You have that feeling that at least your club still has an interest in you.
I’m still here, enjoying and grateful, I think that’s what matters.
I bet on myself though that I will deliver.
I think it’s very important to have people around you who you can be honest to.
In moments like this you have to put the human first and that is what we did.
The pressure at Pirates is always big, no matter which age-group you’re in.
It’s good to see that they are still involved and give that feedback.
I don’t want to be big-headed though, because if you’re big-headed, this game will eat you up.
At the same time, I think it’s part of life, and looking back there’s no regret and everything happened the way it did.
I try not to focus too much on the critics and what the papers say.
They give feedback and identify areas where we can improve.
If I focus on that, I will end up losing my mind and I will also start missing chances.
This is one of the biggest, if not the biggest club in South Africa. You must always deliver.
And to be honest, the next steps were sort of directed by the club.
I just focus on what I am supposed to do at training so that when the game comes, I am ready.
I was able to have that little break and come back to football, which I think is important.
That’s why I just keep focused and humble, stay in my own space so that I can succeed in whatever I am doing.
I needed to just reevaluate and understand what was good for me and at that time, I’m grateful that the club stood behind me.
I went to the first team with the same mentality, that Pirates is a big team and they need to win every competition and every match they’re in.
Even now, I still feel like I am dreaming. It’s quite weird when people ask to take pictures with me.
