Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos recently told off his critics especially those attacking him online, terming their grievances as ‘nonsense.'
The majority of the critics were questioning the Belgian's selection ahead of South Africa's friendly game at home against Zambia. Some were unhappy that someone like Thembinkosi Lorch was not considered despite his showings for Moroccan outfit Wydad Casablanca where he has assists and five goals in nine matches this season.
Broos insists he knows what he wants with Bafana Bafana. Have a look at the reactions by fans as sampled by Afrik-Foot.

As a Chiefs fan, I am waiting for the first match at the FIFA World Cup against Bafana Bafana – Mpomo Justice
Lately, the way Broos responds, he knows he has qualified and doesn't care what you all think, and does reality is his goals are achieved – Keke Khoza
Is it wrong to think you are important and say what you want? Does one have to think they are not important and say what you want them to say to take them seriously? All South African football fans are important are free to express their views – Sphamandla Mkhuleko Ndlovu
Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos is definitely cooking Kaizer Chiefs FC and the fans of Thembinkosi Lorch – Monelo Gqibisaa
People will talk, even some media rooms might also write to promote whoever they like, but at the end of the day the Hugo broos decide and also face the critics from the very same people – Bernard Khoza
Hugo Broos was never rejected by Kaizer Chiefs, but Chiefs could not afford him because he is an expensive coach – Mntsentsethi Qesmdizwe

But he must stop attending Kaizer Chiefs matches, even Orlando Pirates' Khoza once blocked him – Solly Baloyi
Hugo Broos, is coaching the national team, and not some Premier Soccer League team. Just make South African soccer fans proud by winning games – Johannes Mokgosi
Sometimes, I like his team, but choosing individuals or players based on the team's performance is a big no for me. Even if the team struggles, you can pick one player who is doing good from that team, without judging them as a unit – Disemelo Seitei ‘Dee Jay'
His arrogance, one would think he has won silverware with Bafana Bafana – Ali Zitoli
Mamelodi Sundowns under Rulani Mokwena made him dangerous last AFCON. Look at him crumble like peanuts at this upcoming edition. I wish he plays Nkosinathi Sibisi and Mbekezeli Mbokazi at the back and Sipho Mbule as a 10 – Martin Chabalala
