Coach Wedson Nyirenda has declared that Chipolopolo is ripe to start winning trophies.

Nyirenda was installed as Zambia coach on the premise of building a strong team.

The trainer said the process of building a strong Zambia team is nearly complete.

“I think everyone now can see that our game is moving in the right direction. We are almost done with the building,” Nyirenda said.

“All we need now is to starting getting the trophies. We have what it take to get what we need. We have a team in place,” he said.

Nyirenda is currently preparing the locally based Chipolopolo team for next month’s CHAN coming up in Morocco.

Zambia will tackle Ivory Coast, Uganda and Namibia in Group B at CHAN which runs from January 13 to February 4.

  1. Really laughable …Ba Wedson please show me a manager who is not ready to win trophies? I will show you an unemployed coach.

  2. Ba Wedson ifyakulandalanda. Just go and win the trophies. It looks like you will only be able to do that in your imaginations since you ve been knocked out of all competitions

  3. Solving our defensive frailties is one challenge that we still to solve, we concede too many goals due to loose marking & failure to track the movement of opposition players, we need to identify the heirs to Stopilla Sunzu, Ziyo Tembo & Nathan Sinkala, that is your main challenge coach, Adrian Chama is not one for the future either!

    By casting our net wide across Zambia & even among our various exports, avoiding any bias, and by picking players purely on merit, AFCON 2019 & 2021 + Qatar 2022 can become realistic targets…

    • Forget about those tournaments you need to plan long term 10 years backed with facilities at home.. Germany is where it is due to planning!!

    • I agree with you bro. I have always talked about chama ,Malama andj kapumbu, please wedson look for defenders . These have been costing us games

  4. Please listen.. 99% of us fans n Zambians can see that we don’t have real defenders, surely can’t u the coach see this which is costing us victories.. U ve surely done well in both midfield n striking departments @100% but find defensive weapons in Nathan Sinkala etc..cast the net wide n u will find defensive weapons in both lower n premier league.. All in All job well done Ba WADA

  5. Rome wasn’t built in a day.Don’t be discouraged as you rebuild a strong competitive squad. Believe in yourself.Watch the previous matches and work on your weaknesses.Good luck coach.

  6. The chama,sunzu, kapumbu & ziyo type of defending isn’t good were all the sudden they loose concetration on the midist of a tough game awee guys like guys have said nyirenda must do a lot of work on the defensive side
