The supporters are keen to see the striker emulate the Amakhosi legends who donned the jersey before him

Kaizer Chiefs fans want to see new signing Christian Saile Basomboli produce the kind of magic witnessed during the times of Knowledge Musona and Thabang Lebese.

Basomboli was officially unveiled by the club on Wednesday and handed the No21 shirt which has been worn by legendary figures at the club such as Musona and Lebese.

While the supporters feel the club still needs to improve in other areas, especially in midfield, they want the striker to maintain the standards set by those who donned the jersey before him.

    Zwane doing a good job

    I pray every supporter can acknowledge the change he [Zwane] has made. For him to be in the top three at the end of the season will be an improvement to our team. If you know what the Motaung family and its management has done to the team, they destroyed the greatest team ever and this guy is trying. -@MG_FAYI

  2. Zwane should appreciate the support

    Zwane should appreciate the support

    I hope Zwane sees how much faith the management has in him. No other coach has failed so much and still did things his way and got what he wanted. Being fully supported.

    Hope he does better than Musona

    The last time we had a deadly jersey number 21 was with this god [Knowledge Musona] the Smiling Assassin. Hope he [Basomboli] does better than him. Otherwise, welcome to the team sir. You're our last hope to this nation of lost souls. -@KillzShoddy

    Last amazing striker to wear 21 was Knowledge Musona. We need goals, that jersey number needs to be revived. -@Ntsika_17

    Better produce Knowledge Musona's magic and more. Welcome Saile. Let me give you the nickname of The Punisher. -@LesMvundlela

    Zwane should be backed

    Arthur Zwane [the] only coach who has a better direction and a fantastic philosophy. The club has been losing games but is playing sensational football compared with all those coaches in the past six years. They only need to be consistent let's support him patiently.
