Bafana Bafana

I spoke with Pitso Mosimane today. He is the stand in-stand in coach for Bafana for the COSAFA Cup next weekend. The same weekend as the ABSA Cup final. So how many people will be watching a loosing national side against Swaziland? None, but we have to mention it.

Anyway, I asked Pitso why he included Aaron Mokoena in the side even though he is so badly injured that his English side said that he will only be ready when the English Premiership starts up again after thier Summer. Pitso's answert was simple, He said that his doctor hasn't had a lok to confirm the injury. Also, Aaron wants to play for his country.

KAK!!!

If Aaron wanted to play for his country so badly, he would have put his personal differences with Ted Dumitru aside and gone to Egypt for the African Cup of Nations. He wouldn't have sulked off to England and he wouldn't have gone to the press about the whole issue. Wanker.

If he is a little injured and wants to play sooooo badly, is it really a good idea to put him in anyway? This move counld be a career ending one. EVen I know, with very little physiology training, that if you have an injury, you rest it. You don't strain it, you don't push it. That would cause an injury that is even worse.

Why would the South African soccer coach even think of doing that to the captain of the national side? Stupidity? Incompatence? Who knows? I don't think they do either.
