Chapman proves last season was no fluke

Bidvest Wits in-form striker Ryan Chapman explains his form

Bidvest Wits in-form striker Ryan Chapman has revealed the reason behind his rich vein of form. 

The former Santos marksman is continuing where he left off during the 2010/11 season, when he scored six goals in eight League starts for the ‘Students'.   Chapman is again on a roll this season having matched his last season statistics with six goals in eight League starts already and just one behind the current Absa Premiership top scorer Katlego Mphela, who is on seven goals.   The former Orlando Pirates youth player helped Wits thump Bucs 3-1 on Saturday evening, but has opted to stick to self-effacing amid talk of his goal scoring prowess.    "I'm doing well because I'm playing regular football… It has helped me in a sense that I have been able to maintain some consistency, because I play on a regular basis. I don't think much has changed about my game, except that I play regularly," he tells KickOff.com.   However, the 24-year-old believes he may maintain the consistency if he doesn't "get ahead" of himself.   "I have been getting a lot of phone calls of late, but I shouldn't get ahead of myself. I must just do my best," Chapman says.

Chapman has got composure in front of goal. I did not watch him in the last season but from the last two matches I believe he can be considered as a suitable second striker for the national squad. I saw some editors article suggesting Grobler to be a replacement for mpela, what a joke. Currently the top goal scorers are Mpela, Chapman and were is Grobler?
