Kaizer Chiefs captain Keagan Dolly has revealed what it will take to help talisman Khama Billiat regain his form at the club.
Billiat have been struggling since the beginning of the 2022/23 DStv Premiership season.
The main reasons for Billiat’s struggles are due to lack of form and injuries.
He has only made 10 appearances so far in all competitions; he is yet to find a back of the net and has provided three assists.
Dolly however, still believes Billiat is a top quality player who is just going through a rough patch. He therefore tipped Billiat to come back strong and prove his doubters wrong.
DOLLY ON BILLIAT
“I think with Khama [Billiat] he’s been long in the game he’s experienced,” Dolly told the media at the Soweto derby presser in Johannesburg.
“He has experienced times like this [before] where he was struggling to score goals for the club.
“I think he came out on top all the time, we all know Khama Billiat is a quality player. We all know his strengths. I think it’s just going to take one game and one goal that’s going to change this.”
Dolly further likened Billiat’s conundrum to his situation. Dolly also started the season slowly and faced a lot of criticism. But he regained form and started performing for the club.
In the 2022/23 campaign, Dolly has featured in 15 games in all competitions, scoring four goals and registering an assist.
“I think for myself as well I started the season very slow, but look I started scoring goals, I started getting my confidence back. I think one goal will help Khama,” Dolly added.
With striker Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana a doubt for the Soweto derby on Saturday, Billiat may feature for Amakhosi in front to help in attack.
Kickoff at FNB Stadium is at 15:30.
