We have seen KK11, FTJ11, LPM11, and now RB11. The ball is your court Bonetti, or is Butti…
“The six playerz are all from Zesco United while Power Dynamos have two and the remainder from Red Arrows.” What iz the meaning of this?
Slip of the eyez; “Three of the six playerz…..” The meaning iz straight forward.
NO.2 it says “Three of the six players are all from Zesco United while power Dynamos have two and the remainder from Red Arrows”
is it the english that you cant read or what?
NO.2 you have put on your reading gear, thats good!!!
lets go zambia,chipolopolo iye chipolopolo iye\:d/\:d/\:d/
give this Italian defender enough time and space to do his job…evaluate later after seeeing the results.
otherwise, he’s on a right track.
include mbesuma as well,he is a good player only he hasnt got a watch to keep timings
i am worried about the many players in our team that have NO clubs,in other countries if you dont play regular first team football you cant be picked for the National team.
