00:01make in football and in today's video
00:03our professional football player will
00:05John will give you not one not two but
00:0830 mistakes in 30 minutes that you
00:10should look to avoid and how to do it so
00:14[Music]
00:20enjoy very first thing you need to know
00:22and understand is that a first touch is
00:24going to make or break you so if the
00:26ball comes into you guys and it's
00:28rolling out here I take a touch like
00:29this all I do that maybe come down here
00:32there and now and now I've got the ball
00:34under control absolutely not going to
00:36cut it so at the higher level when the
00:37ball comes into you you have to be able
00:39to take an essentially Perfect Touch
00:41it's expected of you every time and
00:43there are ways to train this which is
00:45exactly what you're looking at right now
00:46a wall is your best friend if you can
00:48find a wall to pass up against if you
00:51have friends that want to go out and
00:52train with you that's fine but I I
00:53actually really suggest a wall because
00:55it'll allow you to do all sorts of
00:57things from passing the ball in using
00:59the out side of your foot the inside of
01:01your foot turning checking away all that
01:03stuff will make you a better player so
01:04you absolutely have to do it your first
01:06touch will make or break
01:08[Music]
01:13you all right my friends I've got the
01:15ball now what do you notice that's wrong
01:19nothing you say that's just a nice
01:21handsome looking man there just standing
01:22there with the ball there's nothing
01:24wrong yes there is something wrong the
01:26ball's too close it's too close up under
01:28me guys all right now let's count the
01:30amount of things that are going to be a
01:31problem in the game if I am standing
01:33like this with the ball number one I
01:36have no ability to get any power on the
01:39ball if it's this close up under me you
01:42know that the very first thing you're
01:43going to want to do is tap it out wide
01:45all right just so you have a chance to
01:47pass or shoot what else if the ball is
01:50this close up under me so much so that I
01:52need to look that I don't really have an
01:55understanding of where the ball is I
01:56can't see who's coming I cannot see that
01:58300 lb guy coming in with two feet like
02:01a ma truck getting ready to slam into me
02:04why because the ball is too close up
02:06under me all right if you go to shoot
02:09now that's the worst thing that could
02:11possibly
02:12happen shooting like this how are you
02:14going to shoot it doesn't even make
02:16sense the very first thing you need to
02:18know is that the ball doesn't belong
02:20here all right when you are trying to
02:22play long when you're trying to pass
02:24when you're trying to shoot this is a no
02:26no all right the most ideal setting to
02:28look up and see the field the ideal
02:30setting to play a pass and the most
02:32ideal setting to have a shot is when the
02:34ball is just a couple feet out in front
02:37of you so work to try and put yourself
02:39in that position that way you have the
02:41entire game open to
02:43[Music]
02:46you so a lot of guys want to understand
02:49how to improve their awareness how to
02:51proove their positioning and things like
02:53this when they go to check for the ball
02:54if you watch a guy like buetts he makes
02:56sure first of all that his chance of
02:58success is huge if there's six guys
03:00around me I I I don't ask for the ball I
03:03don't look for the ball because what's
03:04going to happen you're going to put
03:05yourself in a horrible position so a lot
03:07of things are happening beforehand that
03:09you as a striker can give yourself
03:10better awareness of positioning anytime
03:12the play is going on you always have to
03:14make sure to have a look behind you all
03:16right this goes no matter what position
03:17you are but especially if you're a
03:18striker because you want to know where
03:19the goalie is and you want to feel where
03:21you have a chance to score I think I
03:23want to shoot over here you know very
03:25well you do not want to aim to have your
03:28body here I can't
03:30if if if my body's here I how am I going
03:33to shoot back that way no open your body
03:36up more often than not the best thing
03:37for me to do is to get the ball One
03:40Touch
03:41here boom there all right so you have
03:44two touches in the Box as a striker or
03:47as a central midfielder if you can do
03:48everything in two touches you will be
03:50golden all right that is what you should
03:52aim for always aim to get and finish
03:54your action one touch to set yourself up
03:56the next to execute
03:58[Music]
04:03one of the most underrated and
04:06overlooked parts of anybody's game is
04:07going to be their strength training and
04:09your flexibility most players think that
04:11they can ignore all of this stuff and
04:13honestly when you're pretty young you
04:15can get away with doing that as you
04:17progress through the game and as you get
04:18higher if you want to take your game to
04:20a new level if you want to reach the
04:22potential that you have within you
04:23you're going to have to do something
04:25about strength training and about
04:27flexibility both of these things they
04:29are not the sexiest things out there in
04:31the world but if you do not do them you
04:33will never become the player that you
