The Tebza vs Leal "substitute" fight

Scelo Oscar Dlamini says: What’s up with Tebogo Moloi?

Ziggy Ndod'emnyama Dengana

According to Phumulani Msiba of SuperSport Tebogo Moloi had an argument will Julio Leal when Thulasizwe Mbuyane was about to be substituted... but if that’s true (but I think its true cos Leal didn’t want to comment when he asked him) Moloi might have been against the sub of Mbuyane and if that's so, well he was right cos our midfield was dead with Isaac Chansa the passenger whom I think should have been substituted instead of Mbuyane.

True Juju Mbuyane was not supposed to be substituted.

What is the job of the assistant, to be a "yes man" to the coach? Moloi was right. Leal o re tlwaela masimba chips. Mfundo saw long time ago that Chansa was off-form and I wanted to eat him alive, but I have since changed my tune. When will this slow thinking Leal see this?

Scelo Oscar Dlamini

Even if Mbuyane wasn't supposed to be substituted, I think Moloi didn't use the right strategy to address that with the head coach. They can't just argue in front of us... He sounds more like a rotten potato in our team... that's just my view.

Mara guys, when you an assistant, you an assistant and that's it. You can't run at the coach. The coach is the final decision make unless he requires a view from the assistant the assistant stays on the bench. Most jobs of the assistants are to give a technical view of the whole assessment of players not talk about substitutions and stuff. What Moloi did was very unprofessional, he must know where his job and where to draw the line. To even argue with the coach publicly like that? He must know his job.

Thabelo Khiba

Kanti did this happen publicly and without respect, was it heated? If so, then kso Moloi, you don’t know your place. But that Leal should have substituted Chansa not Mbuyane, I agree with Moloi on that one.

Scelo Oscar Dlamini

I so wish he can be removed and maybe sent to development side. I don't like his attitude that was very unprofessional. Its second time now, it was Kosta Papic and now it’s Leal... Such behaviour from technical team will divide the team.

Most of you people r colonised mentally, just because Leal is Brazilian and Tebza is black you talk crap about Tebza, Leal is clueless period, and we were lucky to win tonight’s game. Klate ran out of steam, Leal didn’t do fokol, instead he subs the only hardworking man on the pitch, Chansa played k!k the whole 90 minutes, but your Leal kept him on the field, call me me whatever you think, but I know most Pirates fans are still lost, and still call white people bo mlungu wami, you crucify Tebza? He has the right to question your clueless Leal cos he is part of the decision making team.

Guys please lets stop throwing stones on Tebza cos we don’t know the real story… crucifying Tebza based on assumptions is not ayoba.

'Sibabalo 'Abenathi Μοηαννες

Guys do you see Alex Ferguson, Pep Guardiola or Arsène Wenger’s assistants anywhere near them? Do you know their assistance? Nope it’s because Tebza is not one of them...

Scelo Oscar Dlamini

Ziggy, there's no smoke without fire! Remember he has a history of doing that.

Remo Moncho

Reading comments here seems like most Pirates supporters want Moloi to be Leal's ball boy or yes man. I personally believe that Moloi is a Pirates legend who cannot want to harm Pirates. My opinion is that Moloi didn't want Mbuyane off as he was making things happen but Leal took him out and left the ineffective Chansa. Let's not treat Leal with kid’s glove cos he is Brazilian and take out our frustrations on Moloi coz he is a local.

Remo, what Moloi did was wrong in every level, his job is to not tell the coach what to do but he must give feedback as per vision and requirement of the coach. He wasn’t selected head coach for a reason; he must sit on the bench and learn his job first.

Remo Moncho

I hear what you saying jujus about Moloi's conduct and believe me when I say I am not making excuses for Tebza but I think like myself he was shocked at what Leal was doing and voiced out his disapproval in a wrong manner. My point is I don't think Tebza wants to destroy Pirates. But to be honest Leal is clueless!!!
