And asked for the reasons behind the decision, the Belgian mentor said Chiefs are still as average as last season.

He suspects, though, that it could be because they have signed new players who are yet to adapt to life at Naturena.

KAIZER CHIEFS DON’T HAVE GOOD ENOUGH PLAYERS, SAYS HUGO BROOS

“At the moment, Kaizer Chiefs is still Kaizer Chiefs of last year. They have a lot of new players and maybe that is the reason why they don’t achieve what they need to achieve,” said Broos.

“They are still many points behind Sundowns, and I said it last year, for any competition it’s important that the top teams are at the top of the log.

“Ok, Pirates won yesterday. So, there is only five points difference with Sundowns, with Kaizer Chiefs it’s eight points, I think; this is too much. Only five games and you are already eight points behind the number one. It’s not a little team that is number one.”

“Chiefs have to improve. I saw the game last Saturday, I was at the Chiefs’ game. I’m very sorry but at the moment, there is no player who deserves to be in the Bafana Bafana,” concluded Broos.
