Mbesuma: I'll add value

Collins Mbesuma: I'll add value to Orlando Pirates

Posted: 16 August 2012 Time: 12:15 pm

Orlando Pirates new striker Collins Mbesuma firmly believes he will add value at the club rather than just add to the numbers.

'Ntofontofo' has penned a three-year with the Buccaneers, in a move that took many by surprise, and he says he is raring to go. 

"It is not going to be easy because Pirates have good strikers, but I will do my best," Mbesuma says.

The former Kaizer Chiefs, Mamelodi Sundowns and Moroka Swallows forward says his move from Golden Arrows to the back-to-back treble champs was motivated by the desire to compete with the best strikers.

"I think I need competition and I know Pirates is a big team so I just want to compete," he affirms.

Meanwhile, Bucs coach Augusto Palacios says the Zambian striker is the last addition to his squad, which now numbers 32, including Mbesuma.

"This is the last player coming to Orlando Pirates to reinforce the squad for the PSL and Africa. We take this very seriously," Palacios says.

Palacios has not made up his mind whether Mbesuma will face SuperSport United on Sunday in the first leg of the MTN8 semi-finals.

"It is going to be easy because Pirates have no good strikers, I will out-do the rest," Mbesuma says.

I really do hope that you will add value but to be totally honest, I think that your signing is completely redundant and useless

No one can question his scoring abilities and that is what a striker do.

Only time will judge him but at Pirates we run the show, if he is not coming to the party we will boooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee him until his contract is terminated, we dont praise mediocrity at Bucs.

Mbesuma is an under-performing luckiest player I have ever seen

He was last hot in 2004/5 and teams are still living under tht spark

FACT: Gorillas will forever live under KC's shadow

.............................................................................................................................................................Mr. Hillarious, which Africa are you talking about here? Ain't this what your black team said when they acquired another 42yr old last season, the one who left recently and exposed you for calling your palyers Gorillas?Your team never get passed the 2nd round of the 1st game, as have been the case over the last two consecutive attempts.Mr.Hillarious, your fluke wins in the PSL are all because of the blind referees, the shenanigans by the toothless mafia(once arrested for frauding SARS), and also the incompetent clubs like Arrows.That's where you're only going to win, and forget about Africa.Real clubs win there, the likes of TP Mazembe.
