Let's take a closer look at what they had to say...

Comments 

Rulani Mokwena celebrated one year in charge as sole head coach of Mamelodi Sundowns on the night they played out a goalless draw with Petro de Luanda.

Since taking charge on 24 October 2022, Rulani has not lost a single DStv Premiership match, overseeing 20 league matches, recording 15 wins and five draws in the process, seeing them secure the 2022/23 title with seven matches to spare.

Mokwena hasn't been able to win a cup competition yet, coming agonisingly close in the MTN8 final against Orlando Pirates, going down on penalties.

Having already been knocked out of the Carling Cup, Mokwena and his men will set their sights firmly on the African Super League and the big one, the CAF Champions League.

Here's how the readers reacted to the "One-Year In Charge: Rulani's Journey As Downs Head Coach" story:

"Sundowns lost less than 5 league games in five years," says Dominate-downs.

"Ntseki FC supporters hate him but they would want him to coach their team. Keep humbling them coach," says Saavedra. 

"Coach Pitso Mosimane started like this and haters spoke a lot about how he behaved. Look now, the same haters respect and love him a lot and also want him to coach their team," says Tekenya wale downs who added:

"Wow, congratulations my coach I wish you all the best in your career, I know one day you will make SA proud."

"Quality Young Coach. 28 league matches, 23 wins, 5 draws, 0 loses. Ukhona Okhulumayo?" says thulamda.

Read: Chiefs To Reignite Nabi Interest?

A Siya crew source revealed that Kaizer Chiefs could be looking at renewing their interest in AS FAR head coach Nasreddine Nabi for the second time this year.

Chiefs who are without a permanent head coach after parting ways with Molefi Ntseki and redeploying Head Youth Development and Academy, Cavin Johnson as the interim coach.

Although Chiefs' approach of Nabi was denied prior to Ntseki's appointment, sources revealed that the club were keen on bringing in the Tunisian coach before talks between both parties broke down.

With Nabi's contract at AS FAR ending in 2025, Chiefs will most likely have to negotiate a transfer fee with the Moroccan giants. 

Here's how the readers reacted to the "Chiefs To Reignite Nabi Interest?" story:

"They failed to get him while he was a free agent. They can't try now," says Saavedra.

"They should never think about him," says demet.

"That is never going to happen. That information is a lie. Unless he has a release clause, they won't even try negotiating with AS FAR Rabat. And besides, their pride won't allow them to," says siyaz.

"Seems like there's a battle for power within the Motaungs and that is rubbing off badly on the team," says ghettovillage411.

"Fine, bring Nabi, but you should also be willing to break the bank," says Charles Manyike.

"If this is case, l would want to dismiss all of those who negotiate that deal if I were in charge," says user633055.

"With all these talks I wouldn't be surprised if Chiefs announce Lehlohonolo Seema as their new coach. They just like messing with their short tempered fans," says Snowman.

"People must account," says Sir_Zovic.

"Clueless management," says sandile7dube.

"This thing that Chiefs is trying to do, I don't see it working. Instead, Nabi will struggle with these poor players. Time is against you, go for a local coach until the season end," says Black Mamba 2.

"Poor management at Chiefs," says peter11664315.

"Not for Chiefs, maybe other clubs," says matemane.

"Which are those clubs? Chiefs are about to break Chippa United's record of firing coaches. The question is, is Kaizer Motaung still alive, if yes why is he so quite. Just looking on while his children are destroying his legacy," replies oupa.phiri27.
