Baxter pleased with win but not performance
Posted: 19 December 2012 Time: 08:57 am
Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter says his players were poor in last night’s 2-0 win against AmaZulu at Soccer City.
Goals from Matthew Rusike and substitute Bernard Parker gave Amakhosi the three points to ensure that they stay on top of the log going into the new year.

However, Baxter was not pleased with the performance as he believes they could have done better.
“It wasn’t a very pretty game from anybody’s angle,” he said after the match.
“We have a lot of things to work on; I don’t know the reason why we were so poor with the ball tonight. We have talented players, is it mental or is it because of the Afcon coming up and if this is the last game I don’t know?... I will have a look at that in the debriefing but we can play a lot better,” he added.
Baxter was also not pleased with the decision that referee Thabo Nkosi took after he denied them a penalty after Rusike was fouled in the box, but says that he can’t criticize the referee with the way his side played.
“I’m glad we got three points from the game. But we should have gone out on a bigger high. We missed two or three big chances. The referee (Thabo Nkosi) also missed a big penalty. But my players played so poorly at times I can’t really criticize the referee for making a couple of mistakes,” he said.
AmaZulu coach Craig Rosslee was pleased with the way his side played but was disappointed that they conceded silly goals to give away the match.
“I thought we were doing a good job in the first 35 minutes, I thought we controlled the game. We put them in the areas where I wanted them to go.
“They gave the ball away and we really didn’t punish them, we got some good momentum going and unfortunately we then gave away a silly goal,” said Rosslee.
“We can’t play poorly at the back like that. And we were ok for most of the game but once again a mistake by one of our boys cost us, unfortunately we have to learn from that. But we were still in the game and I thought we gave a very good account of ourselves, I think we played some good football and that’s key for me.
“But it’s promising, I mean to come here against Chiefs and play well and to actually try to play our own game I thought it was great.
“We can now go back home and have a break and regroup and see if we can sign one or two players. We have 14 games to go, we will make a real go of it,” he added.

You were wetting your Woolworths underwear until that time when Tapuwa Cowpini decided to return the favour to Parcow. We heard the two have become more intimate these days.

You are and idiot of note.....KING's biggest dog....always barking at the wrong big tree...Go hang yourself with those panties...You FOKON Spy
Mathoho and Yeye are only qualities de rest ke masepa fela.
But on a second note maybe the lads are a bit tired since the KC squad is always looking the same in every game.
I want BIG frogs not tadpoles....
heheh hehe..Parker is a cow......Nxa.......ninyile nina.
When things get tougher he start fighting with everybody, opposition coaches, SAFA, his CV, EVERYTHING.
Katsande is not a football player, he is just bull dog. If a ball was an apple he would have long swallowed it.
mxxxxx useles Amazulu dat was controlling de game from de on set but der last touches inside de dangerous area was just toilet,
Mathoho and Yeye are only qualities de rest ke masepa fela.
==========================================================
You are starting to sound pathetic.....Why do you lower your standards so bad?......
Let the boys go home and relax for festive and come back in Jan 2013, fresh and hungry .
Thanks to the boys for maintaing the # 1 spot
Thanks to Khosi family , uGucci Man loves you ...my united ,strong, glamorous Khosi family.
We all know that ...there's no team that has won more league titles than Manchester United in England and also there's no team that has won more league titles than Kaizer Chiefs in South Africa.
we as de Galaxy de owner of Pirates Soccer League der 's nothing we can do in an situation like dat.
The second half of the season is one where we shud not make any mistakes, if Yeye gets injured we shud @least hv about 2-3 players that can replace him
42 points to play 4 we shud try nd get them all
Willard Nkabinde is a Cow

Mxm....a Gorilla that has been making noise for the past weeks.....we told you punch very quickly here...Now you only comment with one liners.........Willard Katsande is far better than Lehlohonolo Masalesa.....that mafinyila boy...where is he?

