Spencer backs Nabi, but Warns: No excuses for Kaizer Chiefs next season

Nabi was expected to be Chiefs' messiah this season: end the team's barren run and also rebuild a strong side for future generations.

The Tunisia-born coach has been obsessed with the latter, though, saying "completing the process" is much more important than grinding out results.

That didn't go down well with some of the 'Khosination', as they believed that he's not the right man for the job due to a failure in finding the balance between getting results and rebuilding.

Nabi, for all his flaws since his arrival, might have the last laugh this season, though, as his side could end their drought via the Nedbank Cup.

This is good news for most of Chiefs' fans, as a win over Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup final at Moses Mabhida Stadium on May 10 will also see them qualify for continental football.

But with the match yet to be played and Pirates clear favourites to win their third Nedbank Cup in a row, Chiefs can't afford to get carried away.
