'Mark Mayambela the man to watch'

'Mayambela the man to watch'

Posted: 2010-09-10 10:52

Orlando Pirates legend Tebogo Moloi has picked midfielder Mark Mayambela as the man to turn the heat on for the Mighty Buccaneers when they meet Kaizer Chiefs in the MTN8 Cup semi-final at FNB Stadium on Saturday. 

Mayambela thrilled Bucs fans during the Telkom Charity Cup last month and although he has still to start in an official game for Bucs, Moloi believes that Mayambela can turn the magic on against Amakhosi and send The Ghost into wild celebration on Saturday night.
 
quote
Moloi has since named the former Bloemfontein Celtic midfielder 'Mr Party' ahead of the Soweto Derby on Saturday.
 
"I once mentioned to someone that players from Celtic have never succeeded at Pirates but this boy has made me eat humble pie. He is a township player and I call him 'Mr Party'. I wish he could have arrived at Pirates during the time of Tso Vilakazi, Gift Leremi, Duku Duku and Steve Lekoelea.
 
"Pirates need a player like him to get the Pirates fans behind the team and make the crowd excited.
 
"If he is in the right frame of mind and given the chance to play, he is definitely the player to help Pirates beat Chiefs on Saturday."
 
Moloi, however, conceded that he is wary of Chiefs' current form.
 
"They have a good squad and play a good brand of football. Pirates are still trying to find their rhythm and I am worried that we are meeting Chiefs at the wrong time.
 
"I wish we could have faced them after at least after five games in the League this season."



Do you agree with Tebogo Moloi?

Once a Chiefs fan always a Fool: 2010-09-10 11:08

Agree with Tebza, question is will Krol field him..? The guy is so European, believe in rigid direct football.!

Thabang [The KHOSI One]: 2010-09-10 11:10

What's this now? This oakie is not even on Krol's plans. Who signed him vele? Floyd?

Stonza: 2010-09-10 11:19

he wont even be on the bench...so ja, i wudnt hold my breath, yes as the sub to change the game, yes...but these foreign coaches have killed our soccer, they want skop and jaag now, no more capert football...I am yet to see Sundawana playing carpet this seasom as well, don't se it though with Cale still starting and finish the game!!!

Mxolisi: 2010-09-10 11:19

I'm happy when someone is telling the truth becouse pretending as if you are not afraid is not right. I no all pirates fans are freezing ahead of this game,but others won't admit it.Just speak out if you don't want any heart attact!!

TAXI DRIVER: 2010-09-10 11:22

Tebogo Moloi, Pirates are still trying to find their rhythm and I am worried that we are meeting Chiefs at the wrong time.

Swona (Treble): 2010-09-10 11:27

so tebza still fency himself an OP football club coach, he thinks he can push players into the starting line up/the team! this is why OP cant win a trophy though they have good players, there is so many coaches in the team, if Mayambela is not picked for this game after this praises, the player who will be picked will be under preasure, if he is picked already he is under preasure for one of the so called former greats of OP rate him high! THIS SHOULD STOP. SOMEONE MUST TALK TO THIS MORON TEBZA, THEY MUST SHUT HIM UP!

shatim: 2010-09-10 11:27

TAXI DRIVER, you are the only supporter of bucs who is realistic. If i was a bug fan and had to meet chiefs now, i would be affraid

Sathane: 2010-09-10 11:37

Yeah, It's been a ride...
I guess I had to go to that place to get to this one
Now some of you might still be in that place
If you're trying to get out, just follow me
I'll get you there

Disco: 2010-09-10 11:37

Who's the Pirates Coach kante Tebza? NX
Mr Party ka popeye football
Its development coaches like you that Krol was talking about.

Tolly-ba-Thathe : 2010-09-10 11:46

What's on with KO? It seems as if everytime they run short of stories they resort to taking to the streets and hoping to bump into one of the old players for questioning. If they meet Tebogo Moloi they ask questions and publish it...who's next? Maybe, Nkanka Nzenza! Lol.

I agree with Mayambela being the trump card for us.

vuxiya: 2010-09-10 11:46

chiefs play good brand of football while pirates still need to find the rhythime.but as i followed the game for sometime now,i think that might not be neccessary.what i know is the result will be a close call.i dont want to say who is going to win cos i know this game.LET THE GAME BEGGIN.

Stonza: 2010-09-10 12:04

King
"What a quality street wise 2 player"
You call him street wise two because he can use both his feet to play soccer, unlike some over rated-one band, matatazelas, who is still celebrating a 2months old goal...
Won't mention names though hey!!!
No names King, ok, agree?

All psl trophies : 2010-09-10 12:15

Stonza, whatever comes out of ur stupid mouth is a sh!t, u betta stop. Sunkak is out of dis competition, shutdown ur stingy mouth clown.

LeKhosi: 2010-09-10 12:27

This is one of my favourite players in the league.
I only feared him while playing for Maselesele, but @Pie-Rats he will be no threat to us.
He wud fit wel ko Chiefs if we didn't hav YENDE and Josta.

