Hello and welcome to the TFO Football Podcast. I'm John McKenzie, but I'm not joined as

always by my good friend and producer Mike Zimmerman because my good friend and producer

Mike Zimmerman is feeling a little bit under the weather today, but that doesn't mean

to say that you shouldn't enjoy what we have in store for you because this week we have

an incredible guest for you to get your ears around. Rolani McQuenna is the manager of

Mamalody Sundowns, who currently find themselves top of the DSTV Premiership, the top division

of South Africa Football. He was good enough to join as a few days before his team competed

in the MTN8 final, again which will have happened by the time this recording goes live,

and he talked to us about his route into coaching, his tactical identity at Mamalody Sundowns,

the Caff Champions League and its importance within South African Football, and inevitably

what his future looks like in coaching, but as always you don't want to hear me talking

about what the episode is about, you want to listen to it for yourself, and so without

further ado, here's Rolani McQuenna, manager of Mamalody Sundowns.

Rolani McQuenna, welcome to the TFO Podcast, it's great having you on.

Thanks John, and I really appreciate the opportunity, great to be with you, and the incredible

volume that you also have with regards to your subscribers and a lot of the technocrats

that listen to the podcast, I'm really, really excited for this podcast, thanks for the

opportunity.

You're very welcome, and I do need to thank you profusely for coming on this week because

I know you have a really important game coming up this weekend against Orlando Pirates

in the final of the MTN 8, for which I should say to our listeners this game will already

have taken place by the time the episode drops, so Rolani, I really appreciate your time,
