Collins Mbesuma Joins Sekhukhune United as Strikers Coach

Former Kaizer Chiefs player, Collins Mbesuma, has been appointed as the new strikers coach for Sekhukhune United. Mbesuma’s successful career as a striker has seen him play for several teams including Portsmouth, Mamelodi Sundowns, and Orlando Pirates. As a coach, he aims to train a new generation of strikers to achieve success on the field.

Mbesuma’s Role at Sekhukhune United

Sekhukhune United is set to participate in five competitions this season, making Mbesuma’s role critical to the team’s performance. The appointment of Mbesuma as the new strikers coach comes amidst concerns over the decline in goals scored in the Premier Soccer League (PSL).

Addressing the Goal Drought in the PSL

Last season’s top goal-scorer award in the PSL was shared by Peter Shalulile and Khanyisa Mayo, who each scored 12 goals. This lackluster performance has led to calls for PSL teams to employ a striker or attacking coach to address the issue.

Legendary former Kaizer Chiefs striker Pollen Ndlanya is among those who believe that a dedicated attacking coach could help reverse this trend. He cites the example of Benni McCarthy, who was brought on board at Manchester United to bolster their strike-force.

The Benefits of Experienced Professionals in Coaching Positions

The addition of experienced professionals like Mbesuma into coaching positions not only benefits the individual players and the team as a whole but also contributes to the growth of the sport in the region. The expertise and insights that these seasoned players can offer are invaluable resources for young, aspiring athletes looking to make their mark on the field.

Embracing Change and Learning from the Past

As the PSL continues to evolve, it is crucial that clubs, coaches, and management stay open to new strategies and techniques to improve their teams’ performance. By embracing change and learning from the past, the league can create a brighter future for both its players and its fans.

The appointment of Collins Mbesuma as the new strikers coach for Sekhukhune United may signify a turning point for the league. As more teams follow suit and bring on specialized coaches to work with their strikers, there is hope that the PSL will see a resurgence in goal-scoring prowess and provide a more thrilling experience for supporters. The addition of Mbesuma to their coaching staff may prove to be a game-changing decision for Sekhukhune United, one that reinvigorates their attack and propels them to success in the coming season.
