This is why England will never win a major trophy: the standard of coaching coming out of the F.A. is so, so bad. It's basic, unimaginative, and uninformed. It's also depleted of energy: shouting is neither enthusiasm, nor passion, it's just shouting. English coaching is two decades behind the rest of Europe (most of it), and the best coming out of South America; building a huge, shiny facility with a grandiose name, expecting coaching to miraculously improve on the back of it, was delusional and stupid. You have 'grassroots' coaches who are mostly dads who weren't very good players themselves, who are both unqualified and unpaid; on the other end you have 'academies' which are corralling kids at five and six years old and turfing them out at eight or nine - and they're coached by this guy and others like him. The point is this: coaching, as espoused and evinced by every good contemporary coach/manager is little to do with the drills or the sessions, it's simply when to stop the play, and what to say: coaching is talking. And this coach has nothing to say.

I can find very little on how to train scanning. Here it's playing a game and adding a reward/consequence but it must be possible to train scanning better, starting with a simple technical activity. Even if it's just two players passing to each other but they have to look up before they receive the ball (pre or critical scan). They could each hold cones or coloured bibs up before passing that their partner needs to call out before receiving. If this is one of the FA's 6 Core Capabilities it would be good to have more practical info.

number 8 will be a good midfielder

Excellent discussion.

I would personally add a goal or a end zone as progression to make It more game specfic

groups of players, we use this great session

working with our u13 girls on challenging , this will help

already commented ??

yep , again used this

Carl Winterbottom using a different laptop as lost my previous comments and module !! Great info, and will be using

btw ..... this coach is class!

Loads of benefit from this session... The challenges I've had from this session. Kids just run the safe zone constantly - smart, but frustrating. They can't keep score and cause arguments about who's 'winning', even tho I put no emphasis on winning. Tried it without the points and they were not interested.

Linking the session to a theme and bringing into the game at the end 👌

vai catar coquinho cara! voce nao entende nada de futebol! assistir seus videos é uma roubada!

I smile when I am watching it It is fun

Never heard of regenerated the ball instead of recycling.

It's a good discussion with some good information on recieving aspects. Wish there was abit more technical information though towards coaching recieving

that player in the top right is class with those passes lol

In a good team all the players take responsibility and there is no hierarchy. A coach can only do so much.

One of the best coaching sessions i have seen , with very good intensity and clear instrutions . Well done to coach .

Poor intensity from players , im not sure what group are they but intensity is very low .

Brilliant 👏👏👏

This is a very good drill especially if you practice defensive transitioning Points could be 1 point for x amount of passes in your box 1 point for the defending players stealing ball and passing it back to their box

Thank you for teaching about Football.

I am just watching you and adapting my training sessions. Thank you!

it’s a good video but i cant drop down fast and my knee hurts whenever i do drop down any suggestions

I would add a progression so that if a player scores, they join the other group to create an overload. This means that the attacking player has to scan and play quicker as a player can come up behind them to win the ball who is moving from their previous group

too much talking

Thoroughly enjoyed this, I completely agree that creating a collective of players that can be comfortable in each others company to be silly, focused, make mistakes, learn, grow and collaborate is vital to create the best environment to develop. Thanks a whole bunch! Learning every day.

Been an outdoor keeper longer than youtube Gk was a thing. Played my first game of indoor and I thought I'd check out some youtube vids on tech I can do better, great explanation, I fucking love goalkeeping talk. @ 8:23, depending on how far you are committed, sometimes I naturally will drop the "wrong" knee down depending on likelihood of a pass instead of a shot just to give myself at least a chance to change my momentum and intercept or block the pass->shot. With proper positioning you can still eclipse like 90% of the net (talking out of my ass on % here haha)That's the beauty of goalkeeping, no one rule fits all, every situation is different and decisions are made in split seconds. Thanks coach !!!

What were the 3 key phases in this training?

How do you handle young ones that dont follow the perimeter?

Better coach than Southgate

😆😆😆. Adults kicking a ball

Thank you

Im 17 and i wpuld rather learn this sooner then latter so im educating my self bow for all the other coaches any advice for young coaches starting out

You came to ur school sexy daddy maisie has a crush on you 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

i love the coaching intervention at the end here, very well timed, and well paused with compliment at the start

What target player represented in game like?

Easy, concise, and calmly explained. Love it.

Boys first min! First fault! For the young goallies! You can exercise this but don’t do this at games! Most players don’t shoot in this situation! Right feet and you kneel they pull it and you can’t go back! So stop this shit! It’s so wrong! Stay on your front foot untill the player shoots! It’s important that you don’t kneel because a highshot crossed to your kneel side is mostly also a goal!

Weird. Not helpful. Just dudes narrating some clips. Nothing about traing anyone.

Nice I wish to join

Nice I wish to join

Sorry to say, but 7v7 is NOT small sided by definition! The single player is way too rarely in touch with the ball.

Great drill and technical points

nice one coachy

Rất tuyệt! form Vietnam

How do I get flexible enough to do this
