How Sundowns’ Sphelele Mkhulise plans to improve his game

Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Sphelele Mkhulise says he needs to improve certain aspects of his performance in the DStv Premiership.

Sphelele Mkhulise was reflecting on his Man of the Match display as Mamelodi Sundowns beat TS Galaxy 2-1 a midweek encounter.

“I am happy about my performance from the last game,” Sphelele Mkhulise told Sundowns website.

 “However, I still need to improve in certain areas of my game.”

However, Sphelele Mkhulise did not specify the areas of improvement.

“To do that I have to analyze my performances from the past fixture to see where I need to put in more work in order to be ready for the next game,” he said.

Sphelele Mkhulise spoke to Sundowns website ahead of the game against Sekhukhune United on Saturday, January 28 at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.

MIDFIELDER INSISTS SUNDOWNS ARE HUNGRY FOR MORE POINTS

The 26-year-old insists the runaway DStv Premiership leaders are hungry for more points.

He was commenting on their approach to the game against Sekhukhune at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.

The exciting midfielder said all players want to achieve more milestones this campaign.

“We are grateful for the points we have been able to collect,” he added. “We want to continue collecting points from all the games we still have ahead.”

Mkhulise then explained how Sundowns players are making the most of rotation.

“I am happy that all those who got an opportunity to play, performed really well on the pitch,” the Masandawana said.

The Tshwane giants have won 13 games on the bounce this campaign.

They lead the chart with 19 points ahead of second-placed Richards Bay. However, the rookies have two games in hand.

Masandawana went to the match against Galaxy after playing seven games in less than 30 days.

The matches spanned between 30 December 2023 and 24 January 2023.

The crammed nature of the fixtures has left Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena with no choice. He is reshuffling his squad through rotation.
