The Bucs club boss indicated that under-fire caretaker coach Augusto Palacios should solve any issues which may exist within the team.

“It’s easy to point fingers at Palacios because we are losing. You forget that he delivered us trophies when he came as a buffer,” Khoza stressed.

“Palacios is a Professor. That’s why he must guide us. Complaining of things you should be controlling shows your shortcomings.”

“You need to factor in different things when you release a player. There needs to be a fuller understanding in these things,” he continued.

“I don’t buy the story that Palacios is complaining about discipline in the team. If there’s a problem then he must fix it.”
