Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter has said the noise from supporters and the media questioning Njabulo's Ngcobo's absence from the starting XI at the start of 2021-22 does not help the player.
After being grilled in the week about some of his eyebrow-raising selections — especially new signing from Swallows FC Ngcobo's absence — Baxter handed a debut to the 2020-21 PSL defender of the season in Saturday's 4-1 DStv Premiership humbling to Royal AM at FNB Stadium.
" I've been saying all along he's got to get used to his team-mates, he's got to get used to the way we play, he's got to accommodate our build-up play with his own qualities," Baxter said afterwards when asked about Chiefs' new centre-back's debut performance."But the same as every player, I think the screaming at the [coaches] about, 'Push him in, push him in', doesn't help him and doesn't help anybody.
