OUR SUPPORTERS KNOW ALL TOO WELL – MSIMANGO

“Our supporters know all too well that it has been a long time since the Club has won silverware.” Given Msimango said as quoted by SoccerLaduma.

“I don’t want to sound like a broken record telling them it is a process, and they must be patient. Which in all honesty is true, but as players we try to focus on the controllable.

“That is to focus on your game and giving the best performance possible to entertain the fans, because that is what they expect from Kaizer Chiefs. We want to win every match we play and thereby get the rewards our supporters deserve.”
