Mngqithi's rotation is boosting competition

Manqoba Mngqithi has rotated his team so far this season by giving playing opportunities to fringe players who form part of his star-studded squad.

The Brazilians' midfielder Neo Maema (below) admits that getting back to his best is a challenge as he's constantly in and out of the team. He has only made six appearances for the Tshwane giants in all competitions this term.

"Individually, I would say it's very difficult but the coaches made it very clear that we have a very big squad and we have a lot of competitions to play," Maema said.
