“We need to change to get a different outcome, it cannot be done overnight, we are trying our best at the moment three to four weeks I had been here.

New recruit Ngele said he was looking forward to showcasing his skills at Chippa this season.

“I think it’s going to be a tough season, we have a new coach, new players, we must understand each other as soon as we can so that we can win games,” said Ngele.
