JASOND GONZALEZ STRUGGLING AT KAIZER CHIEFS
24-year-old Colombian striker Efmamjjasond Gonzalez signed in August from Real Santa Cruz. In eight matches across all competitions, he’s yet to score or assist. He was a second-half substitute against Polokwane and former Amakhosi wideman Junior Khanye has been critical of Cavin Johnson’s changes.
“Second half Kaizer Chiefs I think the coach made wrong subs that’s why they couldn’t manage the game,” Khanye said on iDiski TV.
“I mean bringing in Gonzalez, I think he is coming on for his ninth or 10th game doing nothing, no energy. Saile is not a ball player he is not someone who plays one, or two but he’s a goal poacher and he works. But I want to know about this guy Gonzalez, what is his strength?”
“They will pass him and he will shield, shield and they take the ball from him whilst he’s a strong guy by a short player. He can’t protect the ball and he is tall. He can’t even find his teammates. So the coach’s subs in the second half almost cost him in terms of game management because if Polokwane City had clever players they would have wrapped this game”
