Former Sundowns technical director Mike Ntombela feels that the CBD worked at Sundowns because they were surrounded by players of similar quality.
"Look at the players who were around the CBD at Sundowns, and it's not difficult to see why it worked," Ntombela said. "Before players change teams they need to think carefully before moving, especially because Billiat and Castro were so well taken care of at Sundowns. The technical team worked very hard to ensure that they got the best out of those three guys."
In many ways, Chiefs are still stuck in the past as they still very much depend on members of the league-conquering side of 2014, including George Maluleka, Willard Katsande and Bernard Parker. Both Castro and Billiat have one goal each in 2019 as Amakhosi continue to falter in the Premier Soccer League.If Chiefs still harbour hopes of ending their drought, the"CB without the D" will need to carry the team in the Nedbank Cup going forward after struggling against amateurs Tornado and the Magic FC in the previous rounds.
