Following Xola Mlambo's impressive performance in Orlando Pirates Nedbank Cup win against Ajax Cape Town last weekend, Orlando Pirates head coach, Milutin 'Micho' Sredojevic has linked new Bucs arrival, with Spanish former central midfielder, Xabi Alonso.
Mlambo made his second appearance in the colours of the Ghosts against the Urban Warriors and already Micho thinks the Soweto-born player portrays the qualities similar to that of Alonso.
Supporters Club members were never going to let the opportunity pass to be sarcastic in their response to the Serbian coach's statement.
