Eish.....bafethu dankie maan some of us needed this talk and chat about how things are in Africa.....the conditions there are so bad....hence the West Africans thrive when they play in Europe.....going back home is not an option.....hence they force themselves to succeed.....the character is built by harsh conditions.....most South African players dont succeed in Europe because of the comfort in the country.....no poverty in the PSL and the other thing is the media.....most sports journalists never played the game....hence they criticize European coaches when they bench SA players.....hence they ruined the career of Zungu..

Eish mfana, so you think under hash conditions, our football could have become better?

Hugo bros has answered this question and demonstrated in the Afcon what’s the point of being skilful without technical discipline , losing the ball in critical moments because you are trying to show your skills. This is professional football, is show business not Micky Mouse business .

[@Demru_1]

A question on SA🇿🇦 players over the years till now, Do you think Daveytons' talent and success Vs Soweto's talent and success Vs KZN talent and success Vs Limpopo talent and success in Mzansi. Who used to lead, who has produced more, who is neck and neck and who's your top3 places that you trust with talent in the PSL era?

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

Thank you for your input. It's obvious that over the years Soweto's talent has dominated Mzansi's football, led, and produced more players. Currently in my opinion it's Capetown, Gauteng, and KZN

[@SoulChurch351]

There will never be a meeting of South African coaches, guys. They just won’t work together. We have Pep Guardiola-lite, aka Rhulani, and Jose Mourinho, aka Pitso. Their football philosophies are very different. For example, Gavin prefers youth football, while Steve and Barker are the only coaches who play direct but tactical football, along with Eric. I can't remember Manqoba's style because he's been in the background, so we don't know. Cavin is good as an assistant. Bra Dance and Morgan Mamila would also be good in that meeting, as well as Lehlohonolo Seama.

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

I hear you, don't you think they will reach a compromise though?

Hola magents wami 👊 my view on mzansi style of play... I think we do have our own style of play, which is dribbling and short passing. Good example of those types of players la badlala our mzansi way ngwuwe Jabzin nabo Steve Lekoalea.. ushaye ebhari nge skill isale ilele 😅😅 so in that regard we do have our style of play as mzansi however the problem we can't maintain it, and it is because of different coaches from Europe e beza nezi tayela zale oorkant. I think we will be naive not to recognize that colonialism played a huge part in us not adopting our own style. Sicabanga ukuthi it is not good enough only the European style is best. Until we stop undermining ourselves, we will never play our style anytime soon. And this has nothing to do with football evolving. I like it that yall rise this kind of issues ngobe sonke sithulile but siya bona ukuthi ayikho lento. As for VAR we really need it in SA some of us we benefit today and tomorrow ku benefita abanye kukhala mina, it is a mess. Nje ngobe sense of knowledge asho nakhona siyokhala because kune umuntu behind VAR as well 😂😂

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

Heita Tebza. From what you pointed out, that means our solution as a nation will be to stick to local coaches that we can identify, and also within the technical team itself bring in former football players. Surely that should make a difference neh? Yah mfwethu ungathi I colonialism found its way into everything in Mzansi, and it's sad. Ng'yabonga mfwethu for you words. We will do our utmost best to bring content that Educates, Entertains and Engages 🙏🏽

[@melusimahlangu8176]

Personally i support dribbling, the way Jabu used to play or Ronaldinho, Messi or Ronaldo x2 What i dont support is this thing of seating on the ball or wiping sweat. Look at how scara ngobese used to do it. It should advance the attack movement.

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

Very true Melusi.

[@thabangcebekhulu1338]

Our style of play is still there eKasi. Our identity is more entertaining which can be confused with “showboating”. There’s a lot of money that has been invested in our football and the people who have invested know nothing about our style. This thing is deep it’s not as easy as taking South African coaches those coaches attend courses which are ran by Europeans. For a coach to be qualified you have to pass all those courses angithi so already the identity will be hindered.

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

Another excellent point Thabang, your observation is deep 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@thabangcebekhulu1338]

With all due respect Muthi doesn’t work in Football.

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

@@thabangcebekhulu1338 its debatable, some would emphasize their experiences with how it might have helped them, some might say it's absolute hogwash. The topic in itself is very polarized amongst the football fraternity. Each to their own I guess. Thabang, you've piqued my interest 🤔. Are you involved in football in any capacity?

[@thabangcebekhulu1338]

Ola, yes I took over my dad’s football team Movers FC. He sold the team’s status around 2015 due to corruption in the game which I guess you guys might touch on in the future. My team currently plays Kasi tournaments around the Eastrand. I have a few ex pro players in my team.

[@JabuMahlanguDiskiShandis]

@@thabangcebekhulu1338 I can tell that you have a solid football background. I like what I'm hearing, these are the kind of stories we want South Africa to hear about. Let's do this send an email to a gentleman named Marcus on [e-mail], on the email write the story of your team, the background, achievements, success stories, challenges faced. If available, also include pictures. It would be great if you send it soon. Let me know if you were able to reach him, his emails have been giving him challenges of late. Send all of that, I want to see something

[@reginaldsibanyoni6588]

Magents, what makes you think that former players will be able to run SAFA ? what knowledge or expertise do ex pro players have to run SAFA ? Their heart will be in the right place yes I agree but runny SAFA I don’t think the solution will just be a former player.There’s a lot of South Africans who have never played football but could be the right people. To make an example the current best coach in Africa “Rhulani” he’s not an ex pro but I believe he’s doing well. Great conversation though you guys must get ghost man that will have neutral opinion.

You are busy wanting to be a leader of an organisation but you do not know their current CEO that alone shows that you guys are not ready or clued up. And people should know that SAFA does not owe anyone positions on the bases that you are legends. Otherwise Leaders will always show potential and work hard to reach their goals without the entitlement you guys have. Just school yourselves Bhudas and be ready to start from your LFA to be a leader.. and not expect to be parachuted to the NEC... Otherwise we all know that SAFA and Jordan are corrupt and they must be removed.
