Lekgwathi praises Pirates for appointing Mbokazi vice-captain
'Sibisi has proven he's a good leader. He's a hard worker and he's now the [2024-2025 Betway Premiership] Defender of the Season.
'He's a disciplined boy and now he's also vocal, shouting instructions from the back. I am happy for him and we will also help him, as former captains, if he needs anything.'
'The Ghost' [Pirates' fans] expects the club to win their first league title since the 2011-2012 season. Lekgwathi wants those expectations lowered a margin, saying people should exercise patience with new coach Abdeslam Ouaddou.
'The coach is new, so people must not put pressure on him. We must just give him time to implement his philosophy.
'I know supporters' expectations are high, but, for me, winning the league would be a bonus for the coach, though it's our wish.'
