Welcome home old man…charity begins and end @ home
My team zanaco looks strong but the problem is the coaching department..
Isaac, your blood is Yellow, why can’t you go back to Power?
I hope that new coach won’t disappoint us like Chiyengi did…#Zanaco! #Sensational!
And we shall still be crying for his return to the National “Archives” Team-kekekekeke. I think i should also feature in the National Team in my very late 40s seeing as wamuyaya is the norm now-kekekekeke
I think that’s a bit unfair uncle Bobs. We should be prising his contributions and not rebuking something that might not even happen
Zambians don’t appreciate players who have done it. Akaso too much and busy calling players names. Look at Mali, Ghana and Cote Devour – Players have been there for along time and have been rewarded. But here, those in late 40’s will soon start calling 3030 as wamuyayaya- AKASO bane thats why we will not win any major tournament (apart from COSAFA) if we keep insulting players like Isaac, Felix, Fwayo, Mayuka, Mukuka Mulenga, Kola etc. Lets encourage them so that tha transition is smooth and not drastic like what happened in January 2015. Cameroon & RSA tried it and results are there for all to see.
Asamoha Gyan could have been called a dog in ZEd
where they say “returned” I thought it should be “retained”!
Indeed Chansa Isaac is power. One thing I have noticed is that when a player returns to Zambia from a foreign club especially from Europe and Asia they just want to stay in Lusaka.
Yes the onelamo copperbelt, I wonder why .
Let Isaac Chansa come back to South Africa .I know Chansa is still a quality player and many clubs can want his services.
