@vukmaksimovic1325 3 года назад

Can you do two minute tuesday how to become more confident on the pitch?

@CalvinFox31 3 года назад

I was thinking about doing that on my channel here. For me I can relate to you a lot with this, I sometimes struggle with confidence but here is what I find really helpful. First before a game think about all the hard work you have put in during the week to become successful for the next 90 minutes. Confidence is connected to how well you feel you are ready to handle the task at hand and if you're putting in work remind yourself of that. Second start with the small things look to connect small passes then grow from there. Everyone goes through times where they feel less confident but its how you respond to them that matters! Let me know if you think this is something I should talk about in my next video. Hope this helps mate.

@JaydenRodgerstraining 3 года назад

@seraphimdavis575 3 года назад

From my experience you get confidence in games from practicing on your own because If you practice long passing for a week then when you get the ball and you are about to play a long ball you will have confidence because you know you have been working on it for a week and in a week it may not be perfect you will be okay with messing up on it because you know you have been working on it

@jamesh684 2 года назад

@Yvan Sainathan I actually kind of disagree. When you're facing people who are really good, there's a point in which you have to realize that stopping them is going to take more than normal solid play. In other word's cheating to stop passes in and forcing harder balls over the top to create a foot race, or if they get the ball constantly shuffling my feet, because even though it's tiring it stops them from being able to get you fully turned around. Neither of these things are natural or instinctual, but are just adaptions you need to think about when playing someone more skillful than you.

@fynnbtw6509 3 года назад

@anupj8725 3 года назад

I anticipate the play, but the annoying part is when you just miss the ball by inches even when you know where the ball is going. That is soo irritating makes me feel so not fit 😅

@fewik8567 3 года назад

Great insight Matt! I deffo think this is not spoken about enough in coaching and training. I like analyse strikers in the pro game, they are always anticipating keepers dropping the ball, when centre backs may do a weak back pass and where the ball might land in the box. Keep up these kind of topics 👏🏾

Really really good video, love the tactical analysis vids, PLEASE DO MORE!

@kingaufswag 3 года назад

I remember when I was a young defender, I would always just think of getting to the ball first and not letting the attacker make the first move. But as you get to 15,16,17 years old you start to realise that some of these wingers you come up against are actually getting smarter with their movement and it made me start to realise that you have to use a little bit of your instinct and just anticipate through body shape

Hi Matt, thank you for posting all these beneficial and helpful contents for us, young players. I have been playing left center back since youth and good at defending for my team. However, I always wanted to play as a striker or winger in offense. But struggled to stay calm or know how to position myself for runs or attacking with the teammates in offensive line. Could you please do a video on that Matt? It would be highly appreciated!! Sending support from Minnesota!

@NoahCavanaugh 3 года назад

Great explanation of a key part of being a pro player! Question for another video: Often I’ll get messages from friends/colleagues in the pro game who complain about their agency not doing enough, the politics of a particular team, or teammates who aren’t welcoming/kind. I’d be really interested in your take on personal responsibility and “extreme ownership” (Jocko Willink book), and how it can help with becoming and staying in the professional game. Thank you brother!

@matt, as an attacking midfielder, modern football is requiring more defensive efforts from the CAM, can you make a video on how to step, when to step and what to do if you get beat. Stepping up to the player to shut them down and such, especially those wingers who use their space and speed.

@andrewmyerson675 3 года назад

Another example is with the 'under the wall' free-kick technique. Ronaldinho, and many others since, anticipated that the players in the wall would jump to anticipate his shot going over them and block it, and decided to shoot under the wall instead. He anticipated the other players' anticipation, and found a solution to score.

@fiveinmidfield 3 года назад

Great topic! I'm very average so my opinion doesn't count for much but having played and trained with people that made it pro I would place anticipation and speed of decision making only second to touch in its importance to making it pro (skill wise).

@theontanga7141 Год назад

@678crazydave 3 года назад

The last thing you said I've been doing that since I was in high school. I never thought of it to be a particularly high level play, but it was very effective especially against my friends who played d2. It's also a good way to save yourself from having to do a long sprint because you can just intercept the attackers long touch with a short burst and shield it or force them out of bounds if you're feeling lazy and don't want to have to turn out with the ball. I liked to put in as much effort as was needed. No more no less lol. I used it mostly on the wing near the 18 and then force them out for a gk. I feel like it's one of the few positions you can get away with not being totally goal side of the attacker. Like I guess technically they could shoot, but if you stay tight you can just stick out a leg and stop it.

@nordenlashangderpalama8876 3 года назад

with the fullback, so to make it clear, the fullback is stepping towards the winger acting as if he is going to tackle him, he anticipates that the winger is going to go down the line, therefore he is going to take an explosive step and run down the line before the winger sets off. Is this correct?

@Leonidas-eu9bb 2 года назад

I really think this will help amateur players more than all their usual trainings. Maybe most people think they haven't the physicall level of a pro. But in reality it's mostly the mental ability they lack. The physical and mental aspect are connected. Every physical task starts with the mental order to do it. Being mentally quick is beining quick!

@davidhill5988 Год назад

The defensive feint is incredibly powerful, as often the advantage goes to the attacker due to uncertainty of where they will go that forces the defender to anticipate. However, the defensive feint shifts the power to a more balanced level between attacker and defender because now the attacker faces the uncertainty of when the defender will actually make a tackle, so that power shift can make a real difference over the entire 90 min as the attacker becomes more weary and maybe less aggressive offensively than they would have otherwise.
