The SECRET To Unlocking Your WEAK FOOT 

Really ironic how your weak foot is really the one you use the most, the standing leg is really important and I learned this pretty early when I realized I can balace better on my weak foot than my strong foot. We really underestimate how much work our supporting foot is doing.

the bit about where to place your standing leg when passing is absolutely true. i was practicing my lefties a while back and noticed that they always went too far to the right, so i tried breaking down my usual shot and mirroring it, and the one thing i was missing was that my standing leg was too far back. sometimes you just don't realize how important every bit of your body is- not just your strong foot.

2:30 jump on strong foot across line 30secs x 3 2:37 do the same but with weak foot tap the ball 7x3 2:40 with weak foot shift the ball forward and backwards 2:43 with weak foot shift the ball side to side 4:00 Pass with weak foot ensuring that strong foot is no more than a foot away to the side of the ball 5x3

I'm naturally right footed but have always loved the finesse of the left leg, and so I spent a year training my left leg and now there is almost no difference with both feet. I play on the flanks so depending on which wing I'm put in, I use the preferred foot. It confuses defenders and always leaves me with options. Being ambidextrous in my opinion is one of the best skills to have in football and I do not regret it

You are one of the best football coach in RU-vid. I have been trying to improve my weak foot.

Here we go! Already know this will be a banger! 🔥 A thing I’ve done to improve my weak foot is try to go through whole training sessions only using that foot, and that definitely helped a lot and then further on it just keeps getting better by itself and you don’t have to focus as much 👌

Man, I'm 34 and haven't play football for 10y. I'm totally armature but those videos helps me a lot to focuse more on technique and theory. Also love the drill videos. Can't wait to see more from you, expecially defensive tutorials. Much love!

never lets us down🤲

You are *SEVERELY* underrated. Love your videos, man! I have this little club I go to on weekends and we do 4v4 matches from time to time, using these tips I had an AMAZING match yesterday! Thanks!

Usually a right foot but I am at the point where my left foot is usually just as dependable, only in some shooting situations less. What helped me from a young age is basically what you said but also the will to use it. I used to take a couple of friendly games, or even with friends and just play with my weak foot as it would've been my dominant, and my dominant would just support but not do the heavily lifting in shooting/dribbling/leading the ball etc. That way you get the most practice and the best feel from my experience to use your weak foot. Nowadays I just use whatever foot is better suited for the particular situation I am in. Just takes some practice, makes me wonder why not more professionals do it

As someone who is actually learning while teaching at the same time, your videos are top class 🙏🏿 I played academy and in college and your vids are still helping me improve even now. Bless brudda

And there's one more benefit of improving the weak foot, it has more power than our dominant foot and I have experienced it Thanks for the video mate + my shooting has improved

hey a little tip that worked for me: some reason i would just random do small taps between my left foot and right foot while walking, and over time i developed it and suddenly after a while i noticed a difference in my skills with my weak foot and turned it into a monster (well only a bit for passing but rubbish at finishing with it)

Great video helps alot mate Thanks

im learning kick box and this video really helps me:D thanks a lot.

Thank you for another beautiful video bro From your videos I have learnt some secrets to some techniques like shot power And I hope to start implementing them now that I'm coming back from an injury and to keep working to reach the professional level

this is the most needed video for me i always wanted this video and i knew i couldnt play with my weak foot since my standing leg was in the way but i didnt know how to improve the standing leg's positioning and this video is the best for that thank you for uploading this banger mate 🔥🔥

High quality content man u deserve more subs

yo thanks a lot this really helped me and these tips already helped me a lot with my weak foot

I agree with everyone praising your account, coming from nowhere and making excellent videos - you deserve all the success. Have to say though im deeply envious of all that gorgeous scenery in the background!!! What a stunning location to film in!

Bro your content is so good. hopefully it reaches many more player

Much needed 🙌. Thnx brother ❤

Really interesting way of approaching this. Love the videos - keep up the great work

That advice really helps. I have a decent weak foot and the positioning of the foot is what delivers the performance (for me)

Thanks man needed this so much ❤

Hey man! I love your videos they are really amazing and helpful.Can you please make a video on juggling...!