All psl trophies : 2010-09-10 12:39

Queen will remain our English teacher in this blog as well as skills on developing quality and reliable lie.even her mother knows that. So stop whatever u r trying 2 do stonnwa.

Swona (Treble): 2010-09-10 12:41

Josta wont be playing, chiefs supporters maust get used to their coach, it will be a damn good excuse on sunday, should he has played josta,

Gatyeni: 2010-09-10 12:43

d guy failed 2 break into Celtic starting XI last season but still pirates went on & buy him. & Tebza xuld undastand, with a foreign coach who want 100% discipline on d pitch der is no way Mayambela can survive. Look @ wat is hapening 2 Teko

Gatyeni: 2010-09-10 12:45

Chiefs will do Pirates a favour & beat dem twice to qualify 4 d final. Mayb den dey will realize dat Krol is nt deir man @ all.

Wonder: 2010-09-10 12:45

I'm coming to the stadium to watch you and your team mates boy, not those other cows wearing bronze and black. do your thing....!!!!!!

OBG: 2010-09-10 12:46

Mayambela is weak. The most dangerous player at Pirates is Jali.

OBG: 2010-09-10 12:49

Wonder - Your useless yellow team failed to do their thing now you have no choice, but to support other teams.

All psl trophies : 2010-09-10 12:49

Is sunkak the richest team in SA??? Stop misleading these illtrte kop fans with ur genuine lie Queen!

Wonder: 2010-09-10 12:52

I'm a soccer supporter first and foremost and Sundowns supporter next. my point is that, just because sundowns is out doesn't mean i will not follow this competition, and yes, i will be supporting Pirates at the stadium, even though i was invited by a ch!mps supporting uncle of mine.


Shapa Bakaniya Shapa, don't disappoint gents, please..!!

maree: 2010-09-10 12:53

mayambela,teko,jali,klate,mabena,mabalane,chansa.......etc still they are going to loss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3=0 win chiefs we will see. ka-nte where is tivani?

22ka : 2010-09-10 12:56

Bhwahahahahahahaha! A player to watch from the bench??? Is Tebza smoking sumting very strong? We all know Mayambela will be shining the bench. He is a brillient player thou bt Krol does nt like skillful players he likes horses(Tlou & Klaje)... Shapa Musona Shapa.

Katlego : 2010-09-10 13:10

I wonder is Moloi has correctly been quoted. How can Mayambela make him eat humble pie wen he hasn't started an official game. Is two Charity performances a success at Pirates? This is not funny and I can bet my last cent, Mayambela won't play tomorrow.

Wonder: 2010-09-10 13:42

KING: 2010-09-10 13:27

Hehehehe, Ch!mps supporters have no shame really, lying in public is what they do best. even the "assumed degrees" can't help him to spell, eish these guys are funny!!

Ole(The Guru): 2010-09-10 13:47

Manyambela was a bench warmer at Celtic and he is going to rot on the bench@Pirates.

goshaba!: 2010-09-10 13:49

All Psl Trophies: King parents are idiots hence why he is such an idiot too

Madluphuthu: 2010-09-10 13:59

I wish he could have arrived at Pirates during the time of Tso Vilakazi, Gift Leremi, Duku Duku and Steve Lekoelea. Is Duku Duku no longer playing for Pirates?

King Plz never venture into another kind of business except de one you r currently doing,which is taxi driving.

These ppl didn't let go of de sponsor,actually it's a sponsor dat let go of them.

Champ "Superbrand": 2010-09-10 15:21

Here are the special players who will destroy Zim zim Bulawayo Kaizer Chimps:

Andile Jali - unbelievable work rate, Chips midfield will be compltely neutralised. Even with Madala Nengo and Skobo Yeye combination.
Teko Modise - the chosen one, They will just have to illegally take the ball from him by kicking him, because no one in the Zim kaizer chick camp can mark him.
Isaac chansa - on form, killer shot, Ayeye Khune Majiyivane the holiday is over.
Dane KLaite - Hard working
Tlou Segolela - The chimps wont cope with the speed
Msowoya - good finisher of the ball
Otorogu - Chimps wont cope with his power.
Lekgwathi - Uyazenzela kuma Kaizer Cheats.

Champ "Superbrand": 2010-09-10 15:27

We can meet chimps anyday, we dont need five days. We met them in the charity, they needed penalties. After that they struggled to beat a useless Celtic team that did not even have one shot at goal the entire match and then went on to win 2-0 against Arrows with the help of the match officials and only managed a draw against M-united. Thats is not form. Come Saturday, they Chimps will be badly exposed.

Superbrand: 2010-09-10 15:21 [ Report ]

Superbrand, You want both dangerous Otorogu and Msowowa to play? Then you must remove one of the 5 midfielders in your above list. So tell who must go to the bench?

davis : 2010-09-10 17:29

yes

Great-1: 2010-09-10 18:04
