Let's check out what they had to say...

Comments

Swallows coach Ernst Middendorp snubbed former club Kaizer Chiefs in his ranking of where he enjoyed his coaching the most. 

The veteran German coach came narrowly close to winning the Nedbank Cup in 2019 and famously lost out on league glory the following season on the final matchday. 

Middendorp stated that although Chiefs are run at the "highest level", he suggested that the club lacks in certain technical areas. 

In the "Ernst: What I Wish For Chiefs..." story, he hopes the club uses its resources to the maximum. Here's how our readers replied: 

"I still remember Ronaldo's comments after his return to Old Trafford. For someone who has never been exposed, you might think that the facilities at the club are world class but the true sense is that they are not," says Shikabala. 

"Ernst, do you perhaps want your job back?" says Fela. 

"Well said coach Ernie," says Abuti. 

"Concentrate on building a better team at Swallows, focus on that rather than thinking of the past. Your team is going to be relegated because you can't even put a better starting line up at Swallows," says coachtsorame.

Abafana Besthende shocked Chiefs in a five-goal thrilled in Polokwane, to earn their seventh league win of the season. 

Co-coach Vusimuzi Vilakazi says his side went into the clash with nothing to lose and says their plan was to have a go at Amakhosi, but wants improvement on the defensive end...

Here's how the readers replied on the "Arrows Coach: Our Plan Was To Go At Chiefs" story: 

"Your plan worked. The 3rd goal was beautiful work," says Vha Musanda Cosmos Na Bucs.

"Problem is not the Chiefs coach, but the so called mbamba legends who instead of encouraging the players at Chiefs, they opt to praise the Downs bench," says pgyakeni. 

"That boy Khumalo is good. Him and Makhubela combined very well. Arrows deserve the win," says Abuti. 

"Kaizer Chiefs e lahlile (Lost out)," says Saavedra.
