Kaizer Chiefs coach Nasreddine Nabi has assessed his outfit performance with few matches to end the 2024/25 football campaign.
With just eight victories, six draws, and eleven losses in 25 league outings, the team sits uncomfortably in ninth position with only 30 points, sparking numerous concerns as the club hover just seven points above the relegation zone. The squad’s alarming six-match winless run highlights their ongoing difficulties.
“The current situation is completely unacceptable – there are no excuses,” admitted a frustrated Nabi. “While poor results are troubling, what truly concerns me is that we’ve completely abandoned our playing philosophy. This loss of identity is far more worrying than any defeat.”
Reflecting on recent performances, the coach added: “The statistics from our matches tell their own story. We can analyze them endlessly, but the brutal truth is we’re in crisis. In earlier games, at least we maintained structure – creating chances even if finishing was poor, getting exposed only on counters. But now? We’ve collapsed completely.”
Nabi emphasized accountability, stating: “I could walk you through every setback from recent weeks, but explanations won’t change our reality. When a team forgets how to play its own game, that’s not just bad form – it’s a fundamental breakdown that demands immediate solutions.”
Meanwhile, Kaizer Chiefs have set up a tie with rivals Orlando Pirates in the semifinals of the South African Cup competition.
