Orlando Pirates have returned to the CAF Champions League competition after a few years out and their former captain believes they have the best team to compete in the tournament. "No, we don't have the right team. We have the best team. We have good players in all the departments. Looking at how we won the two trophies and finished second in the league shows you how good the team is," Motale told Soccer Laduma."Above all that, you know they have technology to check other teams like even in Ghana without even going there. In our times we only knew about those countries and teams when we got there.
The 1996 Africa Cup of Nations winning defender added that the team's pre-season training in Spain will also help significantly as they will gain experience on how other countries run their squads.
