He said during his playing era, Chiefs boasted many national team players who helped in delivering the expected results.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI strongly believe when a team of Chiefs\u2019 calibre signs foreign players, they must be national team players. The quality must be high and not just ordinary players who won\u2019t make any impact. That\u2019s what they used to do with us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we came to Chiefs, we were national team players. Mohammed Ouseb was a national team player and we found quality players there such as Doctor [Khumalo] and Thabo Mooki. Chiefs were respected. We need to go back to the same standard because Chiefs is a big team. The local players should be of top quality too, like Jabu Pule [Mahlangu] and others,\u201d Mabedi told sowetanlive.co.za.<\/p>\n<p>He said there was something wrong in the club\u2019s recruitment department and suggested that demoted coach Arthur Zwane did not have the right players. Chiefs demoted Zwane from coach to assistant just after a season but Mabedi said his former teammate needed time.<\/p>\n<p>Zwane\u2019s appointment was greeted with excitement by Chiefs fans at the start of the season but he had to be rescued by police from an angry mob at Royal Bafokeng Stadium in Rustenburg towards the end of the 2022-23 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The fans were unhappy that Zwane only managed to steer Chiefs to fifth place in the DStv Premiership and failed to go beyond the MTN8 and Nedbank Cup semifinals. However, Chiefs stated that the main focus for the 2022-23 season was on rebuilding, according to sowetanlive.co.za.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
