Replied there are few Legends (Football Legends) inspired him a lot in football, Eg the likes of Kobedi.The other thing,he told us ,said football is something that is in his blood also his family always there to support him in his football career. Hinted he won’t forget his Big Brother Siyethemba Sithebe,the Amazulu Fc star midfielder ,always called him for advices also when he experiencing tough situations.When he grew up ,Arnold regarding his ambition/goal,he wanted to become an EDUCATOR.About his challenges since started playing football said,he faced so many challenges ,because the was a time he wanted to quit football, for example when a team wants to sign you they will promise many things,both parties agrees ,but when you suppose to get game time it becomes tough without explanation for the technical team also sometimes you find out your team mates doesn’t speak to you ,the other situation you work for the team but they don’t provide soccer boots ,also language bearer was a challenge especially in Free State because Arnold is coming from Mpumalanga.
According to him things he learned in his football career, said is not easy being an footballer, but no to be at the level that you want to see yourself at (Professional Level) .The other thing is that ,always he must be humble himself specially towards his football career. The question was directed to him,who motivates him to do better every day, Replied firstly let me say God is the one who keeps him pushing by blessing him with life,secondly he believe that if you do something with love,you won’t need somebody s’motivations .His family do motivates him but doesn’t forget that they do motivate him because they see that what his doing, doing it with love which is football. As well as his Big Brother Siyethemba Sithebe.Changes would like to see in South African Football Development, said here in SA Academies must stop asking money upfront for dis advantage players,stated because situations of talented players are not the same.he cried and explained those dis advantage players ,can’t train proper or sharpen their skills, because money is needed. For example some came to him and said you’re very good, if you can give me R2500,he will get you a better development team and he lost that opportunity because he didn’t have money.He said talent first ,money last.The other thing in those development teams,those coaches have their own working system ,by asking money without training and promoting the players into the advance level like MDC etc.For him playing for Bloemfontein Celtic Fc feels so happy and it gives him more energy to work more extra hard than before towards his football career.