That landscape is beautiful mate wya!

As someone who played an entire season as an 8 year old with his weak foot as a challenge with a friend, improved on that later on and now is considered to be completely two-footed up to the decision which foot to take for a penalty, I can add some (even disappointing) insights: 1) In a right-foot-dominated football world, you will be seen as a left-footed, because you will play more often on those position ("you play on the right, so you can cut in and shoot" or "we need crosses, now you play Leftback" or "our corners should be inswings, so you take them from the right" e.g.) 2) The main advantage is in tight spaces, where you basically skip a step. Of course this means you are better at dribbling, but not on high pace dribbling. 3) In defending it comes in handy, if you can slide with both sides and block shots with both feet. So it's not just on the ball. 4) Playing on the wing is also especially fun, when the defender does not know if you go along the side and cross, cut in and cross or cut in and shoot/pass back. You can see this in a player like Joao Cancelo. Although he is right-footed he is very hard to predict, when he has the ball near the box. 5) You can trick the opponents at a freekick when you imitate a run-up to the ball with one foot and shoot with the other. I'm not a good freekick taker (see 6), but scored multiple times doing this, when the keeper just placed the wall completely wrong. Make sure to let your team mates know, if you cross a freekick and if you shoot, stand there alone! 6) Consider that you will lack depth in your development when you are young. I experienced hard drawbacks, when other kids could kick 40m with their right and 10m with their left, while I could do 20m with both, which is not appreciated that much. So, in conclusion, today it helps out a lot being totally balanced and it adds a welcoming flexibility, but if you aim for the highest skill and performance on your position, a different distribution than 50/50 between the feet should work way better.

Thank you for that advice man.

I found this really helpful 🔥🔥🔥

Awesome video, my week foot may as well be a bowl of jelly, keep up the greet work ⚽️

I just asked for this video days ago and now you just make it, thanks man, it was a great one

Good to see the channel growing. Keep it up champ!

some of the best football tutorial/informational videos rn, nice work man.

Yesss come on!! Missed it this morning but another great video as usual

I'm proud of you and your channel! I remember when you had less than a thousand subscribers, but your content is genuinely helpful. It's nice to see you grow. Keep up the good work

You never let us down! Very detailed! Thank you soo much!

really helpful, i feel like ur the only football youtuber who makes practical training videos.

Wow, great perspective. Thanks for this.

great video with a lot of depth!

My weak foot is so good but I'm watching this to make it perfect. Can shoot with my right and shoot with my left (weak foot) and cross as well. I will tell you one important thing for perfecting your weak foot. Your ball control becomes better massively. You're able to get out of tricky situations and not be predictable to the defenders. Improve your weak foot that people start asking you what's your strong foot

This is an excellent way to improve!

Bro your gonna be big one day. The quality of your videos are amazing!!! Keep it up!!

I've been studying Messi's drive a lot recently and realised that he drives or cuts back from right to go left A LOT because he's a lefty. The benefit is the right side of his body shields the ball. What if you practiced from the day you started training at 5 years old to use both feet to drive the ball?! My son and I are both ambidextrous, but it still takes a lot of effort. We practice everything the same on our weak side. It's a huge benefit.

Omg finally thank you u legend for this video

Yeee I've been working on both feets since I learned to drive, always knew that I didn't want one side too dominant! It's been super helpful in my games. Also thanks for this video, I remembered in a comment in another video we talked about weak foot, glad to see it become a video

Thank's for the tip's before this i was playing with just my left leg doing some kick up's and i noticed after i was more versatile with where ever ball goes gonna try this tommorow

This is the video I needed. Thank you

His every video is very helpfull to me thanks mate for uploading this type video 🙏

I'm getting some compliments with my weak foot nowadays and this video will make my weak foot into banger 🔥

was about to go practice on the pitch just now - thanks for the consistently high quality content

Best RU-vidr posts again. You are one of the best , keep up the good work 👍

I just wanna say that since the start of my career i have never been into football channel like yours , every thing you post is very simple but unique and every thing you say actually makes sense unlike other youtube channel . I was losing hope from my weak foot until one of your video appeared out of nowhere and in less than a week I already can see the progress , please can you do a video about recovery post matches

