The challenge for StuartBaxter, says one of South Africa’s foremost technical brains, Farouk Khan, is whether the he can use the material he has correctly. By Tshiliboy IOLsport KaizerChiefs
’I’m delighted to join a team I supported as a youngster,’ says Keagan Dolly on signing for Kaizer Chiefs
“The coaching philosophy is going to be very important for Chiefs this season,” renowned analyst Farouk Khan argues “For me, Stuart is now like a baker who has all the ingredients at his disposal and all he has to do is bake a delicious cake. But the question is can he change his philosophy for the good of the team? Because the way I look at it, the kind of squad Chiefs have assembled is the kind that can deliver the classy attacking football Chiefs are renowned for.
“I think this could mean Baxter having to change his philosophy just looking at the material he has. He might have to swallow his pride and get Chiefs playing the way they used to in the olden days because they have the players to do so.
Following last season’s one-year transfer ban imposed on them by the Confederation of African Football after they flouted the rules when they acquired the services of Madagascar striker Dax, Chiefs embarked upon a signing-spree that has got their long-suffering fans excitedly anticipating the upcoming campaign.And Khan who has previously won trophies at Chiefs as an assistant coach believes the excitement is justified.
“They have signed some fantastic players in Keagan Dolly and Njabulo Ngcobo. It is like back in those days when they had Ace and the other brilliant playmakers – Dolly can do that for them. And Ngcobo reminds me of Lucas Radebe – solid defender who can play from the back. Cole Alexander might be a little old but he brings vast experience to the team. I think this is an opportunity for them to get back to the Chiefs of old when they were called the Glamour Boys.
