"Looking around" is so huge, because younger players tend to focus on two things: (1.) receiving the ball, and (2.) who can give me the ball? They don't spend enough time thinking about what they will do with the ball when they receive it. Vision is everything, well said in this video.

I personally think that being well Disciplined and having a positive mindset is a major key on improving, I improved alot in sacrificing my other hobby for football and improved so much.

Honestly these tips don’t only help physically, but also mentally. When I started integrating these kinds of things, I felt way more confident in myself. This really helped me and I hope it helps all of you that read this comment to the end :)

I’ve definitely improved my skills since watching the channel. Scored my first goal after a long time today. A massive improvement I have made in my game is my running technique. (Shorter more frequent strides, foot strike under the body instead of in front and sprinting on the toes) Thanks heaps! 💪🏽

With your help I just signed for afc Wimbledon’s a team u12s

Willingness to run. I felt that… I grew a bad reputation off the ball at the college level with teammates and coaches because I lacked this. Skills can only get you so far, I had to learned it the hard way.

I play as goal keeper and I think that’s having a positive mindset is extremely important, I was saying to my self “I’m not gonna save this, my defender better save it”, and I was absolutely right, the ball was right there and I dived in the complete opposite direction. After that I was saying to my self”I got this I’m gonna scan his feet and get information to save this, ”and I was right! So don’t be harsh on yourself you got this!

Sometimes just seeing the clips of Mike or Will John doing the thing they're talking about helps so much more than just hearing the words, but scanning the pitch is such a helpful tip and I'm sure I will improve my game a lot if I implement this, thanks Unisport

[hotbagelfries]

i agree with a lot of the advice, constantly knowing where you are on the pitch and who’s around you will help you better devise what you would do with the ball, or help you make off the ball movement. That also correlates with the 3rd idea on his list is making that extra run. i’ve found in personal experience, (this will be my 3rd year playing soccer) i received the ball much more when i’m always present in the play.

Such great tips. Every Unisport video I watch has tips I instantly want to use in a game

[kbanjnoturningback]

I love your channel I improved everyday I watch your videos and now I'm a very scary player on the pitch and a very important player thanks a lot for improving me as a player ❤️

[alteroccatv]

Having coached at decent level in London, UK, for some time, I agree with you 110%: ball watching, lack of preparation and unwillingness to run or inability to understand the importance of playing/moving - WITHOUT - the ball are by far the biggest obstacles in amateur football

[rachinsharma]

Love you jay mike and your advice.Pleade make a in depth video of how to make a habit of scanning the pitch as instinctual especially those who have the habit of ball watching.

[bpatters]

I would add #4 - Make the other team uncomfortable. Make them pass the ball before they want to and pressuring them before they are ready. Sounds simple but it really helps and creates turnovers.
