Ryan Rae is the latest signing to join the struggling Team of Choice. In January/February, they completed a total of 6 new signings (3 youth players).
Rae is the newest of those. He joins a struggling Maritzburg United. They only have 2 wins from 15 DSTV Premiership matches this season.
They are languishing at the bottom of the table with 9 points. Ernst Middendorp faces a tough challenge to keep them in the league.
Despite this, Ryan Rae is adamant that Maritzburg United is a good team.
“Maritzburg have always been a difficult club to play against, so I’m happy to be part of the club.” He tells the club website.
“With the amount of respect I have for the club, it’s been phenomenal the way I have been accepted here. It’s always been a professional-looking club and the setup I’ve seen so far has been amazing – very excited to be here.
“All the players who I’ve spoken to who have played under coach Middendorp have always told me, he’s a great coach, always demanding, strict with his players, but also very enjoyable in his training sessions.
“Even in the match when things are not going well he keeps on encouraging you and I’ve been very blessed to work under such an established coach, I’m very excited to work under him.” Ryan Rae said.
Speaking ahead of the Nedbank Cup defeat to Orlando Pirates, Rae was very optimistic of their chances in the game. The Team of Choice lost 3-1 at the Harry Gwala Stadium.
“Pirates are a tough team always, a very good team, very good players that they have there,” commented Maritzburg United’s new signing, Ryan Rae.
“But I don’t think we should be afraid, we have great players who can compete here at Maritzburg United.
“A lot of experience and also a lot of youthful energy. So I don’t think we should be scared, we should be excited, and we should challenge them. Anything can happen if we work as a team and I think that is the most important thing.”
“Cups are different to the league. Watching the team, the performances haven’t been bad, it’s just been unlucky moments here and there. Getting a good result in the cup could definitely push us forward in the league to show us what we can actually do.” Rae concluded.
