Since Rulani Mokwena became the sole head coach at Mamelodi Sundowns, rumours of Manqoba Mngqithi's departure have been circulating nonstop.
The ex-Golden Arrows boss was demoted to senior coach at the start of the season and his contract at Masandawana up for renewal in June.
On the "Rulani Opens Up On Mngqithi's Future" story, the 36-year-old said that he doesn't know if Mngqithi is staying at the club but presumes that he's still happy to be there.
Here's what the readers think:
"Mngqithi is happy at Sundowns and there's no pressure there. They form a good technical team and I will be very happy if he stays," says user250737.
"I don't think he is happy, if he stays it will be because of the fat pay cheque!" says Patti.

In a birthday message dedicated to Mamelodi Sundowns' billionaire owner Dr. Patrice Motsepe, Mokwena suggested that the South African football fraternity doesn't appreciate him enough.
On the "Credit To Dr. Khoza Kaizer, But Motsepe Is Pulse Of PSL Now" story, Mokwena mentioned that critics don't see the bigger picture on how Dr. Motsepe is keeping professional football alive in South Africa.
Here's how the fans responded to Mokwena's comments:
"You talk as if you own a cent of Motsepe's money. You act like you're his spokesperson," says Rio Da Khosi.
"I hear you my coach. The article is misleading in that no South African football fraternity was divided. It's Kaiser Chiefs and it's fans who feel outmuscled. Sundowns never took 6 points from them before like they have done in recent times. We walk all over them like Powerlines FC. They're feeling the heat," says butimabuya.
"I think without money, Sundowns wouldn't be where they are now. Chiefs Pirates worked for their success. Sundowns bought success," says thabotouchme.
"In the modern world of soccer, money rules. Just check how much was spent in the January signings across Europe. If Chiefs and Pirates (especially Chiefs) rely on past glory, then soon they will disappear from football. Brace yourselves because this trend will go on and more and more football clubs will emerge with big spenders," says makhause2.
"The PSL is a one horse race now. Thanks to Mr. Motsepe," says maakewitness089.
