Bafana Bafana boss Hugo Broos has revealed that he intents to have a meeting with Kaizer Chiefs head coach Molefi Ntseki, following the Belgians words regarding the selection of Chiefs players in the national team.
Broos ticked off the Khosi Nation when he stated no player in Ntseki's team deserved a call-up to the final Bafana squad for friendlies against Namibia and DR Congo.
The Bafana coach insists his words were misinterpreted and wants to clear the air with Ntseki two weeks after the international break as he plans to return home for a short visit.
Here's how the readers responded to the "Broos reveals plan to meet Ntseki over Chiefs 'commotion'" story:
"Let him win something with his preferred players of performing teams, Chiefs players cannot even trap ball.
"And I really feel pity for Bafana because just like Chiefs, it doesn't have continuity with players especially experienced ones. You look to all countries teams both continentally and internationally, you will find at least two to three players played in the last tournament, but in our Bafana we don't have even a single one.
"Next time it could be new coach. And I wonder how will it win anything without continuity. Last time it failed to win just a regional tournament," says matemane.
"South African football people need to start being honest with themselves. Also, not be scared of the truth. Coach Broos told no lie.
"There is no improvement from Kaizer Chiefs. Those players still struggle to trap and pass the ball. horrible decision making. They should be taking Coach Broos' remarks as constructive criticism and go improve," says Scaramanga.
"Broos needs to use tact when dealing with South African journalists, they are sensationalists. To them it's all about clicks. He also need to have a sit down with South African coaches so that he can share with them what he wants from players," says sizweking.
"Every international window Broos fights with an emotional interests. Some say its a Sundowns team and prayed for it to not qualify for AFCON. But the real truth is that Broos has learnt a lot about SA football," says lombosngoape.
"Be careful how say things in the media... don't be reckless with your mouth.
"Ntseki actually handled the situation very well. Now you want to clear things up because you know you had verbal Diarrhea there and now you have to clean up," says Mokaubere.
"If they don't deserve to be there, they don't deserve to be there. At the moment, Ntseki is setting them up to play like a small team against everyone in the first half, he only goes for it in the second, so no, the players don't deserve to be called up.
"Not a single one of them unfortunately. I've been a Chiefs fan since the 80s, yeah, I'm that old. The current Chiefs team is unrecognizable. They play on the backfoot, while we used to play on the attack from the first minute every game, it didn't matter who we faced," says mpahlani.
"Yes in sports you have to be diplomatic, there are players in the other teams, why not name other teams in the PSL why target Chiefs," says rmaseko1.

The "Iron Duke" explained that he was impressed by Riveiro attitude and his silent but hardworking nature.
Here's how the readers reacted to the "WATCH: Khoza full of praise for hard-working Riveiro" story:
"I'm just curious how Pirates will fare this season competing in some demanding tournaments and congested fixtures," says makhause(2).
"A very good coach and a sober professional indeed. SA coaches can learn a lot from this guy, and this is probably why, they're saying 'Pirates and Chiefs are too big for South African coaches', unlike other clubs I cannot mention," says Danito 4 Life.
"We love the coach, Pirates look like they could challenge the well-oiled yellow machine," says Zebra to hell.
"What I'm beginning to like about this coach is that he doesn't talk too much unlike their Phefeni neighbors. He's just chilled, doing his job quietly, he doesn't abuse airtime.
"He doesn't sound like he's entitled to win matches. He doesn't use a lot of modal verbs in his speech "could've" "shauld've" like neighbors," says His Majesty Yellow PSL Beast.
