    WHAT HAPPENED?

    Kaizer Chiefs appointed Nasreddine Nabi as their coach before the start of the 2024/25 season with the Tunisian tasked to reclaim the winning mentality in his squad.

    The Soweto giants have won two Premier Soccer League matches while losing one to Mamelodi Sundowns but their performances have been promising.

    They have also reached the quarter-finals of the Carling Knockout but Nabi feels they are yet to get to the level he wants his men to be at.

    WHAT NABI SAID

    "We are happy that the fans are happy with the results, but we are still far away from where we want to be," said Nabi in a post-match conference.

    "We are in a period of building, and it will take a lot of time, but even in that period of building, we need to get the results to keep the club going forward.

    "We are aware of the fact that in the future it might happen that we go through difficult moments, but we know our strategy and how we want our team to play, and we hope the support will still be there," the Tunisian added.

    "This season is a period of transition from one step to another step.

    "There will be difficult steps, but we take one game at a time, and we will do everything to make the supporters happy and get a positive result in every game we play."

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    So far, Chiefs have an opportunity to end the season with a treble although it looks like a very difficult task.

    They are still in contention for the PSL title, Carling Knockout and the Nedbank Cup.

    But Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates have shown serious intentions to win the league crown although the Buccaneers are out of the Carling Knockout.

    WHAT NEXT FOR CHIEFS?

    The Soweto giants will be back in Polokwane where they are up against SuperSport United to revive their league campaign.

    That match at Peter Mokaba Stadium comes seven days after they beat the same side 4-0 in the Carling Knockout Last-16.
