Kaizer Chiefs legend William Shongwe believes the Amakhosi’s problems are many despite people focusing solely on their goalkeeping department.
The former Amakhosi goalkeeper has opened up on the perceived goalkeeping crisis at the Glamour Boys while insisting that this is the healthiest department at Naturena.
Despite the season just being six games in, Stuart Baxter has already used all four of his Kaizer Chiefs first team goalkeepers leaving many fans worried about the lack of stability in goal.
Shongwe however believes the actual problem lies with the Amakhosi attackers who aren’t taking their chances.
Kaizer Chiefs legend slams Amakhosi attacking force
“People say the goalkeepers have done badly, but has the team done enough to score goals? You can’t blame it on the goalkeepers.” the former Kaizer Chiefs goalkeeper told SoccerLaduma.
” It feels a little bit unfair to me that goalkeepers are taking the flak for the team’s poor form, while you can see that there are bigger problems upfront. There’s bigger problems in defence. They are opening up too much for the opposition to test the goalkeeper. Akpeyi was incredible (against Gallants) and made two brilliant saves which any other goalkeeper may have conceded.
“Kaizer Chiefs are poor everywhere. They are not testing the opposition enough, they are not creating enough, they are not defending well. The problems are not in one department. I would have a big problem if there would be a change after such a brilliant display by Akpeyi. If there are medical issues or his injured, I would understand. But at the moment I think his confidence is very high and it’s something that they can build on.”
Kaizer Chiefs are next in action on Saturday afternoon when they visit Benni McCarthy’s AmaZulu in a mouthwatering DStv Premiership clash. Kick-off is scheduled for 15:30.
