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

Comments

With Mamelodi Sundowns' recent success and their contribution of eight players to Hugo Broos' side before the first round of World Cup qualifiers, their impact on the national team is undeniable.

Benin head coach Gernot Rohr suggested the Brazilians stars made a big difference in the 2-1 result in Durban, with six of them starting in that game.

Khuliso Mudau stated that it helps them as players to connect better in the national team with the majority of them coming from the same club, mentioning that it gives them confidence. 

Mudau recognises that there are players from other clubs in the Bafana set-up, but is adamant they all know and follow the South style of football.

Here's how the readers reacted to the "Great Expectations On Sundowns To Qualify Bafana" story: 

"So far, Sundowns players are the ones who are costing us the qualification. The World Cup qualifier for Qatar against Ghana saw a mistake from De Reuck and now it's Mudau and Williams making errors.

"Later, Mvala might come in with an own goal," says oupa.phiri27. 

"This is a serious indictment on the likes of Mudau to make comments like those. It just indicates that Sundowns, as a team, does not care about South African football, as long as they dominate it.

"This is not the first of such utterances. Williams also said something to the same effect. Their attitude actually shows in the field of play. They mostly pass to each other. The case in point was the argument between Modiba and Lepasa in yesterday's game.

"You could see Lepasa was asking Modiba why he was not passing to him and Modiba continued with the argument even after Lepasa left him," says msanisto.

"Sundowns lost against Rwanda, as they can't win when it is raining. They lost the MTN8 final in Durban because it was raining. On a serious note, I don't believe in looking at Bafana players in the eye of the team they come from.

"For me, it is not good for cohesion," says Manephilly. 

"Soon, certain accusations will resurface again," says makausemakause53.

Siya Crew sources have indicated that Amakhosi could have made official contact with the Natal Rich Boyz for Barns' services. 

Another source revealed that Richards Bay may want a player from the Glamour Boys in exchange for Barns, which could delay a potential move.

Here's how the readers reacted to the "Chiefs Make Contact For New Winger?" story:

"Kaizer Chiefs' management does not learn. You do not go around buying players before you've hired a coach. What if the incoming coach doesn't want the players presented to him? Is management going to sell and buy new players again?" asks sizweking. 

"Here's a player I wouldn't mind at Chiefs. He's hungry, keen to make a name for himself. He's also a hard working, old fashioned winger," says madlangane.h. 

"They must first get a coach, then he will recommend his own players. They don't learn those ones," says kaujoe.
