VV explains why he dropped Tau and co

"I said in the beginning of the season that we have 27 players and four keepers all of the same quality.

"The senior guys who didn't play today need competition and from good competition we can improve. There is no jealousy or bad intentions" Vermezovic said.

Chiefs are now second on the log, two points behind SuperSport United, and 'VV' says it is important for his side to stay close to the log leaders who thumped Maritzburg United 7-0 on Friday.

"SuperSport is a very dangerous team this season and so are Moroka Swallows," he added.

Meanwhile, Leopards coach Sunday Chidzambwa was not happy with his side's performance and admitted that his team was not in the game.
