  1. this is a wonderful squad the coach has made. well the boys should be ready to demolish namibia wishing you the best. preparations should be strong and people with injury free. hard work always is good go go go chipolopolo we shall support you

  2. See what we were saying,no one is complaing about the selection unlike previously good job coach come d day Richard and his not so brave lads will babe humiliated on their back yard.

  3. this is good if Namibia can beat this team then u can beet our best players. the couch has done his part it remains with players to prove.go Zambia go chipolopolo.

  4. I like this Coach’s approach to mixing youth and experience. I for one wondered why Mbola and Lubambo were always snubbed by previous coaches. Bola tu nga tambako iyi nomba!

  5. Fantastic squad could somebody tell me why Evans Kangwa has missed this squad but again even if he was to be there he would be on the bench because Parson Daka and Kambole are a notch above Evans.
    I fancy a 3-4-3 formation
    Sunzu.5 Mbola.3 Kalaba.11
    Samjopa.4 Sinkala.6 Daka. 9
    Chongo.2 Mwepu 8 Kambole 10
    Augustine 7

  6. Lelo Lelo Namibia, we will put you in your rightful place. Coach congrats the choice. Now please monitor the Golden generation 2017 U20 the World cup semifinalist, we need them all squad for 2022 world cup qualifiers

  7. This team is well balanced. It’s what we have been calling for as fans. Now what’s left is the players to prove themselves. Thumbs up Sven on team selection.

  8. i never see such a nice coach like sven vanedenbroeck. displined, skilled and experienced players are all in squad . GO ZAMBIA GO !

  9. great team we expect to watch great football this time. Namibia we r coming in style this time!!! well loaded with bullets.

  10. Love the look of this team. I have really been relishing seeing a Nathan Sinkala Enoch Mwepu midfield combo.

    Still have my concerns about the full back positions. If Mbola is half as good as he was back in the day then we might be okay.

    Can’t wait to hear or see what happens.

  11. Excellent call ups and hoping for best team selection.
    It’s up to the Boys to prove themselves! This is what Zambians have been looking for!

    Better Coach & you only become best after taking us to Cameron

  12. This is what we have been waiting for, mr sven you have finally made our dream come true please continue showing your hard work.

  13. we wish you well guy’s, let’s make it happen again. viva chipopolo but remember we need more goals don’t forget that. we wish you well our happiness is in your talent
