With just one win in his opening four matches, Pitso Mosimane says he will use the current FIFA break to strengthen his ailing Esteghlal squad.
Mosimane and his team managed to pick up their first win in four attempts over the weekend, with what he describes as his 'weakest team yet'
The 60-year-old coach has been blunt about the problems facing his side at present, including a lack of winning mentality from his players as well as a shoestring squad that is unable to compete at the level he requires.

With Esteghlal's next match only coming on 21 November, 'Jingles' hopes that he can use the time to rope in much-needed reinforcements to his side.
"We hope that in the FIFA break we can add at least two more players," Mosimane told members of the media.
"I hope we don't lose two players in the FIFA break, of course we need to strengthen the team. Every team wants to strengthen - even those who are winning want to be stronger," he said.
" If the team gives us [financial] support, we can bring in a few players," Mosimane said.
The next task for the former Al Ahly coach is a game against Mes Kerman in the Hafzi Cup.
