Make Mwase take it easy. Few months ago you were the reason why u-20 failed to qualify. After producing a nil all draw in RSA. You came home thinking the boys have made it already. Instead of being in camp you went to zodiak Fm to complain how that only 2 journalists welcomed you. And your careless talk on the on the radio brought complacency in the boys. Grow up. Be patient.

So what have u explained in your article about the missing of Botomani? I have no issues with Peter Mponda being part of the panel, it’s good for continuity and learning curve for the lads.
