While the supporters' choice of expression of their frustrations have been condemned, particularly by the SABC Sport team on SoccerZone this past Monday, Ntseki is slightly more empathetic towards those feeling the disappointment at the team's recent results.

"I think the disappointment of losing a game, when everybody was expecting the team – after we've won against Cape Town City – to win against TS Galaxy, it is also a question of we're being very impatient because things have not been going our way," Ntseki told the media.

"So, in a game like that, when you lose a game like that, you become emotional [and] you become irrational, and you end up doing things that are not 'Khosified', you end up doing things that are not Kaizer Chiefs' [way of doing things]."

The former Chiefs head of technical, however, remains undeterred in his mission to return the club to its glory days, and looks to the likes of Sir Alex Ferguson and Pitso Mosimane's experiences for inspiration to forge ahead through the turbulence.

"I always look back at the people who came before me. I always look back at some of the top coaches in the world – Alex Ferguson, when he joined Man United, they were not happy with him in the first season, but he became the most successful coach at the club," he added.

"You also look at Pep Guardiola, when he joined Man City, the first year was not a very good year but he ended up becoming the best coach in the world, and Man City is currently the best team in the world.

"You look at what happened to our own coach Pitso Mosimane, when he was at [Mamelodi] Sundowns, I think it shows that at times when we're not patient with ourselves and we end up becoming, maybe, too hard on ourselves, things might not go according to plan."
