LAST week, I received an e-mail from Abel “Ngugi” Milanzi, a primary school teacher at Gwenzi School in Zhombe. He asked me to nominate my finest-ever Warriors 18-man squad since 1980. Boy, oh boy, what a difficult task! But after tossing and turning in my bed for a couple of nights, I finally came up with a starting XI and seven substitutes’ line-up who, I must stress, is NOT a Zimbabwe Players finest-ever outfit since Independence but simply the best players who, according to me, excelled in a Warriors jersey. My starting line-up is based on a 4-4-2 formation: Goalkeeper: Japhet M’parutsa. Defenders: Mercedes Sibanda (late), Ephert Lungu, Ephraim Chawanda (captain), Oliver Kateya (late). Midfielders: Benjamin Nkonjera (late), John Phiri, Stanley Ndunduma (late), Norman Mapeza. Forwards: Peter Ndlovu, Knowledge Musona. Subs: Bruce Grobbelaar, James Takavada, Francis Shonhayi, Wonder Phiri, Ronald Sibanda, Agent Sawu, Adam Ndlovu (late). Head Coach: Sunday Chidzambwa. Assistant Coach: Charles Mhlauri. Like I said earlier, it wasn’t easy! - Written By Charles Mabika. See more at: nehandaradio/2014/09/01/finally-musona-has-seen-the-light-charles-mabika/#sthash.oGFb7tDc.dpuf
