Events

14
  1. Clashed with Siyabonga Kekana over training standards

    Minor
    Cause
    The disagreement started because they judged training effort very differently. It played out on the training ground in front of the rest of the squad.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  2. Criticised again for the same issue

    Moderate
    Cause
    The manager has flagged this same issue inside the last month. Staff had already warned him about this in the last few weeks.
    Outlook
    Repeated incidents may damage dressing-room status.
  3. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor
    Cause
    The team had won, and the manager wanted to reinforce the standards. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.
  4. Warned about his body language

    Moderate
    Cause
    The issue was less about ability and more about his reaction when things went wrong. His match rating of 5.8 weighed heavily in the talk.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

    Moderate
    Cause
