Kaizer Chiefs interim coach Cavin Johnson will take charge of his first game at the club against Golden Arrows this weekend, with concerns surround his most recent domestic results as coach.
Amakhosi go on the round to take on a tricky Arrows outfit at the Mpumalanga Stadium in Hammarsdale, with Johnson under pressure to hit the ground running.
What could be of worry for Chiefs fans is Johnson's results in domestic football over his last 13 matches as a coach, going winless with both AmaZulu and Black Leopards.
Johnson only managed one win in his last 12 at Usuthu, drawing one and losing four at Black Leopards in January 2020.
Here's how the readers reacted to the "From bad to worse: Johnson's harrowing concerns at Chiefs" story:
"Mabhuti Khanyeza, do the right thing and welcome this Cavin guy well, give him a baptism of fire please. I want to see something," says Zam d king buccaneer.
"Never judge someone until you see what he brings to the team, who knows, maybe he'll surprise many. When Riverio arrived at Bucs, many people were telling us about his track record and that he hasn't won a trophy but look at him now, he has won 3 trophies in a row. Up the Bucs," says morewasn.
"Cavin, it is your time to shine in the media because you'll be given more coverage hey! So enjoy my man, you're in the mix now," says Armour.
"Wisdom of ages should serve him well, he worked with Pitso, so he knows a thing or two about modern football tactics. Naturena facility as a whole is a plus to him in terms of resources.
"I believe that he is going to pull it together this time," says Jantjies.
"In short, we just put another failure in charge?" says Legend CRM083.
"Exactly, no lies detected there khosi," replies Zam d king buccaneer.
"There's too many big mouthed people out there. Cavin has not coached a team with resources before, now he has a chance, if he gets management support unlike coach Steve did. But he has to demand what he wants and not waste time being nice to people wasting his time.
"He is very good, plays good football too. We are good with him," says khothakhosi.
"Another 'recipe for disaster', is Benni still happy at Man U?" asks Mokaubere.

Sticking with Amakhosi, the Glamour Boys have completed the signing of former SuperSport United defender Luke Fleurs.
Fleurs, who has been assessed by Chiefs for several weeks now, put pen to paper on a two-year contract, with the option of a third year.
The 23-year-old is pleased to sign with the club and says he wants to help them win silverware. Luckily for Fleurs, he's settled into the environment and should be available for selection sooner rather than later.
Here's how the readers reacted to the "Done Deal | Chiefs confirm new signing" story:
"Well done. Luke is a good player. Chest pains are starting to hurt many people who claim to be football followers. Forever the biggest in SA," says user908858.
"Family business signing players before they get their coach. Then coach comes and finds Naturena full of cows he does not need. Struggle continues..." says His Majesty Yellow PSL Pitbull.
"Another desperate move by the desperados," says Zebra Butcher.
"From a regular at SuperSport to a trialist, really?" says 999@MKM.
"You can't be talking about silverware at Chiefs, unless you're drunk or you just want to milk their money," says Saavedra.
"The trophy cabinet is full of Mainstay and rusty trophies which they brag about every time and claim they're the cup kings!" says Armour.
"Winning silverware, did I hear him correctly? He is toying with Chiefs fans feelings," says Zam d king buccaneer.
"They tell them to say 'I came to Chiefs to win trophies'. It's part of their contract," replies Saavedra.
"Age is still on his side if Chiefs can get their act together. The problem with Chiefs isn't the players, but coaches who can inspire players into right actions," says matemane.
"You're lying, the problem is with management's favoritism with certain players. Ask Cardoso. They come to training under the influence of alcohol and make the starting eleven on match day.
"Some are earning more money sitting on the bench, that's why Njabulo Blom left the club for the USA," says ngwanamoshate.70.
"Kaizer Junior has done really well this season, in terms of player acquisition. The only blunder, which was deadly, was on the coaching part. His good job was undone by that emotional decision. Welcome Khosi!" says siyaz.
"Welcome to the Amakhosi, Luke!! You deserve to be there, that is for sure. No doubt that once you get your chance, you will use it. All the best man, it is time for you to get back into the national team set-up.
"You have the talent, show the appetite to play overseas soon. It is time the talented younger players go overseas," says khothakhosi.
"He's not make sure this one. Chiefs are chasing Trophyless LA Decima and are disjointed. What you say Luke?" says INBOX VAT ALLES.
