How to play striker
- know to run
- know to shoot
- know to pass
- know to dribble
- be creative
- look to score

[jakethewoz]

Another reason to shoot often- if you show early on in a game that you're not afraid to shoot (and hopefully shoot well), it makes the defenders more predictable. Since they know you want to shoot, it becomes a million times easier to sell them with a fake shot or stepover. They know they have to stop your shot, so use that to your advantage.

Going to make my striker watch this video for FIFA.

I'm a midfielder but I'm looking to be a striker. Thanks for the tips!

My strengths are movement and shooting. My weaknesses are the holdup play and confidence! Thanks again for the Tips!!

To be honest...this is one of the best Videos I’ve ever seen! So helpful

I am a winger but my coach plays me as a striker. So most often I make my runs collecting the ball from the sides which I think I do better in, because already I have wingers abilities, but my coach hates it so much. He always tells me to stand in between the 2centre backs, and that's difficult for me because i am not that very much competitive in aerial balls.

I need to work on shooting whenever I can instead of worrying that I will miss or look selfish

[zzaz]

Im strong in movement off the ball but weak in composure and panic too much

[Eclipse]

Originally was a midfielder but was moved up as a striker, im new to this I only have about 3 goals in total none have been glamorous but I’m trying to be the best I can for my team as well as for myself. Thank you for the vid, it had helped me and I hope to implement this in my game.

This channel is OBSESSED with Harry Kane.

As a center back transitioning to striker, this really helped

[leonowski]

I think you forgot the probably most important thing: Always stay alert, wait for mistakes and try to read situations. I've scored countless goals from shitty contacts of defenders who hit over the ball or made some failed and risky backpasses simply because I always gambled on them making mistakes. Especially in high pressure situations were a defender is forced to turn around and play the ball back to GK or a CB they tend to not look up and/or play a very weak pass which a striker can intercept if he stays alert.

Another thing I'd suggest is to always monitor the GKs position. If you notice he's 25m in front of his own goal and you win the ball back high up the pitch, don't hesistate to try for a shot.

Thanks for the video and the advice. Have been on a bit of a dry spell in terms of goals (3 games without a goal) but I am working at it. I would call myself a good defensive striker which impacts the game positively on the defensive end ( The difference in goals conceded when I play and when I don't is big.), and I am alright on the offensive end, but I lack that difference making abitlity in the final 3rd. Also, I just transitioned from playing goal keeper to striker around a year ago, so I am still working at it.
My Strenghts: 1) Defensive work (I work hard off the ball), 2) Being a pest for the opposition defense I am always moving trying to get a goal scoring opportunity making runs. 3) Precision shooting 4) Finishing one on ones vs goal keeper (as long as their is no defender near me impacting my play) 5) Hold up play and being an outlet 6) Speed 7) Pressing (good at reading the play and trapping opposition players with my pressing) 8) Poacher (when the ball is near the ground and not whipped in off a cross) 9) Stamina
My weeknesses: 1) Doing smart runs I do a lot of runs but have a hard time timing them sometimes 2) Shot Power 3) Beating players 1 v 1 (skill moves) 4) Finishing off croses (Hit the bar off a voley my last game) I have a hard time finishing when the ball is whiped in at high speeds even sometimes on the ground (timing) 5) Sometimes a bit too much of a team player
And that is pretty much all I can think off for now, thanks for sharing these tips, I am sure they will help me improve :).

I rarely get the ball passed to me but I always make big plays when I do get the ball. So I wasn’t sure if it was my positioning being the reason I didn’t get the ball that much so I came to this video and this clarifies a lot for me. Time to find a new team I guess😂

[jackhicks]

I’m a Tottenham fan and I’m a striker so it was nice to replay Kane’s goals

[visitexclusivebooking]

Excellent video. I have to share this with my son😊

[OllieSMH]

I’m big and tall and well that means I’m not very good and running down defenders so it’s great to have lots of tips on hold up play and drawing fouls

[clashingwithnijl]

as im a defender I really want to switch to striking as it's the best thing but am not able to plese some tips for a new striker
