I've now seen a media outlet comparing our superb South African centre half olwethu makhanya's style with the Italian legendary defender and world class defender Paolo Maldini π².

SWS i love the positivity, but honestly I feel the comparisons are getting ridiculous.
The young boy has not even had 6 months yet.
I think only 11 games and not all we're standout performances.
He has talent definitely but let's keep things realistic.

NATO maka has been the standout performer every single time I've watched us play and he's been in the team
The boys a star.

Give the boy a chance, he has only arrived, last thing he needs is all these comparisons.
Let's see how he performs under pressure and wins something. Like semi and final of league cup for starters
Appears to have all the tools required to succeed but only time will tell.

Its feels like we are walking in tocmind trap games makhanya looks a decent football player but most games the oppostion is poor
We have the meltdown across the city strangely we heard the same last season
If we can keep clean sheets and hopefully go on to win the league then i will buy into the hype9.

Agreed Stevie, he's barely miss placed a pass. Teddy, Makhanya is far better than a decent footballer, we must be watching different players.

I think what the press , I've not seen the article, are doing the same as myself here, they're comparing styles Perhaps?
I don't think they're saying he's the new maldini.

Maldini π€ͺ
Let makhanya be makhanya, these comparisons are ridiculous, especially after around 13/14 games for Rangers 4 of which we we were put out of 2 competitions, drew with Dundee utd, beat of hibs.
Am I blaming makhanya for those games? Certainly not, but lbh he wasn't very good, just like the rest of the team, so what are these comparisons based on 7/8 games, in spl? Think the article is looking for clicks tbh.
