quality session, really interesting how different keepers view and train 1v1s like for you it's much more about getting into a shape but some keepers will try to stay on their feet and try to smother the ball as much as possible like Alisson. Unlucky on the playoffs btw think I saw that yous lost out to south liverpool
Cheers mate, 1 v 1’s are very situational so sometimes you’ll be able to come out and smother, others you’ll have to get into shape and block/spread, and sometimes you’ll have to stand and react - it all depends on how close you are to the ball and how much control the striker has. In this particular drill we are working strictly on getting into those blocking/spread shapes. I think it’s always beneficial to work on all 3 aspects of 1 to 1’s (smothering, blocking/spreading, stand and react)
