Mamelodi
Sundowns Football Club will be crowned the Premier Soccer League champions on
the 19th of May 2012. The manner in which the coach (Johan Neeskens) is
handling matters at Chloorkop, one can’t help but to be convinced that Sundowns
are to be crowned PSL champs.
The team is
taking chances when given an opportunity. They recorded 30 goals in 15 games,
14 more than both Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates - a rate of 2 goals per
game.
The
transfer rumours of Itumeleng Khune and Siphiwe Tshabalala on their way to
Chloorkop and Elias Pelembe out. This means Shabba can play at left wing, while
Lebohang 'Cheeseboy' Mokoena can shift to the right. That means Periperi's void
have been dealt with easy.
Khune
between the posts means not every ball that passes the defence has an 80%
chance of going in the back of the net. Mabhuti Khenyeza (joining SuperSport
United come end of the season) can leave as he is not a regular and his present
wouldn’t be missed.
Pirates has
to take business in Africa, of which it might be to Sundowns' advantage,
considering that Benni McCarthy might be kicked and that means that goals will
be very rare plus Happy Jele is injured… no injury time goals.
The departure
of Khune and Shabba will mean that Amakhosi will only be left with Tinashe
Nengomasha and Jimmy Tau as key player who Chiefs can depend on as there are no
transfer talk that are emerging from Naturena.
Sundowns
six times champions of Premier Soccer League.
