“The president (Sandile Zungu) said it, we’re not going in there in the Champions League just to add numbers. We’re going because we see ourselves as title contenders.

“If we look at what we did last season (when we) finished second, and what Kaizer Chiefs did in the league (eighth place finish) and then finished runners up in the Champions League, I think we got a hell of a shot of going all the way.

“With all due respect to Chiefs, but I think if they can reach the final of the Champions League, we can go one better.

“Why not?

“So, I’m genuinely not meaning that to disrespect anybody, but I think jah, we challenge ourselves every day and we think we have got what it takes.

“They (Chiefs) are a great club, they’re fantastic. Domestically they’ve shown us what they can do, and, in the continent, they showed what they can do.
