“I have a mission here with Kaizer Chiefs, I have a mission, I'm not here for the money and I love this club. I am strong, I don't lose my confidence quickly like that because my history is big.”

He further stated that certain colleagues had leveled criticism, although he refrained from naming anyone specifically.

“I'm gonna sacrifice everything to go back to where Kaizer Chiefs belongs and the criticism is part of the job but sometimes when you see your colleagues, coaches, criticize you, that' a lack of respect,” the coach added.

“Especially when you are in a bad situation, that's a lack of respect, that's what impacted me, not the rest but being criticized by your own colleague who can be in your own shoes or who has been in your own shoes. 

“But I do believe and I have a strong formation and strong experience, I know what I'm doing and I will get it right.”
