Mamelodi Sundowns captain Ronwen Williams has responded to critics over the side's poor start of two defeats in three matches this season and talk of failing to defend the league title.
By their high standards, the Tshwane giants have had something of a disastrous start to the campaign, with their woes exacerbated by an exit from the MTN8.

However, in what could be a turn of the tide, Sundowns made easy work of Mbabane Swallows in the first leg of their CAF Champions League second Preliminary round tie over the weekend with a 4-0 hammering.
Speaking to SuperSport TV, Williams said the best was yet to come from the Manqoba Mngqithi-led outfit.
"Good luck to them [those who think they can overthrow Sundowns], because what happened now is a setback for even greater things to come, trust me," said the shot-stopper.
"I can see the anger, I can see the sadness, the devastation in the players' faces. The way we are training now, we are one step away from being the Sundowns that everyone knows.
"I think that defeat, getting kicked out of the MTN8, has ignited something in us again that has not been there because of the amount of football we've also played [last season].
"I think now people are going to see Mamelodi Sundowns."