Love the content

You provide the best quality soccer videos😊

I used to ambidextrous with a preference for dribbling with my left foot, but after I stopped playing for 5 years, my left foot just kinda disappeared. But I’m trying to get back to it so this is great ❤

I recently bought too the puma neymar boots you have in the video, they are sick 🔥🔥 nice video again it is very useful for a square left footed like me

Oh wow so it was my right leg all along 😅 wow this really opened my mind cheers man for the video

love your vids

New video!!!yess finaly

These videos help so much but bro a crossing tutorial would be so much help

I learnt something I never knew when I started playing Now imma start practicing and improve thx coach

Crazy how learning this has actually helped my strong foot! Bananas!

Never even thought about this before, but it actually makes sense.

Thanks for this vid

I've realised my dribbling on my weak foot isn't the best and had some idea of what the problem was but this video opened my eyed to it. My shooting on my weak foot isn't the best but does the job tho

I like the tips of increasing muscle memory exercises, I have been developing my weaker foot by conscious playing with it more...taking shots, passing, etc. Keeping it ready for action and keeping defense guessing. Though 5-10% success rate, but still great when I can take advantage of the space on my left.

This is actually really good advice

Bro this really help

This is absolutely genius. While you may still not have the quality on your weak foot, you can actually utilize it in more siruations than before. Its so smart to get confident on the standing leg. Then just using your weak foot to dribble, pass and shoot will improve quality, but yea the fundamentals are so smart to focus on.

Great video, been slowly developing my weak foot and this video came in at the right time. Thank you :)

after several injuries it is literally my weak entire leg. used to have a really powerful straight shot, couldnt bend it or anything special. now i can't even clear the ball with the weak leg and passing is 50/50, i guess more physical therapy and starting over from scratch with loads of practice.

you are the best!

amazing vid 🦿🦿💯

Long time no see you! The log!🤣🤣🤣 It's really a basic sports theory that most people don't know. It can be used not only on support leg in football but also for body rotation and so on in other fields. Nice video! 👍👍👍 Simple and easy to understand! Still sorry for my poor English😅😅 Hope you can understand it.

Great Video

Man you are a legend, my weak foot has always been my one terrible well, weakness. So this video is brilliant and has helped show me exactly what I need to do to up my game that little bit more

Thank you

wow, i wanted to see weak foot tutorial for so long, now match day vlog would be great.

Yo love the video, this will really help me Also I got the same boots as you

A Great Coach you are.🇰🇪💪🏾

I hope these tutorials will actually make me a good player

when I was training to use my weak foot I used to play matches using only my left foot for the entire game after wall workouts and real games with my left foot now I don't care where the ball is left or right are the same it requires only to get as much touches as you can it works!!

Great vid, can you make a video for training at home

I love the NZ scenery.

Nice Video

How how people can't use 2 swords in both hands in medival times and often had a dagger in the other. You don't need both your feet to be equally strong you just need your weak foot to understand the basic controls

Logical as always

deserves a subscribe

I think the best way to train weak foot is just playing with it, and benefit of good weak foot is you can outsmart your opponent in dribble by just switching a lot ball between feet, that's really very effective skill, and your opponent will never know from which foot u gonna shoot

Content ❤️

There is no secret you just practice what you do with your strong foot. You put in the work and you get the results.

Can you make drills on how to improve vision and speed of play 👏

Learning to plant your other foot is just as important as learning to kick with your weak foot. Practice over and over . Something that I found great was just standing 2 metres from a wall hit the wall using your weak foot control the rebound and repeat. Above all Practice Practice Practice.

Bro pls do a video on ball mastery exercises. In ball mastery videos of RU-vid it contains some unwanted skills which ain't effective . So I want you to do best ball mastery moves that are effective which improves our game!!

Great video. I'm looking forward to the next "5 signs you're a good footballer"

If I or anyone else become pro please help this man to get coach contact.

I am like osman dembele - but video is informative, keep it up bro

Thankuuuu

im 13 and my dream is to hopefully go pro someday and your videos have definitely supported my technique and helped alot! unfortunately i broke my arm and cant play for some time but the videos still help
