Banyana Banyana players celebrate a goal
“The expectations never stop; it’s always been there. I think already the expectations getting into the national team is high, and obviously we know we are a results-driven country and you know the fans don’t expect anything less and all I can say is that this team will put in that effort, will put in that performance to possibly get the result that we want,” says Ellis.
“They might not have won the world cup but for me they still ranked up there with the best. Every team goes through a little bit of a transition period, and playing at home and after the world cup and weren’t happy so they would want to go out and put up a performance that will really motivate our players to put out a similar performance to get a positive result,” Ellis added.
“It’s important that players train at a certain level every day not having to worry about going to work. Making sure that they can train and making sure they concentrate on football itself and having a professional league you also going to attract players from the continent and hopefully the better players. It will also increase the level of the league. I think it’s important that we get that league going,” Ellis elaborates.
