"Wherever I go, my soldiers go with me," is Pitso Mosimane's mantra when it comes to his technical team – but who are Jingles' technical team and why does he trust them so much?

As he plots his next move, which is highly likely to be in January, Mosimane has been doing media duties following his exit from Al Wahda earlier this month.
A key talking point for Mosimane, particularly in his interview with the South African Football Journalists Association has been his technical team, who are a crucial part of his success.
Mosimane has kept the same crop of staff around for the last 10 years aside from the exits of Cavin Johnson and Yusha Said, who he worked with at Al Ahly.
In light of this, the Siya crew takes a closer look at Mosimane's trusted men and what they offer.
Kyle Solomon
Solomon is one of two performance analysts in Pitso's arsenal. He holds a Higher national diploma in coaching science and joined the Mosimane brigade from Orlando Pirates where he spent four years. He has since been part of Mosimane's Al Ahly, Al Ahli and Al Wahda sides.
Kabelo Rangoaga
'KB' who is a fitness and conditioning coach hails from Mosenthal, a village outside Rustenburg. He has been working with Mosimane for the better part of the last decade, having joined him at Mamelodi Sundowns in 2014. Mosimane rates him "as important as the players" to the team's success and vision. He has been crucial in getting Al Ahli Jeddah promoted as he worked rigorously on the players' fitness.
Musi Matlaba
Another performance analyst in Mosimane's team is Matlaba. That he has won three CAF Champions League titles alongside the coach tells you all you need to know about the football fundi. The Sports Science Bachelors Degree holder spent seven years at Sundowns before taking a leap of faith alongside Mosimane.
Maahier Davids
The 37-year-old, who is the brother of Raja Casablanca coach Fadlu, holds a Uefa A Licence and adds a wealth of experience. He was in charge of Al Wahda when Mosimane suffered a health ailment. He has amassed experience with clubs like Free State Stars, Maritzburg United, Cape Umoya United and Saint George SA.
Hamad Alyami
The latest member to join Mosimane's crew is Hamad Alyami, the experienced goalkeeper coach who Mosimane found at Al Ahli Jeddah, and despite his exit from the Saudi club, continued to work with the experienced coach who is now a full-time member of his technical team.
