For
Bafana Bafana to succeed they need to adopt the Kaizer Chiefs approach, but
more broader in heaving a coach that will run two parallel plans at once by integrating
the development structures and junior teams in ensuring that the culture of South
African football and creating a player pool to ensure depth.
We
need a coach that will produce a football manual on how he intends to link
these two; this will address the core problem of South African football
that of development being effective and attended to, while we make sure that
senior team wins.
I
know Gordon Igesund is the best however his football philosophy lives much to
be desired for and in his years of coaching I have known him for quick fix and
living for today no youngster can I recall he natured and moulded, thou I can
give you many old players he revived their careers.
This
is of concern to me looking at the future of South African football and player
development at a younger age; I doubt his commitment in supervising and having
a plan for junior to ensure their feed our national team.
Yes
I know he can take us to 2014 World Cup and other events but after he too
leaves the post, South African football will be in the same state that of no
future and no manual on how to preserve the culture of South African football
and that of development.
This
is my view and of cause Pitso Mosimane deserves to be fired. Do we really have
such a coach in South Africa that can provide us with the above?
