That said, the debate around who should occupy the number 10 role for Bafana Bafana at the FIFA World Cup in two months time is entirely valid. On current form, Mofokeng has earned the right to be that creative focal point. His influence on games is growing, and he looks ready to embrace that responsibility on the international stage.
Zwane is a rare talent, arguably one of a kind and the PSL may not see another player quite like him for some time. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore Mofokengs rise. He possesses all the attributes of a generational talent as he continues to deliver performances that match the hype.
Mofokeng is the face of Orlando PiratesMofokeng is no doubt the new face of Orlando Pirates. It has been a long time since a player has so fully embodied what it means to be a Buccaneer, arguably not since the days of Oupa Manyisa. One could point to Thembinkosi Lorch as a similar figure, but he operated in Pirates teams that never quite reached the heights of Manyisas era.
