We analyse the opposition thoroughly and try to make them as much of an open book as possible for our players before finding the right solutions.

More quotes by Manqoba Mngqithi

There are people who always find a way to speak negatively about a person.

The Chiefs one never even reached the stage of (negotiating) terms because someone blocked it.

From that point onwards, we gave it our best shot, even those we did not win. I still believe we deserved to win with good matches (performances, in the games we lost).

That starts with learning the players’ names rather than referring to them by numbers, as though they are cattle.

I always try to show respect to our opponents.
