Ouaddou stays grounded despite stellar run and praise

DESPITE wearing an elbow brace like the cyborg assassin, The Terminator, Abdeslam Ouaddou believes he's neither hard to detect nor using rifles and shurikens to attack his opponents.

Instead, he says he’s working hard with his players during training and giving them the best strategies to annihilate the opposition.

However, speaking during the pre-match press conference ahead of the Carling Knockout last-16 clash at home to Siwelele on Saturday afternoon (3pm kickoff), Ouaddou remained humble, insisting he is “yet to arrive” despite the team’s impressive streak.

“To be honest, I am not focused on that (being linked with a plumber or The Terminator). The most important thing is to focus on the job and be consistent,” Ouaddou said.

“I am coaching a fantastic club and have the chance to be surrounded by a lot of South African talent who are doing a very good job. So we are just focusing on our work and trying to bring happiness to our fans."
