Arthur Zwane has chosen the ONE person he believes has been the team’s top player since the season’s beginning.
According to Arthur Zwane Kgaogelo Sekgota is the Chiefs player who has excelled in the team’s lineup this year, and the majority would agree with him.
And Sekgota has done that brilliantly so far, so much so that he even caught the eye of Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos.
Now, what Zwane feels is missing for Chiefs is a right-footed player who’s as brave as Sekgota to spark the team to life on the right-hand side of the midfield.
In his assessment, Zwane believes the only thing Sekgota should improve on is his decision-making in the final third in order to score goals.
ZWANE CAN’T STOP RAVING ABOUT IMPROVED KAIZER CHIEFS STAR
“Ever since we started this season, he is our star player,” Zwane told journalists on Wednesday.
“When you look at the chances we have created, he is always in good areas at the right time. Sekgota has been doing well.”
“And we want to help other players to be at the same level as him. He is never going to be perfect; he will make mistakes but so far, so good for him.”
He added: “I’m happy for him because he had to be put on a programme where we pushed him because we realised that we need a player like him to play the entire 90 minutes as we couldn’t use him as an impact player all the time.”
“He responded very positively, and as you can see, at least now he can last in the game because whenever he is in the game, anything can happen.
“We need to help him now to improve his decision-making in the final third, and he will be deadly.”
“The good thing is that he is no longer just crossing the ball, he targets areas, and you must have seen the one Caleb missed, and Ashley was also there, and it came again from Sekgota.
“If you look back, the style of Kaizer Chiefs we used to dominate from the wingers, had players who were very quick on 1v1’s they would skin you.”
“And bring in crosses and look for combinations, and when you look at Sekgota, that identity is coming back, and that is what we are trying to do right now,” concluded Zwane.
