Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos is expected to give all his outfield players an opportunity to play, but this week's Friday debate asks who should start upfront for the clash against Namibia , considering he has so many options.
Soccer Laduma got in touch with Bafana Bafana supporters to give their opinion on who should start upfront, with Zakhele Lepasa and Lyle Foster both doing well for Orlando Pirates and Burnley respectively.
Hendrick Maoka - Bafana Bafana supporter
Not to sound too controversial, but I would prefer that he starts with Lepasa. Not because I am an Orlando Pirates supporter, but for continuity. We know that in the last games he has scored, so for continuity purposes, I think he should start with Lepasa. If he is to be substituted, then he can bring on Lyle Foster. But I feel that he should start with Lepasa for about 60 or 70 minutes and then bring on Foster. Those are my best two strikers. I would go to war any time with them because they are currently on form. Not to take credit from the other strikers. That list is so good and I admit it's so confusing. I don't want to be in Hugo's shoes right now, but personally I would go for Lepasa.
Phillip Jwarha - Bafana Bafana supporter
For me, competition is tough, but I think Lepasa is doing well enough to start. I know the competition is high, but looking at the performances of the strikers in the team, I think Lepasa is the one who is in good form and he deserves to be in the starting line-up. May coach Hugo Broos can play with two strikers to make things easier for the team, but I think right now Lepasa is on form and he should start. Yes, Foster is playing in Europe and he is doing well for the team he plays for, but I think a lot of people can see that Lepasa has arrived. I think Lepasa should get a chance to start.
