Chiefs target accused of having bad a attitude

Baroka FC coach Wedson Nyirenda has complained about the behaviour of some of his players including Zimbabwean international Talent Chawapiwa.


Chawapiwa, who is linked with a move to Kaizer Chiefs, was pulled off the field in the 63rd minute during last Saturday’s clash against Orlando Pirates.

The winger refused to shake Nyirenda’s hand as he left the field.

“I don’t like that, I won’t hide it to you, I don’t like it, I hate it a lot. I fired a player from the Zambia national team because of exactly the same thing and I am not going to tolerate it here because I am the same Wedson.

“I am here to instil discipline in this team and I will do that. He has not done anything so why should I keep him in the team? He cannot mark, he cannot score, he cannot create a goal so somebody else has to be introduced and that somebody delivered for us,” said Nyirenda after the game.

The former Kaizer Chiefs striker added that Chawapiwa was not the only players in his squad behaving badly.

“We have few elements in the team who think they are bigger than this club. I for one I am not a coach who will allow that, no player is indispensable. A bigger player is bigger by what he does, but if you are not doing anything then you are not a big player.”
