    In my opinion you played in a very professional way, what I think you need to improve is on your first touch, take advantage of open spaces and risk more, you play to safe, overall that is good if you are a professional but it does not set you apart from the rest, that is my thought about your performance in this match, keep it up.

  • @Tsubasa_00010
    @Tsubasa_00010 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    11:38 is just soo hard to watch. Your teammate already won the ball back but just because the enemy is holding his arm he starts flipping out and thus getting sent off the pitch. Obviously a lot of acting by the opposing player but it's just so stupid to act like that when you are in control of the game...

    • @hook8535
      @hook8535 ปีที่แล้ว

      Min 8.39 on the game. Should have either sorted chested into a left foot pass to the strikers left foot.. or a first time left foot pass into strikers feet. Reason being you have time to evaluate the position as that ball is coming to your chest.

    Man I'm glad I found this video, I started playing for an over 40 7v7 team that is significantly below the level I'm used to playing at so they want to move me from keeper to center mid. I haven't played in the field in 5+ years and for the 20 years before that I played as an outside back.

      He’s still the same after years. Plays back or sideways every time. I’ve never seen him play a creative pass in all his touch analysis videos. Modern wingback is supposed to create chances. He just plays like an old school outside back, contributes nothing other than running and simple passes

      It means the same, but I think he is using it as a position rather than role. It certainly looked like an eight or even a six, but we did not see a lot of the game when out of possession, so he was probably starting deeper than a normal 10 by the time we get to see the play.

    Matt, decent work for the first time at the 10! Good runs just missing some of the trademark vision and touch of those that play there naturally. Still though cant help but think, its not a great look for club and USL Championship to not have someone in the squad or youth team that may be suited than a trained outside back.

    Hi Matt,
    I am coming back to pro football and it's been around 4 years since I didn't play in a league at all now I am 23. Throughout those years had injury which prevented me from sprinting at full speed and now last 2 years been working on myself, training and playing 6vs6, 7vs7 in smaller pitches. Now as coming back to pro football, I am facing problems with my fitness. Before injury I was naturally rapid and no one would able to catch me and it was so easy accelerate and run at full speed. Nowadays I feel that I am not as rapid as I was and struggling to run fast and getting tired too quickly. For example last game I played 45 mins as left winger and already after 5-10 min was running out of breath and couldn't easily sprint. I am so confused even tho last 2 months was going to gym and running a lot. But again getting tired to quick and my speed is not the same. Could you give me some advice? Did you face similar problems in your career?

    • @JOJO-jm5pn

      Instead of just just running miles or a lot in one sitting run in intervals example if you have a football feild nearby run from one end of the penalty to the other 25 times in under 4 minutes if possible as well as running from one end of the field to the other in 20 seconds take a 20 second rest and do it again 10 times

    3:08 you should driven way more, the guy behind you can't do anything about it if you drive correctly inwards. he has to foul you, and after that look for shooting or a timed pass. Clearly the angle from the first pass you wanted to initiate is a no go even if you hit it harder.

    @chrisrebollar ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I do not understand why they moved you out of the center mid, you were playing a good game and helping the defense. The goal they scored, in my opinion, is because they moved you out of that position.
    The pass to the space in the beginning of the game, I would have passed low and using the external part of my right foot, and let the friction of the turf and the ball do their work, at the beginning the ball would have gone away from the defender and then by the friction it would return back to the attacker, like when you play in a pool table.

      That first play you talk about where he’s got 2 players on both sides imo, he should’ve kept dribbling in and forcing the defender to pressure him and then there he can choose to shoot outside the box or pass to the guy who got unmarked or fake a shot / pass he passed it too early and the defender knew he would attempt a through ball
