While many believe the game is for the fans and wonder why the club cannot heed the call to field the Witbank-born player, some believe the club is killing the Bafana Bafana international.

“Percy Tau should go back to Club Brugge, ayikho leh.”

@Sghiva said:

“One day we must talk about how some Mzansi Twitter influencers cost Percy Tau at Brighton with reckless comments against his team. They know themselves behaving like kids on Brighton's Twitter account, turning his teammates against him.”

@OupaBaloyi7 said:

“Percy Tau should join his African brothers at Crystal Palace. Brighton is not for him. Even when he is given a nod, he is not passed the ball.”

@Zwely10111 said:

“Percy Tau must come back home and leave that useless team.”

“Percy Tau's move to Brighton was suicidal, he doesn't fit there. It's the same as Affonso at Sundowns.”

Briefly News recently reported that ‘The Lion King’ was Bafana’s saviour when they recently took part in a 2022 Africa Cup of Nations Qualifier match and drew one all against Ghana.

It could have been far worse if not for Tau and some poor defence from Ghana, otherwise South Africa would have failed to capitalise on an early goal.

Bafana fans were furious with Thapelo Morena for missing a vital goal opportunity in the first five minutes. Bafana lost Andile Jali in the first half after taking a knock, then he was replaced by Ben Motshwari.
