"He works very hard on the pitch, he is a winger, natural winger that is able to play out of the wing and into a ten in a 4-3-3 formation if you want your fullbacks to be high and wide but if you also want a winger that will be your isolated wide, you got him and (Siyabonga) Mabena in the wide channels.

"They are very good and Lesiba (William Nku) has also shown some very good signs there. (Thapelo) Maseko has shown signs in that space, but (Arthur) Sales, the striker I think he has got something."

Mngqithi further described Sales' unique attributes, "Many people said he is very tall, but I don't think he is very tall. He is a little bit skinny; I think he is 1.84 – I think that's what deceives even defenders and think he is the tallest. But I think he has got a very good leap but what I like most about him is his first-touch. He has got a very good first-touch and an eye for goal," continued the coach.

As Sundowns prepare to kick off their campaign against Polokwane City in the MTN8 quarter-finals in Atteridgeville this Sunday, the team looks to implement these enhancements effectively, aiming for success across all fronts under Mngqithi's experienced leadership.
