Sheppard reveals how hunt is coping.
Kaizer Chiefs assistance coach Dillion Sheppard has given an indication 9f the difficulties head coach Gavin Hunt and the technical team have been experiencing this season.
Chiefs has endured a turbulent season under Hunt, who has been tested for his resolve and fortitude in his first ‘big’ job in his 27-year coaching career.
The 56 years old has often times faced massive backlash for failing to deliver as expected with a team that nearly won the Premiership title in the previous season.
While his joyous run in the continent may come as little comfort, it has allowed him a Welkom of distraction from the domestic troubles, and Sheppard has now lifted the lid on how the four-time league championship-winning tactician has coped.
“You know Gavin always wears his heart on his sleeve, he’s very emotional, so obviously when results haven’t been coming, it’s probably been very difficult for him also to try and find solutions and try and find ways of playing to get the result,” Sheppard told reporters.
“So, I think it’s not just been a tough season for him but I think for all of us, because there are high expectations at a team like Kaizer Chiefs, and you’re expected to be amongst the top and challenging for all the trophies.
“So, ja, it’s been tough for everyone. Controlling the emotions, I think, has been the hard part.”
