As they stand on the cusp of a rare domestic treble, Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi has given rare insight into to how he managed to navigate through the co-coaching arrangement at the club.
“So, I got used to a culture of very objective and critical debates when it comes to what we want to achieve, how we want the team to train and how we want the team to play.
“But what is more important is the leadership within the group, if in that group you entertain all sorts of petty issues and stupid fights you don’t see the light. But if you always try to inculcate the mentality that everybody is important and everybody's views must be listened to without anyone undermining you, you stand a chance of achieving more.
“The truth of the matter is it is a very healthy set-up. I watched Brazil at the World Cup in 2014 and the technical team had their own bus. That says something that other countries have realised [how] important it is to have a big technical team with brains that are focusing in one direction.
