After that long term injury of yours, U were not the same player that we used to watch hence you have to make way for the more energitic ones, I hope Thwala will follow suit. Oh no before I forget, thanks for your contribution that eventually helped u to achieve more than u did in your previous teams.

Scrapped car get wriiten off at some stage, you can't continue paying licence for a scrap vehicle and some go to scrap heap to be broken into pieces, hope you are not scrapped. What happened to the armed robbery case Mr Mhlongo? it helps to be with Khoza at your side, dont do it at Stars because you are on your own.

I think it's a good move for him at his age because at stars one can play forever, remember Willem Jackson?

One of the best defensive midlefielders mzatsi had. You left bafana ba style at your prime and you did your part at Bucs, unfortunately injury cost you. you stil have a lot to offer good luck in your new team.

You unselfishly brought up Jali and the youngster publicly acknowledged your mentoring. Then you also mentored Manyisa. Both have since featured in the National squad. Go well and mentor more jewels at Stars. Thanks for your mentoring.

I can only call you a Star if you have beaten Chiefs apparently in all the games you played against Chief your team lost them, starting from Wits, Sundown and Pirates. A player is only good if he beats Chiefs, so to me you are just average. Good Luck though, if you are finished please retire and give youngstars a chance, dont be like Nasif Morris, he was exposed last week by Chippa young players.

Good luck Mayanga. You are a true leader; Dikwena will gain massively from your inputs. Before you came to Pirates, we were leaderless and rudderless. You came in and instilled the winning mentality from Sundowns into our players. We went on to win our first league title in seven years and first cup title in ten years. We didnt stop there; we won treble...and another treble. I wish you all the best in your new team. May you win one cup for Dikwena and leave the rest for Pirates.

It is strange that people don't realise how good the player was in his days. Benson got hurt while on duty,doing the best for the team he liked most. Well, times like these do come in life. Those who don't realise what Benson did to Pirates, are they go a say the same thing if Happy Held suffered the same fate as Benson? Please guys send the man away with blessings, he's putting bread in the table for his family. Wish you all the best Mr Mhlongo, you did your best.

I think it is a good move for Benson to go and get a game time elsewhere if Pirates does not want his services; otherwise I would keep him if I was a coach because of his work rate!!!
