Swallows coach has Zeca Marques expressed disappointment at his players for
their recent on and off form.
In
their previous three games, the Dube Birds defeated Orlando Pirates, lost to AmaZulu
and won against Sundowns and Marques feels like his players are choosing games.
Swallows coach Zeca Marques has warned players to stop choosing games. |
“What
is currently happening is hard to explain. They have shown against Pirates and
Sundowns that they are capable to win against any team. I feel like they are
choosing matches, underestimating some of the teams and I find it pointless.
They need to start putting in a 100% in every game they play. That is what good
players do,” said Marques.
Swallows
used the numerical advantage after defender Method Mwanjali was shown a red
card by referee Lwandile Mfiki for a tackle on David Mathebula.
The
win lifted Swallows to 10th on the log with 25 points from 21 games.
The 51
year old mentor is worried of what might happen when his side faces Free State
Stars next week Friday. The Portuguese
coach said his team’s on and off displays make his job difficult.
“I
don’t even know how to sum our current performance. I don’t know if we are
improving or not and that makes my job tough, but I believe one can’t become a
bad coach overnight.
Swallows players like Lerato Chabangu and Katlego Mashego have been warned. |
“I am
not sure of what to expect in the next game, but what I told the players is
that they need to motivate themselves, learn from the last matches and try to
be consistent. They need to show a good work ethic, show that they want to
fight for the club,” said Marques.
The
game against Sundowns saw serious changes on the Swallows line up. Rejuvenated
midfielder Lerato Chabangu was handed the captain’s armband after regular
captain Lefa Tsutsulupa was substituted early on in the first half.
