But log leaders Kaizer Chiefs might steal a leaf out of that playbook and introduce their own version of the magical trio‚ using two of the successful Sundowns ingredients.
Billiat and Castro reprised their partnership on Saturday as Chiefs overcame Cape Town City in the Telkom Knockout and Samir Nurkovic came on as a third striker to score as the visitors came from a goal down to win on post-match penalties. It suggested the birth of the ‘CBN’‚ something coach Ernst Middendorp hinted he thought was possible too.
“Why not Leonard‚ Samir and Khama … we will see‚” he said before quickly warning that if he played three in attack they would have to work to help out the defence too‚ probably a veiled warning to Billiat about his workrate on the back foot.“As long as we understand our roles but I’m always saying that everybody is part of the team in terms of forward movement and in terms of defence.Middendorp said selection upfront for Chiefs was now a pleasant headache.
