Thembinkosi Lorch's good performances are giving former Kaizer Chiefs star Robson Muchichwa sleepless nights.
The Orlando Pirates' star's influence in the Buccaneer's 1-0 win over Sekhukhune United on Tuesday saw him being crowned Man of The Match for the third time since his return to action.

Muchichwa tipped the talented midfielder to be the player to watch at FNB Stadium when they face Amakhosi in the Soweto Derby on Saturday.
"For me, Lorch he is the player to watch, his form and confidence are up there," Muchichwa tells KickOff.
"He is going onto this game with more confidence and composure. Although other players might cause havoc for Chiefs, he is the player to watch.
"Being the man of the match three times can only mean you are doing well.
"Kaizer Chiefs they will need to be themselves and play their type of football.
"Focusing on one player that's not the Kaizer Chiefs way of playing football.
"The problem with Chiefs is that most of their players have lost confidence. Because of not doing well now, there's more pressure.
"If I was the Chiefs coach, I would focus on the psychological part instead of training.
"It's going to be tough for the Chiefs players who are showing no confidence to come up against a player that is on top form like Lorch.
"People might question some of Lorch's man of the matches, but for me he didn't choose himself. For me, the boy is doing well.
"This game is going to be tough though, I think it might end in a draw.
"That said though, I think in terms of form Pirates have a slight advantage over Chiefs.
"Pirates they have got a good shape compared to Chiefs."
