Comments
Kaizer Chiefs legend Siphiwe Tshabalala has opened up on how he feels about his former side's struggles in recent years.
The Soweto giants have not been able to win any silverware in nearly eight seasons now, with the Nedbank Cup being their last chance at a trophy for this season.
Shabba, who enjoyed an illustrious career with Amakhosi, is sad about the current state of affairs but also understands the club is in a transitional period.
The dreadlocked baller was weighed in on Chiefs' season and is surprised that the Buccaneers aren't receiving as much scrutiny as the Glamour Boys as they are equal on points in the DStv Premiership.
Here's how the readers reacted to the "Shabba Questions Chiefs Scrutiny Compared To Pirates" story:
"Siphiwe you are lying, Pirates has a trophy. What does Chiefs have? Secondly, if you understand soccer you can see the direction Pirates' style of play is taking, unlike Chiefs.
"Pirates lack consistency in their play, whereas Chiefs, I cannot understand their play," says Fela.
"Nyawana is confused, Pirates won the MTN 8 unlike his former club, which last tasted glory 10 years back," says klenkwe82.
"Difference: Bucs have won the MTN 8 this season, while Chiefs are 8 years into a trophy draught," says Mdannanna.
"'Stats are like a bikini' looking at the points paints the wrong picture. Pirates has won the MTN 8 twice in the past three seasons, and lost in the CCC (CAF Confederations Cup) final.
"They have players in the Bafana squad and Chiefs does not," says Slow_Poison.
"I think there's an interference from the management in terms of team selection and which players they want to release or to bring in, as we've seen, the team buys players even after firing a coach," says mqobifanuelmhlanga.

Sticking with Amakhosi, Eric 'Tower' Mathoho has opened up about his strange injury which he suffered in training three weeks ago.
The veteran's contract runs out at the end of the season and explained that he got the injury in a friendly training match against Chiefs' Diski Challenge side, and could return in a few weeks.
Mathoho started jogging last week, but has had to make adjustments to his diet, with club physiotherapist David Milner crediting his recent discipline.
Here's how the readers reacted to the "Tower Opens Up On Freak Injury" story:
"The tower is slowly towering down... Ukudla futhi eish," says tebogomokhasi6.
"The Kwinika guy must be taken back to his Stellies team, maybe a player plus cash transfer for Mendieta/Mthethwa. This guy is below the standard at Chiefs," says Khosilannet0.
"Recover Tower," says Boss Ngida who could see the experienced campaigner sooner rather than later.
