They are talented and consistent, and they have fighting spirit. We believe they have what it takes to perform on a bigger stage, but it will all depend on how the incoming coach will assess and use them,\u201d he was also quoted by the same newspaper.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the development, former Bullets Captain Chimango Kayira hailed Wanderers for giving the youngsters a chance to prove their worth. \u201cIt\u2019s delightful to hear that Mighty Mukuru Wanderers have promoted seven players from the reserve side to the senior team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReminds me of the debut season of Charles Petro. Timkachita kuda nkhawa kuti koma mwanayu akwanitsa kumaka [we were all doubting him]? But as weeks progressed, he settled down, and he was able to make a 30-meter grass cutting pass straight to the target man, leaving us in awe. Believe in these youngsters. I am so happy with the project. Well done, Manoma. Football wins,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>However, he was quick to predict a very difficult task ahead for the incoming coach, saying it would not be easy to drop regular players for the youngsters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, this should probably be an important bearing for the board when navigating through the process of choosing the coach who will take charge of the Nomads team this season. The new coach must be someone daft enough to tame seasoned campaigners of the team as well as possessing the patience in youngsters,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Under Kalisto Pasuwa, the quadruple winners have been relying heavily on promoted talent from their reserves, with the likes of Hassan Kajoke, Charles Petro, Ernest Petro, Chimwemwe Idana, Patrick Mwaungulu, Stanley Billiat, Clever Mkungula, Frank Willard, Blessings Mpokera, Lanjesi Nkhoma and Yankho Singo all joining the team from the junior team.<\/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.
