FADLU DAVIDS DESCRIPTION
South African coach Davids was the assistant at Raja Casablanca last season. It was where his team won the Botola Pro 1 on the final day of the season and at the expense of Nabi’s AS FAR.
According to Davids, Kaizer Chiefs have hired a very attacking coach.
“I think I’ve been misquoted a lot of the times, ” Davids told iDiski Times.
“I think people misunderstood where I said he is a direct coach. I’m talking about how he was the most attacking [team], he scored the most goals in Morocco. He was the coach that was always on top of us, it was so difficult to always play against him.
“It’s exciting times for Kaizer Chiefs, I think he will do extremely well there. Tactically it was never an easy game. There was always something he came up with against us to expose our weaknesses and he’s an attacking coach, that will move forward at any moment, that will attack.
“He will play a brand of football the Kaizer Chiefs fans will enjoy and I wish him all the best as well. It’s been a very difficult season in the end for him [in Morocco] but a fantastic season overall for FAR Rabat what they had last season, ” Davids concluded.
Meanwhile, Nabi’s Kaizer Chiefs will make their first appearance in South Africa on Sunday. Amakhosi will take on Yanga in the Toyota Cup at the Free Stadium Stadium at 15:00.
