Bosso hungry for more goals

The Highlanders side seems hungry to score, and anyone playing them should know that no matter how many goals you fire past Arial Sibanda, those boys are prepared to return the favour.

That is the mentality and approach that has come with the Zambian coach at Highlanders and you can see that players now believe in themselves. And by the time they hit a hard surface and poor form, like any other team in the world, they would have gone far in as far as the league race is concerned.

Even the club fans know that and they spent the better part of the week exchanging notes on the social network, responding to a statement that read as follows: "Our coach has shown great character in his team rotation and balancing flair with results. He rewards players based on effort put at training and we have seen him use two goalkeepers in four matches. Now we are going to Harare this Saturday to face a more determined and confusing Black Mambas which thrives on fluke like Newcastle United and now how are we supposed to handle this gentlemen/ladies of the higher levels? Open fire to try and harvest goals with an unchanged side or use untested players to test our functional depth or caution and hit them on counter attack? Let's hear the views from our traditional coaches and their line-ups. Soweto coaches are leading so far with Empankweni second and Western wing a distant third in picking the teams."

Amos Zingwe Simba responded saying an unchanged side from the Platinum game should face Mambas this afternoon.

Busani Bigboy Ngwenya said what he liked about the coach was that he picked players on merit, perhaps because he is a foreigner and does not know who stays in which suburb, he only considers performance.

Bekezela Mguni said, "There is no game that we will approach with caution. Every team that comes our way has to be cautious, not us. So we are going out to attack because that is our usual game".

Nkululeko Ncube weighed in saying, "Let's attack and attack, their defence will make mistakes. We played mid week, so I guess nothing much changed at training. So he (coach) has to stick to the Platinum team.

To the police side, you ought to be afraid and be very afraid."

Is this the handwriting or its forgery?
