In this week's Friday debate, Soccer Laduma got in touch with a few Kaizer Chiefs supporters to find out if there are any regrets in missing out on midfielder Thabo Cele, who has made a move to Russia.
I think we've really missed out on Thabo Cele because you are talking about a team that's still trying to catch up to other giants in Sundowns and Orlando Pirates. Those two sides have gone all out to try to improve their quality, even after lifting trophies last season. They still tried to have solid transfer windows, so that they can bring something again this season. Chiefs are still playing catch up and a quality player like Thabo Cele would have strengthened that midfield.
At the moment, it seems like Yusuf Maart is the only one playing well alongside Castillo. And you look at the transfer window Chiefs had last season, those players are nowhere to be seen except Maart and Ashley du Preez. A signing like Thabo Cele would definitely be missed by Chiefs. For the fact they missed out on signing him for a second time, it definitely makes things worse because you need depth in the squad.
