Stuart Baxter addresses Mamelodi Sundowns’ imperialism in the league
The Amakhosi boss believes all the 15 DStv Premiership clubs have to address Masandawana's dominance and says the challenge is not only for his side. He is quoted by The South African:
“We have to address this catching up with Mamelodi Sundowns by getting better and not being angry. I think that is what we have seen and if Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates have injury issues, pressure issues or confidence issues or don’t do right in the transfer market.
"We have to make sure that we get all those things right. When I say I don’t just mean Kaizer Chiefs but the rest of the teams in the league. They have had a better day in the market and their confidence is high because they don’t have those issues.”
Formerly in charge of SuperSport United in the Mzansi top flight, Baxter added that the reigning league champions built a formidable side. He added, as per KickOff:

Football“They have built a culture at the club and it is about winning. Like Sir Alex Ferguson said, we have to knock them off their perch and that is the job we have like everybody else.”

“This one gets too excited over small things, not so long Parker scored a brace against SupersSort after decades of not finding the back of the net, he was telling everyone that he'll play him in an "advanced position.”
@MalusiTshepo said:
"He is just fuelling this Sundowns fire. Their players really do enjoy a challenge... I hope for his sake he really has a plan, but from what I saw Saturday, I don't even think Chiefs has a blueprint on how to win games, it's just luck.”
@Benra1001 said:
“That's where these teams get it wrong. The plan should come from Kaizer Motaung and not the coach, because it should involve big spending too.”

In a related story, Briefly News wrote that South African football fans are united in one voice as they say Mamelodi Sundowns should be handed the DStv Premiership trophy already. This comes after Masandawana continued with their rich vein of form in their domestic campaign.
Coach Manqoba Mngqithi and Rulani Mokwena’s troops are yet to suffer a defeat out of nine DStv Premier League games. On top of that, they are yet to concede a goal in the season so far either.
This impressive record has led many fans to call for the club to be crowned as champions because it seems nobody will ever stop them. Social media users are reacting to a tweet by FarPost.
