  1. Ba Beston Chambeshi you need develop 2 players to be remembered for.
    1. Brian Mwila as defensive midfielder. or best make him a formidable goalkeeper.
    2. Benson Sakala is obvious, don’t sweat about it, he is the best Zambian player at moment and let him take over defense as Central defender.
    Others:
    Rodrick Kabwe- Defensive midfielder partnering Brian.
