Komphela praises Manqele's work ethic

Cape Town – Kaizer Chiefs coach Steve Komphela praised Edward Manqele for his work ethic against Jomo Cosmos in a PSL encounter.

Held at Olen Park Stadium the match ended in a goalless stalemate which was also Amakhosi’s fifth draw of the 2015/16 campaign.

According to KickOff, Komphela says that Manqele’s attitude shows that he is willing to work hard for his spot at the club.

“The boy has a great attitude, and the boy says yes to hard work,” the Amakhosi coach said.

“It’s rare when you see a striker chasing the ball willingly and defends, and Jabu did that.

“There was one run he made chasing the ball to the corner of our big box – you don’t see that in many strikers.

“Now that’s a message to say: ‘Listen, I’m willing to offer myself to the gold and black shirt, are you prepared to be with me?’ And yes, we are prepared to be with him.”

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
