Kaizer Chiefs captain Inacio Miguel is relectant to make promises despite Amakhosi’s good start to the season.
The 29-year-old defender says the team is more focused about winning the next match than winning trophies. Having taken over the armband from Yusuf Maart this season, Miguel has been solid in two games as his side is yet to concede.
“We’re not focused on the other teams, you know we are focusing on ourselves and our job what we can do better,” he told the media.
Kaizer Chiefs captain not making promises
“I think we have nothing to do with the other team’s results If we don’t focus on ourselves, we can do nothing different from the last season.
“So personally, I don’t care about the other teams’ results; I care about my team. I care about the way that we work and the way that we win that game. That’s the most important for us, focusing on ourselves,” Miguel added.
The Kaizer Chiefs captain said he can’t create expectations and tell fans what they want to hear.
“I think the fans of Kaizer Chiefs, more than anything, deserve the truth,” he added.
“They deserve us to be honest. I’m very honest with myself. I have a lot of people that on the streets and tell me, Miguel, this season we’ll lift another trophy.
“Listen, I think the most important thing is that they have to understand that we have to go game by game. We can’t create expectations, because then from the expectation it will come the disappointment, I don’t want disappointments on the fans,” the Kaizer Chiefs captain said,
“So, what I can promise to the fans is nothing but hard work, every game, every training. We will be there, and we’ll try to do our best to bring the trophies that they want.
“But don’t ask me for trophies, ask me to win games, ask me to go game by game. If we win game by game, we will probably achieve our goals. It will be easy, but as I said, I don’t want to disappoint them,” he concluded.
