Stuart Baxter was impressed with Keagan Dolly’s performance during the game against SuperSport United on Sunday, saying there is a lot more to his game than what meets the eye.
Dolly has been doing exceptional work since he arrived at the club at the start of the season, having scored three goals and assisted four more in nine games in all competitions so far.
The Kaizer Chiefs coach was full of praise for his left-footed star as he assisted both of Bernard Parker’s goals in his brace.
“The last two games Keagan has been excellent, and it’s easy to say he’s been excellent because people see that he gets on the ball, and he twists and turns, and he gets away from people,” Baxter told iDiski Times in a press conference.
“And he puts people in for 35 metres, it’s easy to see that for Keagan Dolly who has played in France, he’s coming back now to embellish the PSL, coming back and puts in a real shift in terms of his pressing.
“His pressing technique and his pressing intensity is excellent. And so people maybe don’t see that but for me, he is giving more real performances, it’s not just the eye-catching things. He has been excellent in the last two games.”
Amakhosi are now in position five with 12 points after they played 8 games, having drawn three, won three and lost two so far.
Chiefs host Stellenbosch FC at FNB Stadium on Tuesday, 2 November in their next DStv Premiership match.
