Renowned Malawian sports analyst Peter Fote has said FCB Nyasa Big Bullets made one of their smartest moves by hiring Peter Mponda as part of the coaching panel, stressing that the former Flames captain has played a crucial role in keeping the team competitive this season.

Fote noted that despite the team’s inconsistent form, Bullets’ current position in the TNM Super League is largely due to Mponda’s tactical influence and experience.

“Bullets don’t have top-quality players at the moment who can individually change games like in previous seasons.If the team is still doing well and competing for the title, it’s because of Mponda’s football intelligence and guidance,”He explained.

He was commenting on Bullets’ third defeat of the season against their arch-rivals Mighty Wanderers, a result that has intensified pressure on the defending champions as the league enters its decisive phase.

Fote further observed that Bullets’ struggles this season are linked to the departure of key players such as Nickson Nyasulu, Lloyd Aaron, Clyde Senaji, Ronald Chitiyo Precious Phiri and Gomezgani Chirwa, whose absence has left noticeable gaps in the squad.

“Wanderers have been building their team for the past three years. They are now reaping the rewards of that consistency.Bullets, on the other hand, are in a rebuilding phase, and that’s why comparisons between the two teams are unfair at this point,”he added.

Despite the setbacks, Fote expressed optimism that with Mponda’s technical expertise and leadership, Bullets can still finish the season strongly if they maintain focus and unity in the remaining fixtures.

Meanwhile, Bullets fans have shown mixed reactions some praising Mponda’s impact, while others are calling for the club to sign new players to strengthen the squad ahead of next season.

Fote concluded by urging Bullets’ management to give the technical team full support as they work to restore the team’s dominance in Malawian football.
