He doesn’t even have confidence: Sirino slammed as he struggles in Chiefs' colours

The Uruguayan has struggled for regular game time and consistent form at Amakhosi this season. His inconsistent performances have drawn mounting criticism from fans and pundits alike. More was expected from him when he arrived at Naturena from Mamelodi Sundowns in August 2024 as a high-profile signing.

Should Bra K assume Chiefs leadership as struggle persists? - 'Change is urgently needed'

As Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef struggle to stabilise the boat, questions have been asked about whether the co-coaches are the right people for the job. Initially, they appeared to be on the right course when the Glamour Boys reached the group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup. However, recent results have been negative, throwing the duo under the spotlight again.

'We have delivered VAR in PSL!' Top official brags he has 'proof of payment'

There have been questions raised about some decisions made in the South African top tier, some of which have cost teams trophies as well as points. SAFA, alongside the Premier Soccer League management, has been working in conjunction with the government to improve the situation of football in the country.

'He was not used!' Kaze explains why Shinga debut delayed

The 25-year-old versatile defender joined the Soweto giants in the off-season transfer window from Portuguese second-tier outfit Alverca to help in strengthening the then Nasreddine Nabi-led Amakhosi. However, he has endured a lengthened spell on the sidelines owing to the technical team's preferences and partly owing to injuries.

Cardoso, Mofokeng & Lilepo win awards

The Soweto giants are having a nightmare as they continue struggling to get results in competitive outings. Despite the massive signings made in the off-season transfer window, the Glamour Boys are almost guaranteed a trophyless 2025/26 season. They are trailing the league leaders by 11 points following the most recent defeat. And, the club's fans are making their feelings clear about the position Amakhosi find themselves in.

Apologetic Kaze asks for patience - 'The bad moments will pass'

The Glamour Boys have been struggling to deliver across all competitions, crashing out of the Nedbank Cup, CAF Confederation Cup, and are now limping in the South African top-flight football.

'Sterile' Chiefs were awful against Richards Bay

The alarm bells are ringing louder than ever at Naturena as Amakhosi's season is spiralling out of control after a dismal 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Natal Rich Boyz on Tuesday evening. And judging by the game metrics, it was their worst, most sterile performance under their current co-coaches' setup, leading to fans calling for Cedric Kaze and Khalil Ben Youssef to leave the club.

The Soweto giants entered this encounter under heavy pressure after back-to-back defeats, and their concerns deepened with a pre-match blow as Inacio Miguel was ruled out injured. Amakhosi fans briefly had something to cheer about with Nkanyiso Shinga making his debut, but that optimism was short-lived as he was forced off injured. In the end, the result only added to their growing frustrations.

Officials to blame? Kaizer Chiefs were denied a legit goal!

Amakhosi fans are frustrated following their team's poor run in the last five outings across all competitions. The Soweto giants are at risk of ending the season trophyless after falling short in the Carling Knockout, Nedbank Cup, and, most recently, CAF Confederation Cup. Their only hope is in the Premier Soccer League, where they are facing stiff competition from Orlando Pirates and defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns.

Ngezana injury saga drags on - 'What do we do, tie him to the bed?'

The former Amakhosi centre-back is in a race against time to recover from a knee injury and be fit for the global football tournament, which will be co-hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. Failure to recover fully would force South Africa’s coach Hugo Broos to rethink his defensive plans ahead of the global showpiece. It would mean searching for a replacement for the player he trusted during the 2025 AFCON finals.

Ex-Al Ahly official blasts Pitso - 'He did not deserve to coach Al Ahly'

Amakhosi’s performance against their old foes has drawn sharp condemnation from a former Maritzburg United coach, who finds nothing positive to take from the display by the 2014/15 Premier Soccer League champions.

The Glamour Boys are enduring their worst run of form this season, having suffered three defeats in a row across all competitions.
