aï¿½?I WANT TO KNOCK THEM INaï¿½ï¿½: Knox takes aim at Absa Golden Boot accolade

. Fungai Muderere
GOLDEN Arrows striker Knox Mutizwa has dreams of one day winning the Absa Premier Soccer League Golden Boot award, but he is mostly focused on improving on last seasonaï¿½ï¿½s scoring record with the club.

Mutizwa has rejoined Arrows on loan again from Bidvest Wits and the Zimbabwean forward is hoping to carry on from where he left off last season.

He showed glimpses of brilliance during the second half of the season with Arrows, scoring five goals in 14 league appearances for the KwaZulu Natal outfit.

With strikers such as James Keene, Gabadinho Mhango and Eleazor Rodgers to compete with at Wits, joinin Arrows on loan was the best option for Mutizwa.

He knows how the team plays and he understands what coach Clinton Larsen wants from him as a target man.

Mutizwaaï¿½ï¿½s confidence will no doubt be high after his fine performances during the Cosafa Cup in South Africaaï¿½ï¿½s North West province recently, where he bagged five goals for the Warriors, who finished the tournament as champions.

Mutizwa was named Player of the Tournament, which shows how much of an asset he can be if given a fair chance to prove himself.

After the Cosafa Cup, Mutizwa scored a brace in Arrowsaï¿½ï¿½ 4-1 win over Maritzburg United in the KZN Premieraï¿½ï¿½s Cup a fortnight ago.

He is a striker defenders should be worried about going into the new season.

aï¿½?There is always room for improvement. I scored five goals in 14 appearances. I think this season I can do better than I did last season,aï¿½? said the former Highlanders forward.

aï¿½?Every striker dreams of becoming a top scorer in the league, so one day I dream of becoming a top goal scorer in the Absa Premiership.

aï¿½?Scoring five goals in the league and five goals in Cosafa will motivate me every time I get on the field. If Iaï¿½ï¿½m on the field my teammates are putting the ball in the box for me to score, so Iaï¿½ï¿½m going to improve from five goals in the Cosafa Cup and five goals in the PSL.

I can assure you Iaï¿½ï¿½m going to improve this season,aï¿½? he added.

Mutizwa won the Zimbabwe Golden Boot Award in 2015after he scored 14 goals from 17 starts in Highlanders colours.
