If Broos wants to shoot arrows ... he must aim them at the rich

BAFANA Bafana boss Hugo Broos is a forthright man. It’s a characteristic that has earned him the respect of both his players and the often-fickle South African media during his time in the country.

Earlier this week, Broos issued a public warning to Sundowns duo Jayden Adams and Fawaaz Basadien that their lack of gametime at the Betway Premiership champions will negatively affect their chances of making the trip to Morocco for AFCON at the end of the year.

Broos has already shown his hand by not including the pair in recent Bafana squads competing in the upcoming Fifa World Cup qualifiers.

The Belgian-born coach stressed: “For players, it’s important that you play, and not directly where you play. But you have to play, and this is not the case with Jayden now.”

He also singled out Basadien, who Broos not so long ago deemed senior enough to lead the team in regular captain Ronwen Williams’ absence.
