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.

- MIHLALI BALEKA.

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 tomorrow 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.”
