Abdeslami Ouaddou, head coach of Orlando Pirates, says he is applying a more patient approach to the start of the season.
Orlando Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou says he has learnt from last season’s early struggles and is taking a more patient approach with his new signings as the club begins another demanding campaign.
The Buccaneers strengthened their squad significantly during the off-season, bringing in no fewer than nine new players as they prepare to compete across domestic competitions and the CAF Champions League.
Four of those new arrivals made their official debuts in Saturday’s victory over newly promoted Milford FC, with the players introduced in the second half as Pirates looked to secure maximum points on the opening day of the Betway Premiership season.
The approach marks a change from last season, when Ouaddou was quick to integrate new players into his starting line-up after taking over from Jose Riveiro.
