The problem that has haunted Kaizer Chiefs since 2015 has now been diagnosed by one of their former players.
Amakhosi who have already three league matches this season will next face Mpumalanga-based TS Galaxy FC in Mbombela on Monday.
According to former left-back Themba Seli, though coaches are being changed every season in Naturena, the unfortunate thing is that the players have remained the same.

"TS Galaxy might cause more pain for Chiefs on Monday, remember these small teams they always turn into something else each time they play against Chiefs," Seli tells KickOff.
"They play well these Chiefs players but, the minute they concede a goal it all comes down crushing.
"We don't have the type of players who are able to motivate fellow teammates telling them, 'we can do this'.
"The thing with young boys is you can't throw them into the deep end. That's the biggest problem.
"Every coach that joins Kaizer Chiefs finds youngsters in that team, and he is told to re-build the team around the youngsters. This has been happening since Stuart Baxter left. Hence they've been rebuilding ever since.

"At Chiefs as a coach you don't make decisions on who should be brought in. You are told to work with what you have.
"As a coach it's better if I fail using my own players, not players who failed under previous coaches.
"If you look at Chiefs only the coaches are being changed, the players always remain the same. Players who have been failing for three seasons. That's Chiefs problem."
