Miguel Cardoso has only been at Mamelodi Sundowns for three months but has seen enough to make public what is going on with the squad that he inherited.
Cardoso has had it smooth since taking over in December collecting 37 points from 42 while remaining alive in the Nedbank Cup and CAF Champions League.
The Portuguese has been on the bench in 20 games in all competitions, spreading minutes across his squad as wide as possible.

"The fixtures schedule has been quite hectic and challenging for all of us," he notes.
"It demands a lot of concentration and professionalism levels.
"The fact that the group is strong in terms of mentality helps a lot.
"So, I don't see players fighting between themselves for establishing themselves in the team because they know that they will have possibilities.
"Obviously, not everyone will have the same game-time in the end.
"There will be players that will be more used and others that will be less used, with other players more prominent in the team and others less.
"The question is that success will come probably because those with less game-time come in the right games and sustain the level.
"I'm happy with that.
"What the team needs is that when one player falls, another stands up, and that is the mentality of the group in that don't fight against each other but fight along each other.
"That is the spirit we have in the team.
"It is amazing that when one guy gets the Man of the Match, the other ones in the same position are the first ones to put it in the WhatsApp story highlighting the fact.
"It is fantastic.
"At many clubs, they don't do this because they don't want the other one to succeed.
"Here, they respect the options, and they are willing to be on the bench and enter to make the difference.
"They are willing to wait up to five matches to play one or two and make a difference.
"It comes from sharing values in the locker room.

"Obviously, there are moments when you need to have that one star when things go one side, but that star comes from hard work and quality.
"That is what we are trying do but still far from where we want to be," says Cardoso.
