The Buccaneers have defied expectations this season by maintaining their dominant form despite the departures of marquee stars Relebohile Mofokeng and Patrick Maswanganyi. Many feared the Soweto club would struggle to replace such influential figures, but head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou has earned significant plaudits for his seamless integration of new talent.

The per 90 stats in football measure a player's output scaled to a full 90-minute match, allowing fair comparisons between players with different playing times and allowing us to see who are the genuine best performing players in the league this season so far. The format works by taking a player's total for any metric (eg: goals, tackles, passes, etc) and divides it by their total minutes played, then multiplies by 90 so a regular substitute who plays 15-to-20 minutes a week can be accurately compared to the impact of a starter who plays the full match every week.

The treble-winning striker has received a glowing endorsement from former Mamelodi Sundowns star Sandile Ndlovu, who believes the forward is destined to be the Betway Premiership top goalscorer this season. The former Richards Bay man has hit the ground running with the Buccaneers, showing the clinical edge required to thrive at a massive club.

Bucs legend Steve Lekoelea has voiced serious concerns regarding the head coach's tactical approach early in the season. Despite a strong start to the campaign, the former Buccaneers playmaker believes the current policy of frequent squad rotation is a gamble that could eventually cost the Soweto giants dearly.
