Arthur Zwane has preached a long-term vision for the side and surely deserves the continued backing of Amakhosi management, as Chiefs’ problems hardly started with him.

The most popular side in the country haven’t won a single Premier Soccer League trophy since 2015, and despite an improved performance against Sundowns on Sunday, they still lost to a rampant Masandawana.
