Socceroos coach Graham Arnold has compared his tough upbringing under his late father to that of Jelena Dokic and Andre Agassi but concedes it made him the coach he is today.

"He was hard on me but I look at it now and there was a method to his madness. That’s how fathers were," Arnold tells chief sports writer of the Sydney Morning Herald, Andrew Webster in this episode. 

Arnold speaks about Australia's win against Peru earlier this year, family and upbringing, and preparations for the Socceroos World Cup campaign this November.
