The Rockets finished last season inside the top eight, and the Serbian tactician wants to build on that momentum rather than dwell on survival battles of the past.

The Mpumalanga-based club were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the MTN8 by Sekhukhune United last week.

"I think this season I don’t want to talk about surviving. I don’t want to talk about the same issues," Beganovic said.

"I saw exactly what we have, and we analysed everything, and we just use what we have in that moment."

He further added: "I can promise you we'll be a tough opponent for every team. We want to put our goals high, we want to fight for a top-eight spot because of everything we did in the last six, seven months.
