Baroka FC left-back Tebogo Langerman has named Kaizer Chiefs defender Thabiso Monyane and Polokwane City’s Thabang Matuludi among the players that have impressed him so far this season.
Monyane joined Amakhosi as a free agent at the start of the campaign after being released by Orlando Pirates at the end of the previous season. The 25-year-old has played five matches for Chiefs where he also been hailed as one of their best acquisitions this season while also breaking into the senior national team.
Langerman told iDiski Times journalist Lethabo Kganyago in edition 225 of the newspaper that Monyane and Polokwane City’s Thabang Matuludi have stood out for him though he believes the duo still have room to improve.
“Now there’s modern football, converted left-backs and all that,” Langerman told iDiski Times.
“I think we do have good left-backs, but I don’t think there is intensity or the speed. Now it’s more tactical than before. We used to work hard; we used to run non-stop. But if there are good right-backs right now, one of them is the player who left [Orlando] Pirates for [Kaizer] Chiefs.
“Yes, and the one from Polokwane City, [Thabang] Matuludi, and he just needs to work on certain things, he’s very good, top talent. He needs some help, but he has potential.
“Those are the full-backs I’m impressed with, but they still need to work on their game.”
