupa]

I don’t believe Rulani came here to count Mothobi Mvala mistakes of the losses we had not blaming himself to convert him to defender without proper assessment. That’s how Soweto people attitude in real life

[@ronnymotsepa-nb3pc]

Somebody please tell Rulani that we know as fans we mean nothing to Him but we are tired of his Favouritsm Nd his Hatred towards Rushin Dereuck Nd Abdoiul ,if he Was an honest man like he usually claim how good human being he is he would have won the Caf champions league

[@bongaputana26]

Stop with ur hatred and jealousy wena... How many clean sheet do we have this season without rushine and botoul?

Rulani thinks he’s perfectionist with the best football CV. His best football moment is at Sundowns not even one page. He planted spies in the team and he practices nepotism and favouritism

[@raymondmanamela5998]

In life you must grow well where you are planted and this is exactly what coach Rulani Mokoena has done. Success is not easily identifiable but failures are celebrated. He's still growing, a young South African coach with so much humility, whose hard work is also recognized around the globe. Mandoza prophecy in one of his songs is well captured and always manifest when talent is supposed to be praised. Hard work must not be confused with arrogance. I wonder if he achieved this at some of the clubs would this Bring Him Down Syndrome continue relentlessly

[@eddiemokgatlhe8145]

With a team as big as Downs, which Coach wouldn't be accused of such though. I doubt anyone could satisfy every player , look how strained the relationship was with Pitso and Teko, and that overseas player I forget his name. He left Downs and swore at Pitso on Media

[@ronald0113]

​​@@eddiemokgatlhe8145 but teko was playin for the team and his influence was noticed ... this guy is a clown if he loose against parates he cant be coach of the season he's not consistence he is failing to win Caf cause of his Ego he is struglin domestically the league its sundowns heritage and this means if sundown dont win the league then there is no silverwear in the cabinet ...

[@eddiemokgatlhe8145]

@@ronald0113 I know Teko was playing full time but he was not Pitsos favourite and if it was upto Pitso, he wouldn't have fielded him, that's when people will see his baisness. Again, when Rhulani asked for 3 years to see what he can do about CAF cup, people misquoted him and said he's undermining Pitso because it took Pitso 8 years to do that. It's really tough to be on These Coaches shoes
