Eric Tinkler has a pleasant dilemma in deciding who will lead the Orlando Pirates' attack when they meet Kaizer Chiefs in the Nedbank Cup on Saturday. Thamsanqa Gabuza, Lehlohonolo Majoro and Tendai Ndoro are all in the running for the place."I have a headache now, I have three strikers that are all working hard but the kind of formation we play means I only have place for one. That decision we'll make in the week. I don't want to give that one away as yet," Tinkler said.Majoro led the line on Saturday night when Pirates beat Bloemfontein Celtic 1-0.Said Tinkler: "Majoro hasn't had a lot of game time, particularly in the starting lineup. I felt it was important to give him that opportunity. It would have been a mistake not to start him because that would have knocked his confidence." ..
