We need reorganising at FAZ; Get Kalu out and put in true managers of the game. Then we need our boys to make it natural qualifying for continental tournaments at all stages, just like Chipolopolo does. Then fight to get to world tournaments (again of all age grougs); then such articles concerning ‘our players abroad’ will make interesting reading…just my thoughts.
You’re now talking brother. Currently Zambian football is in deep shit at all levels.
shut foolish tribalist.
You wasted sperm dick-head.
Non of the clubs above is really good. Chai zambians. So not even of your players is playing in a good team?? Hhmm. y’all should stop bragging. Asap
Zambia is finished the only serious professionals are fwayo and chisamba. We are in serious trouble.
Kola is good as well. As for Zambian football we need change at FAZ. We need to bring people whose desire and dream is the World Cup
One question we should ask ourselves is? Why are west African teams doing well? There is definitely a reason for that it is not coincidence. There really must be something they have been getting right
Kalu should leave and now is the right time for him, unless the idiot has another agenda. Supporters of Kalu are really clam and pathetic. Go lick his shoes in SA, the guy is a joker, chimbwi no plan
As long as Kalu remains chairman of FAZ mwebene ati President when there is only one in Zed, Zambian soccer will never get anywhere. People come and go, period
The biggest problem is with clubs who don’t seem to attach any importance to youth development.Clubs are no longer scouting for young talent.The situation is even worsened with the new trend to bring in foreigners in our league.We will soon become another England selecting untested players from lower division for national team duties!Players are developed by clubs and not the national association!
shut up foolish tribalist.

And who is gonna read this? fool. Post the crap on your poor fathers website if at all he has one in his village and then give me a link. I will visit the site if I find that necessary
Instead of analysing our own players perfomance, you bring in those urgly players from west africa. Why can’t we stick to what is in the artica? What benefit could it bring to Zambians for monitoring those urgly players?
Uglier than you mom? Which of your offspring is prettier than your mom? Birds of the same feathers……..
We all saw the ancient players you paraded for the under 20. These miners need to retire as they were whipped by the younger looking Amajitas.
Pin your image dude, so that we can see how handsome you are idiot
mumbi,i bet you,the most ugliest player in ghana will be the most handsome celebrity in zambia..i am yet to see any good looking guy in your team ranging from u17 to snr.team..hahaha,failures and shameless individual..from club to national team is a disgrace..i think you deserve 200th in the caf ranking because sao tome is worth 60th more than you do
Butti why are we arguing about ugly and handsome players honestly?? Like really?? This is childish mwe. Grown men arguing about football players looks…nuff said.
Thumps up Positive thinking!!It does not add any value to discuss the facial shape of players.After all we are not in beauty contest here.

Mumbi starts this nonsense all the time. Strange Paradox is not supporting Mumbi
