Why The Goals Have Dried Up For Bimenyimana At Chiefs

Why The Goals Have Dried Up For Bimenyimana At Chiefs

He powered to seven goals in his first seven appearances for Kaizer Chiefs – but Caleb Bonfils Bimenyimana has now gone six games without a goal, and he has revealed why the goals have dried up for him this campaign.

There was hope that Chiefs had found the solution to their goalscoring problems upon Bimenyimana's arrival.

And for a while he was, he managed seven strikes, including a hat-trick against Stellenbosch in October last year.

But a string of niggling injuries sidelined the Burundian attacker, meaning that Chiefs had to look elsewhere for their goals in his absence.

Bimenyimana has since returned to the Chiefs squad, although the goals are yet to follow.

Speaking to the media ahead of the Soweto Derby, Bimenyimana says the lack of consistency in the Chiefs starting XI has contributed to a lack of chemistry amongst the players, meaning that he had to adjust to playing with new players.

"If you see that in many games, we change the squad so it's difficult to know each other and how to pass and how to combine," he told journalists.

"But, I can say that, yes [I receive the supply] from the players that I've played with have been doing well, unfortunately we've been unlucky, and I don't know how to explain that," he continued.
