'I Don't Need to Convince Anybody' - Benni McCarthy Responds as Harambee Stars Duo Pull Out of CHAN
Benni McCarthy has responded to the CHAN withdrawals of the Harambee Stars duo by stressing that national team duty should come first.
“But someone else might not be as fortunate as I. Somebody else might probably deal with emotions, or deal with stress, or deal with heartbreak completely differently.”
Benni McCarthy explained that he takes issue when others pick on his players or staff, because he understands that not everyone handles challenges in the same way.
The former Manchester United attacking coach pointed out that certain criticism can completely break someone who may not have the strength to endure it.
“So that’s why, when it comes to it – if you mess with my players, my people, then you mess with the lion, and yeah, and then I really go in. But if it’s me, then I’m okay,” Benni McCarthy added.
“I’ve got a bulletproof vest on, so you can shoot as much as you want. It’s going to hurt, but it won’t get through.”
His warning comes just before Harambee Stars begin their CECAFA Four Nations tournament and the African Nations Championship campaigns.
