“What I’d love to see is him adjusting quicker because when am I going to teach Brockie to score goals? We will deliver the ball to him and he will do the job. All he has to do is to free himself and make sure he is not disturbed and I think we know what will happen,” said Mosimane.
“He is not the kind of striker that plays alone. Those who play alone should be very quick to decide on their own or should be able to dribble their way out of trouble, and Brockie is not like that,” he added.

Brockie says he cannot wait to make his debut for the Brazilians as he has been observing the team’s style of play in the build up to his protracted transfer from SuperSport United.
“I’ve been watching Sundowns games on television for a long time now and the last couple of games I’ve watched from my couch and trying to get on the end of the crosses from my couch,” Brockie said.
“It is exciting to see how many opportunities they create. It is a relief to really be here.”
“There’s a lot of attacking talent and a lot of depth in this squad. I just have to find my opportunity and when I get it I have to make the most of it. It is up to me now, the club has shown good faith and I need to repay them,” the Kiwi added.
Having scored 54 goals for United in 81 appearances, the 30-year-old has not found the back of the net since October. Popular belief is that the transfer saga may have proved to be a negative effect on his game. However, Brockie begs to differ.
“I don’t think it has had anything to do with that, I think it is because the opportunities to score goals had sort of dried up a bit and we weren’t really creating any chances.”
