Dolly is expected to star and play a huge role as they meet Golden Arrows away this weekend in their 10^th DStv Premiership match of the season.

Chiefs announced technical team changes and sacked coach Molefi Ntseki who is succeeded by Dolly’s homeboy, Cavin Johnson as interim mentor.

Heading to KwaZulu-Natal, Dolly admits it’s been a tough week for the Naturena-based Chiefs but they cannot dwell on the past in the midst of the changes.

CHIEFS STAR CAN’T DWELL ON THE PAST DESPITE CHANGES

Dolly and his Chiefs teammates suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of AmaZulu in the Carling Knockout Cup Last 16 clash last Saturday.

“It has been a tough week for the club. Obviously, we are disappointed from our last game and not qualifying for the next round of the Carling Cup, but I think this is an important weekend for us,” says Dolly per Phakaaathi.

“We have to come back and not dwell on the past. If we can win this weekend we can change our mindset and start winning.”

Fresh from a lengthy spell on the sidelines owing to an injury, the former Mamelodi Sundowns winger, Dolly will look to regain his best form and lead Chiefs to winning ways.

Dolly came off the bench in the loss to Cape Town City in the league before making his first start this term when they lost to Usuthu at FNB Stadium.
