Johnson Not Happy With Chiefs Players After Latest Loss

Johnson Not Happy With Chiefs Players After Latest Loss

Kaizer Chiefs interim coach Cavin Johnson was not happy with the performances from a lot of his players after the defeat to Stellenbosch FC.

The Soweto giants suffered their eighth defeat of the DStv Premiership campaign after the 1-0 defeat to Stellies.

Johnson felt the performance was not half as good as the one from the goalless draw against Cape Town City on the weekend.

"Ja for sure (disappointed), I thought the performance we put on tonight was not even half the performance put on Saturday and ja, what can I say? We have to go back, try again, put different players on the pitch and let's see what happens," Johnson told SuperSport after the game.

"But in saying that, ja, we just didn't get it right tonight. Not happy with the performance from a lot of players but we have to fix them up, we have to come back.

"We have now a game on Saturday against Chippa, we have to try our best. We need the points. We need the points more than any other team in the PSL at this present moment. But we need to box clever and we need to play the ball better," he said.

When asked where Chiefs need to improve, he added, "I think the most important attribute is that the players need to be better technically, in a lot of moments they have to play, you know we have to pass the ball better," he said.

"I don't think there's a time where we pass the ball better, we're not looking like we can pass the ball better.

"When we go 1-0 down, yes we have 45 minutes to come back, be the confident that you are, the Kaizer Chiefs that you are and play the proper ball, don't just kick the ball and that for me was very disturbing from my players."
