I'm not the
one to lambaste players over the "age" of thirty, however in any sane
footballing country in the world; Luis Boa Morte would be a definite hell NO!
This guy last did something meaningful in the period of 2001-2007 even then,
that was a mere 27 goal return in 156 appearances... that’s a FAIL!
But because
of the countinous decline of South African football maybe he will do a Benni McCarthy
and give us some last kicks of a dying horse.
Let’s face it our beloved Premier
Soccer League is nowhere near even to some of the ordinary mid table English
Premier League matches or their Championship (First Division) sides so this Boa
Morte dude might be a winning gamble.
In all of
this, one would safely conclude that, South African football is dead and will
never see the heights it once saw. Bring us active high profile names not a
"has been player"...a "has been failure" nogal! We don’t
want players who will only be good in the change room but players who can come
here and COMPETE… for a good number of years.
What will
happen to Boa Morte after the CAF African Champions League? Ma Satafrika
amahle, you guys are getting a raw deal.
