“If you lose two of three matches maybe you will find yourself at number 12. If a player misses a chance, I didn't go to him to shout but what I want is a sense of responsibility.
“Even time I say to the players that they must take responsibility; if you lose, its football. If your son comes back from school and every time the result is zero, maybe he needs more hours with the professor \[teacher\].”
Amakhosi have another tricky game this weekend against Richards Bay at King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium in Durban on Sunday.
“We need to analyse the situation because we have another important game this weekend and I will talk with my players to give them motivation so they can concentrate on preparation.
“We have to prepare for this game like it is a final and hopefully we will win the three points. It is not dramatic, guys, but I am sorry for the fans, myself and the staff.”
Chiefs went into the City match on the back of a league win against Magesi FC last week and the weekend's Nedbank Cup last 16 victory against Stellenbosch FC and had high hopes of a third win in succession.
