IN response to Omalayitsha blockade Beitbridge to protest border closure, JOE NDLOVU says: Those are the results of being led by an incompetent government. How can you close the border to your own citizens? Zimbabwe is no doubt on autopilot.
IN response to Khama calls it quits, ROBIN JOHN WASTERFALL says: I appreciate Warriors midfielder Khama Billiat’s service to the national team even in the midst of difficulties in football administration and the coaching department. He tried his best. He gave his best to the Warriors cause. He played his part with distinction. Now the baton has been passed on to the next generation. All the best Khama!
NKANYISO MTHUNZI says: There is nothing like giving a chance to youngsters. I don’t believe in that. Khama Billiat should have played as long as his legs carry him. In football, we deal with current players and youngsters must sell themselves by qualifying for tournaments such as Under-17 World Cup and Olympics. That is when we can talk about giving them a chance. That is why England has gone for so long without a trophy while Italy and “elders” won the 2006 World Cup and Euro 2020. With young stars, England has 55 years of silverware drought. You can’t say a 31-year-old player is too old, we now need fresh legs when Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Thiago Silva, Pepe and Luca Modric are still playing at the highest level.
MAI RURU says: Khama Billiat is retiring because of a failed World Cup campaign. If Zimbabwe had progressed to the next round of qualifiers, was he going to retire? Khama has sold out. How can he decide to retire from international football a few months before the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) finals. This will no doubt throw the Warriors’ Afcon preparations into disarray. Why can’t he wait for the Afcon final in Cameroon? Pride is running faster than him.
SOLOMON MAWERE says: Not even one day was Khama Billiat impressive to me. I was always disappointed by his selfishness and lack of accuracy as well as not being result oriented. Anyway, go well and thanks for clearing the way for the younger generation.
INNOCENT KATSIKA says: He was a player and half. Forever grateful. He was no doubt one of the great players of his generation. We will always cherish his moments in Zimbabwean colours.
