My Best team
Definitely Dynamos for the winning culture we always had in that team. They are one of the best teams in Africa and they gave me a platform to showcase my skills. Their management is always excellent and they remain a menace to other local teams.
My Best Stadium
Egypt’s Nasser Stadium is well built and has a good turf. I enjoyed playing there because it made my job easier.
My Best Defence partner
I played alongside many great defenders at Dynamos but Ernest Mutano really made me feel comfortable on the pitch. He knew exactly the type of defender I was. We created a solid defence that gave many strikers sleepless nights.
My Best sharpshooter
There are so many that I can mention but Shackman Tauro could have played in any league. In those days, it was difficult for locals to play abroad. He had talent, speed and great finishing.
My Best-ever
Zimbabwean player
George Shaya is arguably the best striker Zimbabwe has ever had. He banged in goals like no body’s business. He was skillful, clever and unstoppable when he approached the goals.
My Best coach
There are two – Allan Dave and Mick Pool. Those two taught me a lot about football. They were excellent motivators and tacticians, who always wanted a player to succeed.
My Best game
It was a 1981 African Champions league game against Nigeria’s Shooting Stars, which we won 3-0.
My Best Dynamos 11

The first coach to win any kind of trophy for Zimbabwe after Independence was Mick Poole at Rufaro Stadium against Kenya In the COSAFA tournament which we hosted in 1985. Misheck Marimo [now Chidzambga] was the captain, and his central defence partner was ernest Mutano.Ephert Lungu was on the bench.
In the Misheck’s Dynamos Best 11, I list a few corrections:Edward Katsvere [not Katsere], Kembo [not Tembo] Chunga. There was no Edward Kateya at any time at DeMbare.
I hope this helps a bit.
