Bongani Khumalo

[S-11]

Is Simon Dawkins still around? I think he was playing with the U21 when he was aged 37 :walker:

I think we sold him to Derby.

Can't believe this club legend only has 12 replies to his thread. For shame.

GOAT thread

 

[Jayc1]

This 21 second video is the only Spurs related video I could find of him, i didn't watch it but i read the title

It's just....a picture....the mystery continues.

Like Lamela and Sherwood all over again. Is he even alive!?

How much are we paying this fella?

Almost nothing, I'd imagine. Was just a deal to get South Africans interested in our club. He was playing in SA before he joined us, so even 3-5k a week would probably seem like a huge amount to him.

...so I can't have been the only one to see this thread resurrected and assumed he'd either retired, been found wandering the streets homeless and disorientated, or a bit of both!

Starting on Sunday I think. Nice easy game for him to find his feet.

I think Levy has Keyser Sozed us.

The greatest trick Bongani ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that, poof. He's gone.

That's still quite a lot.

We're not paying him that

 

[shawry1882]

Mmmmm....how is really going ?
We are quick to right him off yet thru injury, loans we have seen him perform.
I wonder if Poch sees otherwise for next yr ?
Not my decision, don't know the guy, regardless he is another asset to Levy (albeit an underperforming asset - then again we have a few).

So two internationals who have had their careers in England crippled by a knee injury went at it and ours won the battle! Long live the Bong

Actually dominated Falcao last night. It was incredible.

Will he get a chance in the first team under Poch do you think?

 

[VirginiaSpur]

So Bongani Khumalo is to our academy what Kevin Costner was to the Durham Bulls?

Pass the Bong!

I have absolutely no issues with Khumalo picking up a few thousand a week (ie next to nothing, in football terms) if the club consider him to be a useful mentor for the youth lads. There is no way he'd consistently be our U21 captain if he wasn't great behind the scenes and guiding the youngsters, particularly the defenders. And I will completely trust the club's judgement on that!

Carter-Vickers looked very comfortable alongside him at CB last night. Playing alongside someone of his experience should help him develop nicely.

I can also only assume that Khumalo is content to have the role he has at the club, so it's a no lose situation really.

If he is happy to play that mentor role I'd be more than happy for him to get Europa League & early round cup games!

 

[ArcspacE]

Those reports of him dominating Falcao (admittingly did well the last hour) has left out the part where did two huge mistakes that gave united clear run at our goal and almost score.

Sounds like JDK is nailed on for a journo post a SSN then

For reference you can watch in the match thread for the U21 game.

One of the posts were:

Khumalo ochfacepalm:

That was before he had Falcao in his pocket.
