AmaZulu head co-coach Arthur Zwane has opened up about how he feels regarding the team’s position in the Betway Premiership.
Usuthu is currently 15th on the log, and critics are already talking about relegation, however Zwane is not phased and says it’s too early to speak about such concerns.
“I know a lot of people will always say we’re fighting relegation, how can you fight relegation when you still have 25 games left? There’s still a lot to play for,” he said.
“You start fighting relegation when you’re left with five games, according to my understanding, it also depends on how other teams are doing and the gap between you and other teams, then you can start talking about relegation.”
“Right now, we are not even thinking about relegation. We are thinking about improving the team and challenging ourselves because we are in this league to compete,” he added.
“Probably, the break we are going to have is more of a blessing in disguise, but we would have liked to carry on with the momentum, it’s a chance to fix things we lack.”
The KZN outfit will return to action again in a league match against neighbours Richards Bay on 30 November at the King Zwelithini Stadium.
