Orlando Pirates winger Vincent Pule has been full of praise for the Buccaneers’ new Spanish head coach Jose Riveiro but admitted the players have let him down so far.
Pule shared some insight when he spoke with the media on Monday during the Carling Black Label Cup launch at FNB stadium.
The 30-year-old praised the Spaniard for understanding the game and having an ability to read the game and insisted that the players had let the coach down by not finishing their chances in results so far this season.
“He’s a hardworking coach, he really wants his players to work hard,” Pule told local journalists.
“We really understand his tactics and ability to read the game. Unfortunately, we let him down by not finishing our chances. I think if we can finish off our chances, we would be talking a different story by now.”
Ezimnyama Ngenkani have three trophies to fight for this season which are the DStv Premiership, MTN8 and Nedbank Cup. They are already in the MTN8 semi-finals where they will face defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns in the two-leg tie.
“I think we have a really good depth in the squad, good players that can compete anywhere in the world,” Pule added.
“I think it will really play a vital role in us gunning for every cup that we are going to participate in. It’s gonna be very important that everyone gets a chance and everyone stays fit and injury free.”
