BERNARD PARKER
You can not argue with Bernard Parker’s objective stats as a Kaizer Chiefs participant. After all, it’s targets that win video games, and Parker did loads of that for the Glamour Boys.

COLLINS MBESUMA

All-in-all, Mbesuma bagged 55 targets in 173 DStv Premiership clashes. 25 targets in the 2004-05 season stays an all-time document that’s unlikely to be touched. And it belongs to Mbesuma.

Shoes was an AFCON winner in 1996 after which represented South Africa at France 1998. Are there any modern equivalents of his talent set? What a gifted footballer. Pure silk and talent.
