Soccer Fans React To Baxter Calling Thulani Serero For National Duty
Soccer Fans React To Baxter Calling Thulani Serero For National Duty! After snubbing Stuart Baxter almost a year ago for a chance to join the Bafana Bafana squad, Serero is back and on the Bafana squad to face Nigeria next month.
Back in November 2017, Serero had snubbed Baxter’s call saying he wanted to be guaranteed game-time to come play for Bafana. Fast forward to now, Baxter has explained why he has given the star a second chance.
““I am working from the assumption that everybody can make a poor decision and I thought his decision was poor when he didn’t want to come back, and that’s okay. But I do think everybody’s got a right to a second chance. With me, this is his second chance,” Baxter said on his decision.
Soccer fans had something to say about Serero’s return.
I seriously don’t get why Thulani Serero is in Bafana Bafana squad hey. What does he want there?

Thulani Serero is probably the best midfielder South Africa has to offer so it’s good to see him back in the #BafanaBafana squad. Hopefully he can commit to the nation now and help us qualify for #AFCON2019.

Too much fanfare about Thulani Serero’s call back to the senior man’s national team does not hold water… He’s one of those players who reserves their performance for their clubs, and still expect to be given first preference ahead of deserving players.

Thulani Serero is a good player, but then He shouldn’t be begged to play in his national team. Starting 11 worth being worked for. #BafanaBafana

Next time Thulani Serero will demand a guarantee of capacity crowd before playing for #BafanaBafana pic.twitter.com/MqcG4wkMwT

Why is Thulani Serero called up to the Bafana Bafana squad, this is the same guy who refused to play when we needed him, the same one who thought he is bigger than the team. Other players in the same position should be given a chance, he threw his in our faces when he had it pic.twitter.com/oFsFWTybCW
