Both teams got what they needed after Sibusiso Vilakazi this week went to Mamelodi Sundowns and Cuthbert Malajila and Mogakolodi Ngele travelled in the other direction down the N1 to Bidvest Wits. The disappointing aspect of the 2015-16 season was that Wits capitulated too easily in the end to a Sundowns side that harkened to their dreamy combinations of the 1990s. Downs’ signing of Vilakazi – where he is likely to fill the hole left by Bongani Zungu’s departure to Portugal‚ playing just in front of Hlompo Kekana in central midfield – should guarantee that Pitso Mosimane’s men retain their Premier League title. But Malajila and Ngele’s acquisition by Gavin Hunt at Wits have given the Clever Boys a frontline that finally has some real teeth to it. It might even be enough to finally push Wits over the line for a first championship after finishes of third‚ third and second under Hunt. Either way‚ both sides’ respective acquisitions – all three of whom to varying degrees had not given off their best in the past season‚ which was compounded by a lack of game time – can bring genuine quality to much-needed new environments.
