IronGalaxy:this right here is a major concern for me too, S.A.league is one of the best in Africa with great investments too and also a football crazy nation I wonder how they always fall to teams with lower standard of football compare to their's, its not like these other teams have top stars in Europe. 1 Like |

IronGalaxy: Oga there is no talent at all . majority of there player are far below average apart Percy Tao.. Because everybody is playing and they have facilities does not mean there is talent . |

sirtuler:There is talent. We have a player at Newcastle United, we have a player at Leicester City and at Southampton. All those players aren't chosen...we have players players in Portugal playing week in week out. Don't tell me that's not talent. |

Shattuck:The mentality of our home based players is also to blame tbh.. South African players are spoilt man, they don't push themselves. They are content to just play for the big three which is Pirates, Chiefs and Sundowns. Part of the reason is that the league can now pay at high salaries because of TV deals, some teams can match Greece, Belgium etc lin pay level so when our players get offers from those countries they turn them down because they get the same money here at home, the effect is that our players don't get to play at a higher level as a result. 1 Like |

AFONJAPIG:I'm not claiming we have those, we have them as a matter of fact. We have facilities that rival those in Europe but results are not forthcoming due to a myriad of reasons. |

richmanrichard:Not everything we do revolves around Nigerians. Our players aren't trying to be Okocha. If we didn't have footballing talent, we certainly wouldn't have produced stellar players in the past |

lexy2014:The size of rugby players is not similar to that of footballers, even the training is different, rugby players bulk up footballers don't. You also have to look at the ethnic make up of most of rugby teams, Afrikanners. They are usually big and tall even black players that play rugby usually come from rugby type conditioning. Black South Africans are usually shorter and lighter in comparison to West Africans |

walletxtra:Spain, before their team started dominating the world, always underachieved at the international stage despite having players like Hierro, Raul, Nadal etc and having teams like Barcelona, Madrid etc. If you will remember, in France 98, you guys knocked them out with that Oliseh goal..My point is we are simply underachieving, we are not devoid of talent. |

robosky02:Theres is natural talent in South Africa. We wouldn't have the likes of Pienaar, McCarthy, Radebe, Fortune etc if we didn't have natural talent. I know there is this tendency for Nigerians to be salty whenever South Africa s mentioned but be reasonable. |

IronGalaxy: You're right,absolutely ! Your team needs total overhauling and I think you also need to adopt a football philosophy that's result oriented. I mean a winning mentality; not just to entertain and all these wacky goal celebrations ! With all the resources and infrastructures at its disposal,Bafana Bafana should be one of the strongest contenders for afcon tittle but sadly, they (Bafana Bafana) are pretenders,always ! There are lot of very good and talented foreign players in your league that have not been capped by their countries. You can naturalised some of these players to help your soccer development. You need strong players in your team. France did that successfully; you can do it too. Good luck ! |

IronGalaxy: Dude, u missed d point & u are now bringing ethnicity into d discussion which is unnecessary & has nothing to do with it. Siya Kolisi isn't white and a million Siya Kolisis can still be produced. If we are to go by ur theory that it's d Afrikaaners that make up most of ur rugby team because they are bigger & taller than d blacks, then d sports ministry should start recruiting more Afrikaaners into bafana bafana instead of depending on black footballers |
