Chiefs players struggling to settle in – Zwane

“I think when it comes to players, it’s been the case of adaptation. Players learn differently. Some will find it difficult to settle in quickly,” the Kaizer Chiefs coach told IOL.

“And that could be the result of being a Chiefs player. It’s up to the technical team to help them settle in quickly and know what’s needed from them.

“But time has changed and things have evolved. I don’t want to talk about the past. Players of today deal with pressure differently than before as well.”
