Orlando Pirates legend Benedict ‘Tso’ Vilakazi has expressed his bold view about Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi.
The Tunisian coach led Amakhosi to the Nedbank Cup triumph, ending a ten-year trophy drought despite not having a good run in the Betway Premiership.
Nabi only won eight league games, drawing another eight and losing 12 in 28 that he oversaw in his first season with the Phefeni Glamour Boys.
Despite winning a trophy, Vilakazi says the league stats are too horrible that Chiefs can keep Nabi for next season. He stated that he took the club from “better to worse”
‘NABI TOOK CHIEFS FROM BETTER TO WORSE’
“Eight wins in 28 games? Chiefs is not just a team, it has a history of conquering South African football. This is one team that can fill the stadium during the week, not only on weekends. Now you guys are okay not getting into the Top Eight?” Vilakazi asked on omniaudioafrica YouTube Channel as quoted by KickOff.
“No ways! The coach failed. Let's not talk about Nedbank Cup. There were a lot of things that happened, that people were not happy with. Any team can win a trophy. Magesi have won Carling, it tells you any team can win a cup. Magesi and Chiefs are on the same level now?
“For me, Nabi took the team from better to worse. Let's go check other coaches at Chiefs before they had to leave, some coaches didn't even finish the league and had to leave. He had a pre-season. What did he do enough, really, to say he needs to stay?
“There's nothing, to be honest. He's not better than the previous coaches. Nabi must go. If you keep Nabi, it's a dream that Chiefs next season can win the league or in the next two years, not even top four!”
