Really solid defensive game from you again, we seeing that side of you improving which is very important for your position. Unfortunatelly not much work offensively which can happen, dont know if it was "your fault" or the game just didnt ask for you that much. For me a solid 7.3, next game Im feeling a superb individual offensive game!!!
Thanks pal 👊🏼! With throw ins, it’s about getting momentum and the correct technique. Next video I’ll do a tutorial with some in game situations. Will u enjoy sumn like that ?
@@BenBrookes3 would love it! Full back / wing back myself finding feet is fine for me it’s the length of the throw in I can’t seem to get 😂 maybe need to get myself to the gym for some arms 😂
Ben if u guys get to the 3rd round if it was up to u what prem team would u want to play the most Great video bro I love all of them but this is one of my most recent favs 🤜🏼
Hi Ben, I was at the Worthing match ( despite being in the smallest corner lol!), I thought done alright, sometimes you have to do your job (defence) and I think it was a positive result too! Worthing is like a banana skin for us so I was so happy. Keep with the game commentary, I like hearing your perspective and great for my son who plays RB
Solid performance to be honest I'm a left back so watching you react helps me and sometimes I am like you at the start panic and some bad choices so good to know even the good players do it 7/8 outa 10 👊
Yeahhh, wasn’t the best start. I always try being composed but it was more bad decisions than the correct ones at the start. Grew into the game after that💪🏼. Appreciate the comment
Question for you about defending which confuses me. If you watch professional games say Premier League or Internationals why do players in your position allow the attacking wide players so much space to easily receive the ball and attack? Why not get much closer to them say 2 or 3 yds off and denying them the space? Watching non league this does not happen.
Not a clue. I like watching players like Ashley Cole who’s always on the front foot and attacks a lot. I believe he’s one of the best but there’s not a lot like him anymore. A lot of players like standing off and being extra safe…
It was one of those that one team hits the woodwork and then other end and scores. We get momentum so hopefully that first home league win comes at home Saturday vs slough
6.8 for the lack of attacking involvement, defensively solid which is good for a left back, or wing back in this case, some good tackles and winning nice fouls in the defensive end. Solid game.
Was so happy when u guys beat Ebsfleet Yesterday been following u since the Tags Days Man Hoping you guys get a massive team like Bolton,Birmingham,Wrexham RTFTB
hey ben hope you doing fine , i decided to start filiming myself while training to make some football content but since i have 0 knowledge about cameras , what is the best camera in terms of price and quality for making football content videos and pictures?
Hi mate, so I film my videos with a cannon EOS 80D. It’s a good camera to place on a tripod and film as it’s abit heavy but that’s the only camera I use. I sometimes use my phone when I want to vlog but that’s about it. I Hope that helps.
Really like seeing your coaching sessions. Looks like you enjoy that side and really encouraging which is lovely to see. I be there tomorrow at Worthing, the best to you and the team. Going on the supporters coach which will be fun!
It’s that fist home league win that we need that and the flood gates because it’s working it’s just getting over the line despite the form being a bit patchy both Chesham and West super mear was just unlucky.
It is obvious how much your team mates trust you to cross amazing balls in. I think you are a little harsh sometimes on yourself! Loved our cup run last season, I have to agree a little with other comment that maybe it distracted us from the league. But it was good fun watching our non league club on match of the day very surreal ! Nice to see some go pro footage especially the reactions from the fans. Great penalty too :)
Thanks for the message! Let’s hope our squad can do well in both, but the league is always going to be priority from us lads. It was an unbelievable journey last year I must say 👏🏼.
Crossing the ball is very hard at times but I’ll start on free kicks so you can try get the correct technique. I’ll then move onto low crosses into dangerous areas and then lastly work on different types of crosses into an area in between the penalty spot and 6 yard box.
