Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane was left disappointed over the weekend after his side dropped points against Marumo Gallants in a 1-1 draw. 

Edmilson Dove was dispossessed by Ranga Chivaviro while attempting to play from the back to gift the DStv Prem basement dwellers an equaliser less than 10 minutes before half-time. 

Mangethe expressed his dismay at his troops failing to bury clear cut chances and the playing the ball in dangerous areas at the back. 

Here's how the readers reacted to Zwane's comments in the "Zwane bemoans yet another Chiefs defensive error" story: 

"We do not have goal scorers, that is all. Some people keep talking about penalties as if they are not part of the game. It isn't Chiefs that handles the ball or trips opponents. So the comments are unfortunate. All red cards and penalties were in terms of the rules.

"But my problem is how weak our team is. Even our coach believes that it is better to play 11 vs 11! He is the only coach with this kind of thinking, all other coaches see an advantage that helps to pressure the opponent and win games. Kunzima Khosi. The rush rush in the last third a problem," says Khothakhosi.

"Marumo Gallants was supposed to win this game," says maakewitness089. 

"As supporters, the sooner we accept that our team is a very very useless team we have ever seen in the PSL, the better. There is no team work there never, I've been saying this for a very long time now, no combination play, only individual brilliance of players.

"Dolly was off from the word go, Maart always delays passes and is useless with marking, Hlanti must be rested a bit, shift Dove to the left position and bring back Njabulo [Ngcobo], I'm also asking the management of this team to buy at least 7 quality players, re- enforce the technical team, Zwane isn't fit enough please," says Sk wa Le khosi.
