I’ve just joined a new club, and they play this kind of possession based football. They way I used to play at my old club was polar opposite to this and on the first day (Monday) I got embarrassed by the coach with him questioning my decisions to dribble the ball sometimes (even tho it worked) and yesterday and today, I have been watch and studying this video and studying this type football, and I have to say, it worked wonders for me. Great and helpful video 👍
This is how football should be played, but these days it’s all about pace and fancy dribbling players. That is the foundation for great football the more possession a team has the less opportunities another has. If they don’t have the ball they cant score, making the effort to keep the clean sheet as a overall team target rather than just the defenders with possession is the key to success in football. With a clean sheet you will never lose. Its the mentality that plays a role
Dribbling is important for wingers especially for slapping that cross in this is for midfielders to keep possession to play it to the winger or wide mid so they can go for cross or beat the defender and cross/shoot
