Ertugral the big Con

Ertugral slams Igesund!!, Ertugral storms out of conference!!!! Kaizer Chiefs coach Muhsin Ertugral fired a broadside at Orlando Pirates, etc. These are headlines that often greet us after Chiefs games; The Chiefs coach has mastered the art of conning all and sundry about the real reasons for his team’s loss. It does seem like the Chiefs coach expects opposition to bend over and take it, if and when they put up a fight, Mr. Ertugral screams foul. Why was Ertugral fired by Kaizer the first time round again? Yes you are quite right, lack of results, and what did he attribute his firing to? Player power I believe, it seems the players were tired of his antics on the bench and his famous sharp tongue that sent Khenyeza to Ajax. It looks like Ertugral has found a new way to blow off steam these days, Look, I don’t like rough play at all but Muhsin Ertugral must realize that soccer is a contact sport and there is no way Chiefs lost because of one rough incident. I have always viewed Ertugral as person more suited to designing a women’s clothing line than a football coach however I do regard him as a person with some understanding of the game. He has made a habit of complaining about each and every contact made by the opposition on his players. He is on a mission to blame the whole loss to Goldstone smacking Bulu and leaving him with a broken nose, granted Goldstone was out of order and needs a serious reprimand but the fact is Maritzburg scored three goals, chiefs scored two, missed a penalty as well. Erturgral would do well to visit the real reasons why Chiefs lost, like Valery Nahayo’s suicidal defending, Quartey’s diabolical ball watching antics, poor finishing, and poor goalkeeping from Khune, etc. Nengomasha is not the softest player I know, many players will attest to many visits to the physio attributed to the him so Ertugral please man take a chill pill and do some real coaching or find a soft job like designing lingerie.

Mr. Know it ALL
