“But you’re right [it was a short stint], I think inside the vision of looking to win a trophy we need to win the league may be, there are principles and alignment that should be short-term, mid-term and long-term plans,” Pitso Mosimane told iDiskiTimes.
“There must be a way to be aligned in knowing the short-term and mid-term plans, that within that space we should be able to say yes, this is the plan, this is achievable quickly and there’s no plan that’s perfect, even when you win a tournament, there are headaches.
“But once we’re inside the same vision. I think there was a lack of alignment from my thinking and what [Al Wahda] wants. In what the team has been doing for the last 13 years where they haven’t won the league.” Pitso Mosimane concluded.
