The clip of MaMkhize's interview sparked a heated debate on Twitter. Some people agreed with her, while others continued saying Andile should be benched.

@nhlangu1 wrote:

"Yes, he would. Footballers are taking the game as a permanent profession, not a side hobbie like he does. They treat their bodies with respect and stick to diets. Many begin trialing as early as eight years old, so they know their trade, unlike him, who's doing it for the love of it."

@SinenkosiNkosi commented:

"To be fair Andile is a pretty decent baller. Had he taken his career seriously from development ,like everyone else, I doubt this question would be asked."

@_Mfundooow said:

"Let's be honest, considering her status and power - he probably made it in at AmaZulu because of who his mom is and the type of family he comes from. A talented player will not suddenly be horrible on the field because he hasn't been there for a while. He should've adjusted by now."
