Rulani Mokwena has singled out an Orlando Pirates player who, according to the Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach, is having his best season yet in the PSL.
Having met in the Nedbank Cup quarterfinals recently, Sundowns and Pirates meet again, this time in the DStv Premiership at Orlando Stadium on Sunday.

Mokwena singled out Paseka Mako as one of the dangerous players in the Pirates side and said the former Chippa United player is having probably his best season yet in the top flight.
"Computer, Mako. Top player. He's had a very good season. In fact this is probably his best season in the PSL, apart from that very good season he had at Chippa. But Paseka has been exceptional for Pirates," Mokwena told the media.
"He has given them so much dynamism on the left channel because of his movement and his ability to play in tight areas allows them to be able to come out of pressure from the left-hand side and to develop dangerous situations through overlaps and underlaps. His relationship with either Vincent Pule or (Deon) Hotto or even sometimes Gaba (Mhango) is very strong and makes the left channel probably the most dangerous for Pirates.

"I watched them against Enyimba and again Paseka was very good."
Sundowns have dropped four points in their last two matches and have allowed second-placed AmaZulu to move within just one point of them on the DStv Premiership standings. Sundowns could be in second place by the time they play the Buccaneers, if Usuthu beat KZN rivals Golden Arrows on Saturday.
The clash between Bucs and Downs is scheduled for Sunday 02 May at 15:00
