It’s good to see my team Mighty back on the map of Zambia, contributing players to the National team, that’s the way to go .
What is noble rumsey doing on that list wen he doesn’t even make th bench @ power??? Corruption @ ts best. Thts why people want kalu out.
Patson the hero is bac lol….do these U20 players feature 4 thr clubs regularly or they r jst BWs (bench warmers) coz if they r BWs then they shud b axed we wnt regulars not aba muntambo (irregulars)
Patson daka is only 17 years old I don’t understand what Kalusha is fighting for. Zambia is hosting the u-20 in 2017 that is the perfect platform for patson. Why did Kalusha play him against bissau. We all know he is selecting the national team. He has cheaply exposed himself. He should stop that we he’s playing around with tax payers money.
Player selection is worrisome at the junior and senior level. Just don’t know who is doing it. Don’t know why people on this blog defend FAZ when HR always announced his own team, yet George’s team is being announced by FAZ.
A very weak team,I foresee a first round exit.
Taonga Bwembya is a deadball specialist and is only 21 years old but skipper for mighty.Good call up!
