What kind of preapration do u want, when you are beaten by Mozambique, its a pitty flames to be beaten by Mozambique and you say that has nothing to do with CAN, just admit kuti in Zimbabwe zinakuvutani, the approach was bad and it be a lesson learned osati kumanamiza anthu kuti eee, we were trying new players, anzanu fielded under 23 team mpaka afika finalsa pomwe inu you fielded the cream of local players, why did u side line Chikaiko Bridge the current super leguae top gaol scorer, kapena mumafuna akanasintha dzina akhale Chikaiko Nyasulu kapena Zimba? Nation team selection needs to be screened bobo too many mbwenu mbwenusi as if other tribes do not have good players, zimatipweteka oonelelafe, enafe mpaka tinakalipila DSTV kuti tikuoneleni ku Cosafa, but shame kuchinyidwa first game, shame on you Kinnah and your boys. Unother disgrace is Under 17, I wish you could have hired mzungu to coach the boys immediatetly after qualifying thru the back door, the technical team knew kuti during qualifiers you were fielding over aged players, akukokelani kuti mukaimilile ku Nigeria world cup, mukukasewela mwazibwana, I do not think the whole Malawi can fail to produce good players, end result same song we played well but lucky was not on our side, vuto lodalila nyanga mumpira ndilimenelo. Mwai wotele wosewela ndi ma teams like Spain, USA umasowa instead of kuugwilitsa to the maximum basi kumangopanga zachidodo. Kodi a Malawi mudzachangamuka liti?? There is need to change ok!!!
