Fans blame Chiefs coaching staff for the injuries
Local football fans reacted on social media to blame Chiefs’ coaching staff for the growing injury list at the Soweto giants.
Ignitions Neo Matsimela is pessimistic:
“It is done, it is already done, Chiefs are already out of everything, the Nedbank Cup is just a dream. Nabi, you are a professional plumber and scammer.”
Ripindi Jefferson Magoda is not a fan of Nabi:
“Useless coach who fails to have a strong first eleven strong. Keeps on testing the combination for the whole season.”
Muzi Machiaveli Lubelo says other teams also suffer from injuries:
“Imagine the cry of missing Themba Zwane, Mothobi Mvala, Mudau and Grant Kekana would be. Trust me Mamelodi Sundowns is still winning without them.”

“The problem is their conditioning coach.”
Lindelani 'Lee' Boyabenyathi defended Nabi:
“Nabi is a good coach.”
