Why Kaizer Chiefs Struggled: Nabi's Tactics Explained

In this video, we take a deep dive into Nasreddine Nabi's tactical approach during Kaizer Chiefs' preseason match against Tanzanian giants Yanga SC. We analyze how Nabi might set up his team this season, focusing on his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation and the tactical principles he is looking to instill.

We break down the two main options Chiefs had to progress the ball against Yanga’s press, and how Nabi’s focus on playing out from the back is shaping up. From the struggles of the pivots under pressure to the role of the fullbacks, and the impact (or lack thereof) of key players like Mdu Tshabalala and Mfundo Vilakazi, this analysis covers it all.

Drop your thoughts in the comments—what areas do you think Nabi should focus on, and who do you see making the final starting XI? Let’s discuss!
