"Even Sundowns and Pirates were in crisis and now they're getting results and I think we will get results.

"I hope our guys will be ready for the match against Sundowns. It won't be easy and they know that."
Chiefs, lying fourth on the log without a win in their last three league matches, come off a 2-0 football lesson under the tutelage of log leaders SuperSport United and will be desperate to get their season back on track.
"We didn't play well. We made a couple of mistakes and we were punished," Vermezovic said.
"But you know, at the end of the day we gave everything."
Vermezovic believed he had enough quality players and would not comment on the tactics of his side. "We can't give up now, we can't surrender. We have to fight until the end."
Chiefs striker Bernard Parker backed up the coach and his under-performing side.
"The public is definitely too quick to criticise," Parker said.
"The season is still fresh and on track, and we are contending for the league.
"If the public can continue supporting us, backing us and putting their faith and trust in us, we can definitely turn things around."
