Kaizer Chiefs football manager Bobby Motaung says the club’s leadership will make a decision on where they need to beef up to help Arthur Zwane after reviewing their “disappointing season”.
Amakhosi currently sit in fourth place four points behind third-placed SuperSport United, who they face on Saturday, and six behind Soweto rivals Orlando Pirates in second sot.
Last weekend, they were eliminated from the Nedbank Cup by the Buccaneers, ending their last hopes of lifting a trophy in Zwane’s debut campaign on the sidelines.
As the club’s trophy drought will continues to over eight years, Bobby Motaung insisted they will do a proper review after the end of the campaign.
“Obviously we’ll be doing a review in terms of the support, we need to support them. We never put them there to fail,” he told TimesLIVE.
“We put them there to develop them and and help them grow, and when we do our review at the end of the season, we will see where we need to beef up and where we need to support.
“Like I said, we are also learning from the challenges that happened this season and we are going to make sure we assist and add more value to the staff and to the players.”
Motaung also insisted that Rome wasn’t built in one day and fans need to be patient as the club is going through a rebuilding phase.
“When we started the season, we knew it was not going to be smooth, it was not going to easy,” he added.
“We had just started with a young coach, with a young technical staff and everything has been fresh but we knew that it was going to be tough.
“It was going to be a blessing to win the MTN8, or to win the Nedbank Cup or be in the CAF Champions League.
“But you must remember when you build a house from scratch, when you’re rebuilding, it’s not an overnight success; it is a journey.
“If you look at how Sundowns is winning and how other teams are winning, it’s about consistency. They never revamp their team, they just adding on and adding on. Ours is more about the experience of the young players.
“We are going to next season definitely beef up [the squad] and look at where the challenges were and work on it. Football is a journey. It is not an overnight thing or one-day thing, it is a process and we are on that journey.
“Fifty-three years of success of Kaizer Chiefs it’s an experience that we have had and we know where we are going. We are aware that it’ has been’s a disappointing season, but just a rebuilding season. The experience the coaches gathered, the players, the young players are gaining, will help us going forward.”
