If Daniel Akpeyi was a South African was Khune going to be in trouble ? It is always good to have no competition in all businesses. But there is one thing you should know that competition is good in many ways .
Someone said on ineedmotivation that
“Without competition, you’d be on cruise control, with no worries in the world. This makes you vulnerable and prone for mistakes that can be costly. With competition around, you are more likely to keep your eyes open and capture every detail along the way so that you remain on top of your game. Competition makes you see things that you normally would not bother noticing.”
If Daniel Akpeyi was a South African was Khune going to be in trouble ?
Everyone see things in a different way , to me if Daniel was a South African Khune was going to be even better than what he is today . In life the more difficult the situation the more stronger a person gets . Both Khune and Daniel were called by their national teams , that tells you that they are world class goalkeepers .
Bafana Bafana coach Molefi Ntseki selected Itumeleng Khune for a reason . Don’t you think he knows also about other South African keepers ?
“I’m fully aware that Itumeleng Khune hasn’t played‚” Ntseki said.
“In our meeting with [Chiefs] coach Ernst Middendorp I made him aware that I might select Khune‚ and we had a very interesting discussion about Khune.
“He ended up saying to me that Itumeleng Khune and Daniel Akpeyi are the No 1s at Kaizer Chiefs – the difference is that Daniel is currently doing well. And‚ by the way‚ Daniel has also gotten a call-up for Nigeria.
“A playing Khune‚ with his qualities and his experience‚ is a player to be considered for the national team.
“When you look at the six goalkeepers that we profiled for Bafana Bafana going into this camp we realised that it was only Ronwen Williams who is currently playing regularly.
“Brandon Petersen was not playing. He was left out because Ricardo [Goss] was doing well. But this time it’s been Brandon who’s been playing‚ so we’ve taken him.
Pitso Mosimane warns Kaizer Chiefs
“When it comes to the four goalkeepers who are not playing‚ who will provide answers for us‚ ‘Itu’ fits that quality that we are looking for. That is why we have ‘Itu’ in the team.”
