Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef 'destined for disaster' at Kaizer Chiefs after 'losing respect of fans and players' following Sibongiseni Mthethwa & Fiacre Ntwari's incidents - 'They have lost the changing room'

Kaizer Chiefs' winless run in domestic matches extended to five games as Amakhosi fell to Stellenbosch 5-4 on penalties following a goalless draw in both regulation and extra time of the Carling Knockout's Round of 16.

It was also not a good show by the Soweto giants as Fiacre Ntwari refused to be subbed, while Sibongiseni Mthethwa was reluctant to pave the way for Tashreeq Morris.

Since the exit of coach Nasreddine Nabi, Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef have been in charge of the Glamour Boys.

However, according to the former club's tactician, Farouk Khan, the two assistant coaches have failed to stamp their authority, as shown by the two players.

Khan has now predicted the exit of the duo from the Soweto giants. 

“The impression it leaves with the fans, as far as the coach is concerned. Basically, it tells you that the coach has lost the changing room," he told SoccerBeat.
“If this happens with these two players [Ntwari and Ox], what does it tell the other players? That they can also do exactly the same.
“You can’t have a situation where you take some players one way and some go the other way," Khan continued.

"The mere fact that initially Ox refused, he did not want to come off, as a player, when the coach makes a substitution, irrespective of the decision, you have to make sure you walk off the field.
“Ntwari was just like, ‘I am not going off’and at the end of the day, the coaches had to eat humble pie and accept the fact. So, they [coaches] have just lost the respect not only of the fans but of the players as well.
“They have set the precedent now, and once you, as the coaches, know you have lost the changing room, you are destined for disaster moving forward.

"Especially now that the result is negative, everyone will dissect the situation," he concluded. 

The club has promised to solve the Ntwari issue, which might end up having an impact on his career at the club, as well as the other players.

The management should, as well, confirm the new coach at the club to end all the anxieties about who is in charge.
