Former Kaizer Chiefs defender Tsepo Masilela has expressed his views on the treatment Kingston Nkhatha received from Amakhosi supporters. Despite winning three trophies under coach Stuart Baxter, Nkhatha was frequently booed due to his lack of goals. Masilela explained that while Nkhatha didn’t score many goals, he played an essential role in Baxter’s system, contributing with his pressing and creating opportunities for his teammates.

Masilela emphasized that Baxter’s coaching style was key to Nkhatha’s success, as the team had a clear philosophy and consistent lineup. Despite fan criticism, Baxter trusted Nkhatha’s abilities and included him in most matches.
