TS Galaxy head coach Sead Ramovic appeared to take a dig at Mamelodi Sundowns over their long injury list, following a series of spats between him and his counterpart Rulani Mokwena through the media.

Ramovic caught the attention of and irked Mokwena in December year after he suggested that the young tactician "disrespected" his own players for making "excuses" of not having Bafana Bafana players after the Rockets knocked out the Brazilians out of the Carling Knockout.

Mokwena revealed recently that he called the the German-born coach to address the matter with him personally, because he took offense and Ramovic also lifted the lid on the conversation with the 37-year-old to the media last week, after he alleged that Mokwena was yelling at him with F-words and threats.

Following Galaxy's 2-1 win over Golden Arrows in the Nedbank Cup over the weekend, Ramovic complimented his side's "periodization" for not having injuries unlike "other teams" with 38 players and ten injuries, speaking to journalists in a post-match press conference.

"I would like to say if you have a small squad, we have 23 players and if no one got injured, no muscle problems, no nothing, it speaks to our periodization, it's beautiful," Ramovic said to reporters after his side booked a spot in the Nedbank Cup last 16.

"Because we don't have 38 players where we can...imagine we also get ten players injured like other clubs, I don't want to name the clubs," he said.

Kickoff reported last week that Sundowns had 11 players out injured prior to their CAF Champions League game against Nouadhibou, although some recovered to feature.

Meanwhile, the former Wolfsburg goalkeeper also cried foul of the "experts" in the media not giving his team enough attention and credit.

"We won five games in a row, I have to give credit to my players. Left-back Solomon (Letsoenyo) has six assists. I think my players deserve credit and attention from experts, if they are experts I don't know," Ramovic continued.

"I don't know how they don't see these kind of things, it's not easy to win five games in a row. If my players don't get attention now, when are they going to get it then? If other teams would win five games in a row it will be like headlines and headlines," he added.

Galaxy won five out of six games in all competitions but only four in a row, with their only blemish in that run being a narrow 1-0 loss to Orlando Pirates.
