Aubrey Modiba says Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena is 'a bit crazy' when it comes to his obsession with improving his knowledge of the game on a daily basis.

It hasn’t taken long for Mokwena to imprint his modern philosophy since taking over the Sundowns side as head coach and six straight wins with only one goal conceded bears testimony to that.
Mokwena’s impact at the helm of the Brazilians has certainly left an impression on left-sided utility player Modiba, who was answering questions on his experience under Mokwena, describing the young coach as ‘crazy about football’ as he constantly looks to introduce new elements into the game.
“He is very crazy, he doesn’t sleep. He watches one game more than three times. He makes corrections for each and every player. He is crazy about football, and he works really hard. Sometimes he leaves the office, I don’t know at what time after training, the way he’s so invested,” he told journalists at the Nedbank Cup draw in Sandton.
“It’s a great thing to see because as a player you want to be in that space of being crazy about football.
“He always tells us that we don’t watch football. He can watch a league in India and when he sees something that he likes, he shows us how it’s done, and he is always looking for new things. It’s nice to see that he is crazy about football.”
