The Sundowns mentor did not hit the note he thought would ring around Loftus Versfeld Stadium in his side's last game of the previous year, and that has led him to let supporters into the tracks of his thoughts and heart.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/rhulani-mokwena-the-cloth-make-up-of-the-mamelodi-sundowns-coach-post-african-football-league-success/blt7cf609cc73359932" target="_blank">Mokwena is usually a jolly person in his press conferences</a>, but last time out, he was visibly irked by the officiating on the day and admitted to being a little grumpy towards members of the media.This prompted Mokwena to go on a rather emotional journey where he opened up about his feelings towards the game he claims to lose plenty of sleep for.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

"Sorry, I’m feeling a bit grumpy and I didn’t give you the best press conference, but this is my mood for the last couple of weeks now, but anyway this is football," Mokwena told members of the media after his side dropped points in the PSL race last week."This game of football, sometimes or every single day, it eats away my passion for this game and I'm slowly losing my love for this game and it's very sad."It is very sad because I was born into football and I look at how this game is going and I say to myself, 'maybe I'm not cut out for this game', I'm in a space where I say to myself, 'maybe I'm not good enough to be a football coach'".

WHAT MOKWENA SAID 

Mokwena said while he might struggle to switch off from football, he will give his players three weeks off as club football goes into a mini break in the wake of the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-sg/caf-africa-cup-of-nations/68zplepppndhl8bfdvgy9vgu1" target="_blank">Africa Cup of Nations</a>.Sundowns, however, have 11 players in the continental showpiece including <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/hugo-broos-will-search-for-mamelodi-sundowns-captain-themba-zwane-s-replacement-after-the-africa-cup-of-nations/bltd4464de411a197ae#cs8eabd9b7a10dfcf5" target="_blank">Themba Zwane</a>, Teboho Mokoena and Peter Shalulile.
