My Dream Team: Thamsanqa Tibe

In this edition of My Dream Team, former Dynamos, and Black Leopards star Thamsanqa Tibe reveals the 10 best players he played alongside in his football career.

Tibe also mentions Johnny Fereira as the best coach to have coached him.

Formation

"4-4-2. It allows you to defend and attack properly. It always gives you more numbers up front."

Goalkeeper

"In goals, I prefer Swadick Sanudi, he came from Malawi. I played with him at Dynamos. He wouldn't let anything in."

Defenders

"Dan Semake will be my right-back. That guy knew football, he could defend and attack with ease.

"Thulani Ntshingila will be my left-back, he was similar to Dan Semake and he had pace. He was also a good crosser of the ball.

"In the centre-back position I will put the late Nando Matola, now that's a top defender. A hard tackler who could read the game very well.

"I will pair him with Thabo Mokgalushi. He was a hard worker of note. A man-marker."

Midfielders

"In the middle I will put Hlompho Kekana and Christopher Netshidzhive. Kekane will do all the dirty work for Netshidzhive.

"Netshidzhive was very good with one-twos and through balls. Both of them make the team tick. He was also a dead ball specialist.

"Vusi Dlamini is my right-winger. Very good in one-on-ones, he could easily eliminate defenders. 

"On the left, it's Gerald Modabi, very good tactically and play simple football. His intelligence is on another level."

Strikers

"I will put myself in, I was good with off-the-ball runs. And scoring goals is my thing. I'm also a good passer of the ball.

"Mulondo Shikhwivhilu will partner with me upfront. Now that's a finisher. He was good with both his feet and head."

Coach

"This team needs somebody who is tactical, not Jacob Sakala who is full of jokes.

"So I will put Johnny Ferreira. He is very good tactically."
