Mamelodi Sundowns 0-1 Stellenbosch FC | Coach Manqoba Mngqithi’s post match press conference | MTN8

[@ericthathaisen1081]

Manqoba belongs to lower teams in betway premiership,not sundowns

[@ThokozaneMbuyisa]

This headless chicken football style is not gonna take us anywhere coach.

[@CorneliusMokhele]

Hola Gents; I wonder wheres the host Khentse .He wanted Coach PepRulani out after we lost Nedbank Cup.Now we loosing at home in semi finals .This team is playing too many long balls.Too many crosses.We dont seem to have direction.we lost our Philospy of Shoe Shine and Piano ..Our defense is playing high line and they always caught us on counter attacks.Its sad reality that Coach is trying to use formation that doesn't allow us to play ball possession.Our players are more of ball possession and not running .This direct football won't work.Coach Manqoba needs to catch a wake up or else he will go.

You and who? We are not Al Ahly, we dont have a God given right to win every game. We hit the crossbar how many times? The coach must drop Lebusa and Kekana, otherwise we are ok.

The problem is Manqoba has been with the team since Pitso and he knows how we play, even before Pitso we have the same style of football. Why is he trying to change the whole thing? he know the profile of players we acquired while been there are bought because of the way we play not running fast with the ball.

[@setladifortune30]

Manqoba is changing from Rulani style to Pitso's style...Pitso wasn't playing a pretty football it was about grinding results

[@mzwandilenhlabathi1048]

Correct member. You cannot just change the philosophy of the team not that you have become head coach. It tells us that all the years you've been there, you didn't believe in our style of play. Now he is making us play like Golden Arrows where him and Steve come from

[@isoboy1000]

@@setladifortune30 Don't lie Pitso never played this nonsense football, he played Piano & Shoshine which is our identity. Manqoba is bringing something foreign to our players, something that doesn't fit the profile of our players.

What i love a lot about Rhulani is his interpersonal skill. He will never let you blame his players. He always take a stand for his players 💪💪💪

[@nompilomabaso5455]

I love Manqoba a lot as a person but as a Sundowns coach looks like he wants to change everything that has been built over the years. Honestly you can’t bench Mshishi without finding someone who can replace him. Ayi spani le 4 3 3 we’re not long ball playing team. We won’t survive in Mabhida we have a very bad history eMabhida. The body language of the players doesn’t convince me especially those Rulani friends

Sundowns must not compete for possession. No! Must dominate it and score goals with ease. Copy that,Maqoba

[@apheleleteakay3081]

We going down. The proof is in the pudding of our 1st match. A no promise land. I could be blind.

[@DkMkhatshwa]

abandoning what Rulan was doing is disastrous. Sundowns is traditionally not a team that plays fast and direct football. Departing from Sundowns style is not a solution..

[@joejongie]

But masandawana....if we took a closer look at the last games of last season ...and the team was still with Mr Ashraaf Rulani Mokweni....our team was already becoming so steady

Ball position football that is progressive. We are shoe shine piano team .That is our blue print. That's the reason why Sundowns is a big team

Coach I humbly ask for u 2 please introduce ur model gradually remember 80 percent of ur team was assembled to play rhulani model which is to control and keep the ball …u don’t put mshishi on the bench u don’t hes no impact player with no legs but football brains 🧠 ..please look into mashego the guy just runs with no impact …Mathews it’s a no no for me I still feel the guy must be benched and learn a bit more

[@CorneliusMokhele]

Good Analysis.Wheres Lorch ;Lesiba Nku and Neo Maema.Mkhulise in midfield.Manqoba wants to prove a point and the Tactics his Implementing doesn't allow him because the players he has are ball possesion players.

[@tshepisosejake4426]

We are not going to win this tournament...Honestly im not confident about coach Manqoba as our head coach . Can we please get another coach...we may be the worst performing team in the next club world cup

[@nathanielwillex1359]

Steve is back and he never did well with other teams

[@zephaniah7387]

Dropping Zwane is a big mistake, failing to replace him with another dynamic player like Maema...is another. Playing Modiba out of position as an outright middle fielder is a no-no. Then using Terrence as a starter at left-back... Yoh!! Allende and Mudau looked lost in there. Manqoba will rely heavily on individual brilliance of the players.

[@setladifortune30]

We must change the possession style of play...if we don't then i don't the reason why we let go of Rulani....this thing of trying to beat a press than going foward is killing us...we invite the press but we don't play football ball to capitalise on transition we always wait for them regroup and be like they're parking a bus This thing of defenders and goalkeeper having more of the ball than our attackers limits our creation of chances

[@yandisankwenkwe6604]

Manqoba is just good in talking but he can't deliver remember when we were beaten 3-0 by pirates on MTN 8 he was the coach and he promised to win the game as he's saying now

[@mduduzithabede1999]

I don’t have faith in Manqoba, I love him as a human being but I don’t think he’s in control of the team… when the players don’t convert chances he blames the missed chances and to me he doesn’t own up to the team not scoring goals which is a bit odd for a head coach.

I see a worried man trying to be brave here,life lesson if it not broken don't fix it, trying to be clever has ruined a lot of good things,this hit and run football he is trying will soon turn to helicopter football,he keeps talking about elementary mistakes but what the root of those mistakes,why is he playing a high line knowing the profile of Stellenbosch,in 2 games a red card and a penalty,he should talk responsibility for this result if he keeps playing like this at least he knows what happens at Sundows if he doesn't win

I don't even see top 8 finish hear. He speaks rotating ball but he said he wanted to get ball forward. All of a sudden Sundowns can't connect 3 passes.