Eeeiiissshhh bhakaniya , what's eating you recently ?
Please bhakaniya don't degrade yourself like that ...................I know that you can talk trash sometimes .
But I know you don't really mean what you just said in your last sentence ....
Well done to the boys....
As long as sisasuzela amaGorilla, I am happy with any kind of results!!!
Poor perfomance indeed and a lil bit of complacency from some players. The important thing is the 3 points, it seemed as though our players were tired for most of the match. Willard Katsande is 1 hell of a workaholic, lately all Yeye does best is remonstrating with the ref. Lebese seems as though some1 promised him 1st team place
====================================================================
I have always believed in Katsande from the beginning of the season and some of my fellow Khosi thought I was was talking kak........Next player to watch is Matthew Rusike....again I started campgning for him to be included in the team from last week.....He did not disappoint yesterday
nice and obvious 3 points for Tortoises fc as i have said yesterday now i declare a war de marathon had begin.
I'll be visiting Alexandra Township and Tembisa .........to see the likes of Mpho 'Bibo' Makola, Patric Phungwayo,Sifiso Myeni, Lebogang Manyama,Kgotso Moleko,Josta Dladla,Jabulani Maluleke,Sibusiso Zuma, Thabo Mongalo...etc
Ke Dezemba Bossssssss
Bobby you will have to sign a replacement for Tower...
Dont think he will stay longer than two seasons...
Rise... Yes we can...
Am so impressed about Rusike he 's cuming very well given game times will also improve his game but he was bit selfish last nite, Mathoho 's world class defender he deserve to be in de Bus for Afcon to replace de Supersport defender forget his name but not unreplaceble evertgreen Sangweni.

***********
The CV Chef is not a strategist, he can't read into his players minds. I mean it was evident Katsande's mind was at home in Zimbabwe. He was thinking of all the kids he left behind who he is failing to support. You could see after that red card when he was down that his mind was mixed. The poor mammal knew it was his last our in that his shack in Naturena, he now have to go home and face the reality. Pity he is not earning enough to even afford a packet of sweets.
Now its time for ama-Phillys games .......

Katsande and his family stays in Naturina Boss... He drives a silver 325 Boss...
You?
Dont show your true colours here... Rather be someone else...
NAAIER!!!
Coach, I believe you rushed to replace Rusike who seemed to enjoy his game, and he was really getting used to playing with his team-mates... but Parker did the job as well..
==================================================
Khosi...Rusike had cramps....He asked to be replaced...I think it had to do with match fitness.....Wait untill he is fully match fit.....KUZONYIWA..

The league should consider 20 teams because the long breaks has an impact on the quality as well...
Our player were thinking Ke December BOSS!!

In other words he's fine coz they lost to chefs...lol ..Coaches are well aware that whenever theyre playing the Mighty Khosi a win for Khosi is mandatory so you cannot blame your lads just congradulate them tell them" Guys we came here to play good football coz we knew we a win was going to be miraculous against the Mighty Khosi so you did well , dont worry we didnt win , it was neva going to happened anyway".

@nEBO
I fully agree with you and the coach...we did not play very well in our own standards but I really don't think we were terrible....anyway 3 points is 3 points unlike Roger it does not matter whether we get them from Chippa United or Pirates.
I refuse to believe that we have already won the title after 16 games...but this season we are ready for war....we have players who want to win the title......Our mandate is the league.... January we are bringing few players to stabilize the team........The Theme continues
KUZONYIWA THIS SEASON
RTG !!!

Sho khosi, but Baxter has a tendency of burning out players... I know the current set-up give us results, we also run the risk of struggling with form from the the burn-out--- and then it might be too late to try and test new combination. We have a lot of players who should be introduced slowly in every game...

When is the tournament tha side ?
Talking about Dayveton.......I was with Jr Khanye few months back at my place , eeeeeiiiisshhhh mara leyintwana azilaleli yazi.
I was so hurt to see him like that wearing icarvella-nyana empunga , 3 quater yencaza. It was like seeing uMercy Pakela with her punch like 'I'm working on my new album'...
Naye uJr Khanye started his own punch line 'Hayi ngiyabuya kuPSL next season bhutiza, my agent is working on something for me, bekwamele ngabe ngitraina nePirates....iyangifuna"
I just smiled and gave him encouragement but deep down, and after I while just shook my head ...akusenabhola daar

I personally don't think we need a right winger , shabba shud fight for his position with lebese nale can play on the right , we need baloyi back in the team wen that svasiya guy came on I was nervous he cost us many games ths season he should go, ngcobo and masango should accompany him, I do believe we need to reinforce at the back and the central middle positions, I don't believe we need firepower at the front I mean two of our strikers a chasing the golden boot, HAVE A KHOSIFIED FESTIVE MZANSI even them gorrilas too
...................................................................................................................................................................
I'm with you Khosi lami, I don't know why but I still believe Sthembiso Ngcobo can still do something for Kaizer Chiefs . If the coach can give him some gametime that guy can play and causes headache to defenders . About Mandla Masango,Svasiya......hayi ngigrand ngabo mina
To be honest with you Khosi even George Lebese , I don't think there's much to offer us. I don't want my judgement to be clouded by these few passes...but that boy is too soft and not consistant , you cannot rely on him for 3 games. He shines today , tomorrow he dissapear , then again comes back ......hayi ngigrand
