The German led Amakhosi in one of the greatest meltdowns in PSL historyChiefs missed what looked like a golden opportunity for silverwareThe collapse allowed Mamelodi Sundowns to continue with their domestic dominanceWHAT HAPPENED? Kaizer Chiefs led the standings for the better part of the season and at one time were 12 points clear at the top. But they allowed Mamelodi Sundowns to launch a comeback and snatch the Premier Soccer League title on the last day of the season.
Bucs were the first team to win back-to-back trebles in the Premier Soccer League era with Professor considered to be an influential impact player. The former Chippa United attacker would change the complexion of the game in favour of Pirates when he came on as a substitute. He was released by the Houghton-based giants in 2013 having established himself as a fan favourite at the club and some consider him to be a club legend.
“I was hoping maybe the next season things would change. But of course it didn't. “But I appreciate the opportunity to play for such a club and those players too, winning two trebles, six trophies, that was big for me and for my career too. ” THE BIGGER PICTURE: Mayambela left the Buccaneers having enjoyed a lot of success being part of a team that made history.

“From March until the middle of June you have to give them freedom and self-responsibility [to train on their own]. Only four out of 10 are not doing what was requested from them, are not keeping themselves sharp and then what? “You need everybody on the field, not six out of 10, but everybody who has to contribute from the start of the game until the end of the game, even if it was 98 minutes. That was for me the main reason at that time. ” THE BIGGER PICTURE: After the disappointment of missing out on the league title, Chiefs then fired Middendorp. Veteran coaches Gavin Hunt and Stuart Baxter have come after Middendorp but have failed to ease Amakhosi’s struggles.
However, the Cape Town-born retired winger was mainly used as a substitute during his three-year stint with the Soweto giants who were dominating South African football at the time. Mayambela, who made 24 appearances as a substitute under coach Ruud Krol and helped Bucs clinch a domestic treble in the 2010-11 term, stated that he had to make a sacrifice. WHAT DID MAYAMBELA SAY: “I came in and people were so excited. I remember with my first touch I didn't do anything, just received the ball and the crowd went mad, " Mayambela said on Marawa Sports Worldwide. "I felt this was where I was going to shine and maybe also get into the national team, which was my dream too. But of course, it didn't work that way.
I played 24 games as a sub. It was something worked out by the coach [Ruud Krol]. “He liked how I came on as a sub and changed the complexion of the game. And honestly, it worked out for the club that season. Honestly, I would have liked to have started more games but sometimes in football you also have to suffer and sacrifice for the team. It's something I did that season.

Having last claimed any piece of silverware when they won the 2014/15 league title, it was a missed opportunity for the Soweto giants. PSL action was suspended due to the coronavirus-induced lockdown and Middendorp blames some of his former players for returning unfit. WHAT THEY SAID: “We had no influence to keep players straight into the day-to-day program on what we had before, ” Middendorp told iDiski Times. “We had workshops twice a month with the players together to keep them in unison, and when the league was stopped in March until June, we had no control. We couldn’t influence everything in the right direction to put them together, and you could see already that only 14 days we prepared, we had them together, and you could see the physical side, you could see the mindset, you could see the brain was not directed in the way as we had them when the league was stopped with Covid-19 coming in March 2020.
“For me, this is the reason we were not able to go ahead and finalise the season being on top. The preparations were not at the same level as we did it before. Of course, it looked like it was over the line, but we should have been able to do our off-the-field stuff, communicating with our players in the morning and afternoon to keep them focused. I’ll be 100 percent sure that it would have been a clear championship at the end of the season.
