Let me know what POSITION do you wanna play?! 👇👇

[mr.musical]

I found my best position, thanks to you. I am now a centre back in my school team. I am also now the vice captain.
Thankssss

[arifarafatgamer]

I'm glad I'm a CB and what you said for a center back is exactly the qualities I have

[joshuarualhleng]

Coach i got good vision and long passes and good strength and alright ball control and alright defendingand good shooting but the down side of me is not being quick and skillful

[maraissilly]

one of the best football channels on YouTube!! I appreciate you so much!!

[juujupose]

I hope my comment doesn't get lost! lol.. I started as a striker but figured I wasn't very good, so I converted to a center-back. I realized I was a beast when it came to 1v1 situations. I was nicknamed "No One Passes By" in high school because even the best dribblers found it difficult to get past me. I'm 15 years old and 179 cm tall. I don't know if I'll grow taller since my parents aren't tall, but I'm already taller than both of them. I have good ground passing skills, but my long balls are below average. I receive a lot of accolades from friends and sometimes coaches, but some later discourage me because of my height. I feel like when I join a really good team, I might get disqualified or benched because of my height.
I recently joined a new academy and won the MVP of the season. I played CB, CDM, and RB. My speed is okay or average. I want to send you my video where I played CDM and a few sessions as CB. I would like you to analyze it, and I don't mind paying a few dollars for your analysis. I also need your advice on whether I should continue playing as a CB or CDM.
Thanks.

[irishgolfkidt]

I’m good at dribbling I’m quick and I’m alright at defending it’s pre season now and we’ve been doing training with the best team in the age group and my team which is 2 leagues below that to find out which team everyone should be on but I’m not that smart I don’t know when to do all the stuff and there trying me out at fullback what do you recommend

[ayceetruth]

I'm 5'7 quite skinny but have surprisingly decent strength.

Strengths:

-Very Quick and Agile
-Great at Dribbling in Tight Positions
-Linkup Play
-Jumping
-Endurance
-Defensive Contribution


Weaknesses:

-Concentration
-Awareness
-Composure (can be on and off)
-Confidence
-Decision Making

[CRescentnoodles]

I’m a pretty well rounded player honestly… but a few things are off especially in need of finishing, i usually score right outside the box in the middle area.

Strengths:
Crossing/Curl
Dribbling
Long Shots
Awareness
Positioning
Tiki Taka
Challenges

Weaknesses:
Finishing
Weak Foot
Strength
Composure
Defensive Contribution

[amensentertainment]

Hey coach my strengths are speed, dribbling, game IQ, passing ; what position is recommended i don't have any neutral position now but i used to be a Left winger. ❤😊

[Xenozzz___]

I have an eye for passing. Carrying the ball is a skill I want and am working towards. Left footed player playing left back. Not that great at defense due to lacking that first step quickness against defenders sometimes and get beat. My friend has told me one thing that I am is that I’m calm on the ball. I also consciously read where the game will go, such as I know where the ball is gonna be passed to, allowing me to get a head start when going against opponents. I’m not a great footballer, but I still would like to know what you think.

[LegendsLoom.]

I have a unique problem. I am one of the best defensive players for my school. I'm talking fullback, cm, and cdm( positions I have played, but I player attacking positions for my local club team.
I would say my strengths are:
-Dribbling in tight spaces
-agile and fast( one of the fastest if not fastest player in all teams I've played for)
- awareness
- defense
- positional awareness
- good communication
- good a scoring
- playmaker
-good soccer iq
Strong
Weakness:
-first touch(been working on it for a while, getting better)
- shooting(sometimes also working to be more consistent)
-Terrible at headers
- Long passes.

Ik I sound like a bragging but I have played every position and have been amazing in everyone( my coaches don't know what position they should play me 😭) they just play me wherever

[Extic]

Not great at football, lack of confidence, used to play on the wing when young but as grown older i have become afraid to get the ball and afraid to fail everybody by making mistakes so transitioned to defence so i dont get the ball much. i want to go back up the field but i feel like i might not have the courage

[domish]

Amazing video, very helpful information! I am looking to get back into playing football for my university team, but I have only played ultimate frisbee competitively in the past several years. I used to play pretty much any position, even keeper, but I tended to to be played mostly at LB, RW, and any midfield position. I am 173 cm and I have always been pretty light, so when I play physically, stronger players can easily push me around, but I do play very aggressively. I have asthma, so stamina is one of my biggest weaknesses. I am one of the faster players in the high school ultimate league I played in, but I would say quickness is one of my main strengths, with being able to change direction and beat my mark off the ball. I was often the captain, and I am always giving orders and information to help my teammates. I am the type of player who would rather get a great assist than score a goal, but my finishing isn't terrible. I tend to be a little indecisive, so having to make very quick decisions after receiving the ball is not great for me. I think I am a patient player, and I am able to wait for higher percentage opportunities both on offense and defense. I can also tackle pretty well, but my ball control needs a lot of work. I think I can pick out good chances and through passes/ short passes then moving into space, but sometimes I don't scan as much as I need to. What positions do you think I should focus on trying out?

[twistyorange]
