    So Hotto agent is very clever, earns more than Saleng

    So Hotto agent is very clever earns more than Saleng, remember that they bought Saleng from NFD and Hotto come from Bidvest while he was their main player and expensive, so Saleng can't cry now until his contract is left with one year to re-negotiate new contract. If both parties fail to reach agreement then give him his clearance. - Warren Cavali

    I think Khoza should have done something better

    Yes we understand that he has a contract that says he must be paid that amount but I think Khoza should have done something better just to make the boy feels happy, this young man has contributed a lot to pirates success while there is a player who is not even playing at pirates but earning more that Saleng. Khoza is the boss, he can change everything. I am disappointed - Mungadi Mmboniseni Richard

    Saleng is one of the best players in the league

    The are players in the PSL who are reportedly getting a million rands and above. Saleng is one of the best players in the league, he deserves to be amongst the highest earners. Fine if Pirates can't give him what he wants, they must release him from his contract, don't hold the boy hostage. Football is a short career - Thando Makaula

    His advisors are killing his career

    I am quite sure the club is paying him what is in his contract, which he entered into when he signed for the club. And I am sure it was a market related wage. His advisors are killing his career if they are not discouraging him from sulking because of what other players are earning. He is harming his chances of being a marketable player. Managers are not keen on players - Colon Le Roux

    He is jealous because the other players negotiated better contracts

    It's the contract he signed, if he felt he was worth R500 000 he should negotiate a better contract term. Like clauses if he doesn't perform or gets hurt he doesn't get paid but if he performs he gets the rewards. Now he is jealous because the other players negotiated better contracts? - Sibusiso Skhura Gule

    Honour the current contract

    Monapule Saleng has been ill-advised. You can't sign a contract and then boom.... in the middle of it you demand an increase. That's madness. The logical thing for him to do would've been to honour the current contract and then negotiate an improved deal at the end of it. That's how it works - Bongani Mgubela

    Hotto has no talent, he earns more than Mofokeng

    Hotto has no talent, he earns more than Mofokeng, Mabasa, Saleng, Sesane, Ndah Pirates must stop comparing themselves to Sundowns if they can't protect their key players - Sandra Michell