04:35truly can be so me as a young player I
04:37would wake up in the morning and I would
04:39find time to do push-ups sit-ups squats
04:43I like to do circuit training and stuff
04:44like that we've made a video already on
04:47some of those things that you can do
04:48it's a 5-minute football or workout you
04:50would think that you can't get tired in
04:515 minutes but go check that video out
04:54and then let us know okay you look at a
04:56guy like Ibrahimovic able to bend
04:58backwards all the way and almost touch
05:00the ground okay what is that doing for
05:03his game well look at all the way he
05:04kicks look at the way he moves all that
05:06stuff is opening up a world that you
05:09just won't have if you're stiff okay you
05:11may be able to get away with ignoring
05:13this for a little bit but if you want to
05:14be a pro if you want to be world class
05:16or if you want to open up parts of the
05:17game that you never knew you had this
05:19has got to be something you got to
05:20incorporate so do it
05:24[Music]
05:30all right my friends number two our
05:33friend Ibrahimovic tremendous player
05:35just retired while he was a young player
05:37he had a lot of issues with containing
05:40and controlling his emotion why is that
05:43well he's a ball of energy this guy is
05:45ready to play he's ready to win he's
05:47ready to fight but what happens if your
05:49emotions get in the way if they getting
05:51you red cards if they're not allowing
05:52you to focus on what we just talked
05:53about in the first point the thing that
05:55will help the team win then your
05:57emotions are an issue right and it took
06:00him much later in his career to kind of
06:02control that but what happened once he
06:04did all right once he got a good
06:06understanding of I can't just go kick
06:08someone I can't just let this person get
06:10in my head and do this he became a beast
06:12so much so that everybody feared him
06:14right when these things happen to you on
06:16the field or off the field find a way to
06:18channel that anger emotion sadness
06:21whatever it is find a way to channel
06:23that into the thing that matters most
06:25you go to train right do some meditation
06:28relax before the game take a deep breath
06:31before you do any sort of action right
06:33can I use this to Sprint harder can I
06:35use this to go into the tackle clean and
06:38hard and make sure that this person
06:39knows that no matter what they do it's
06:41not going to stop me issue number one my
06:44friends you want something for nothing
06:49you can't get something for nothing it
06:51doesn't work the formula is
06:54tppp
06:55technique patience and persistence like
06:59learning scales on the guitar or good
07:01pitch before you become a singer you can
07:03play without learning them but you're
07:05probably going to suck when you're
07:07hungry you don't want to go to the
07:09grocery store you just want your food to
07:11appear directly in front of you I get it
07:14but the truth is you guys you're going
07:15to have to put in the work there is a
07:17small sacrifice that you have to make in
07:19order to get something and this is what
07:20you need to remember as a beginner if
07:22you put in all of the foundational work
07:25everything in front of you will be
07:26easier most of the time beginners and
07:29young players do not want to do the
07:30things that will make their lives better
07:33in the future you now that you've heard
07:35this will not make that
07:39[Music]
07:41mistake some of you are not willing to
07:45repeat no repetition what's that you're
07:47saying I go to the field every day and
07:50I'm there isn't that good no it's not
07:54good it's not good enough because we
07:56need to repeat the same actions over and
07:58over again I understand we live in a
08:00fractured Society I understand Tik Tock
08:02is burning a hole in your brain but you
08:05have to repeat the same things over and
08:08over and over again and beginners don't
08:10want to do it they want a new shiny
08:12button and a new shiny thing to chase
08:14every single day and what ends up
08:16happening is that over the course of
08:18time you haven't practiced anything you
08:19haven't mastered anything and you're
08:21still a beginner when the truth is that
08:23you put in a month of training focused
08:27on the technical fundamental skills and
08:29things that you should be doing you
08:31would be balling before you know
08:33[Music]
08:37it well the sun's out now it's decided
08:41not to
08:42respect our filming time but that's okay
08:45because we're ready for setbacks which
08:47is the point of this right here some of
08:50you think you're going to take a
08:51straight shot from beginner mode to
08:53ultra superstar that there's not going
08:55to be any setbacks no obstacles just
08:57going to shoot straight to the Moon
08:59that's not how it works you go like this
09:02and then something goes boom and you
09:03start going this way and then you give
09:05up a little bit and then you're
09:06depressed and you're sad and then you
09:07think why am I depressed and sad I'm
09:09going straight to the Moon all right my
09:11friends in life and in the game as a
09:15beginner know that you're going to have
09:16your ups and downs you're going to have
09:17days where you want to train you're
09:18going to have days when you're motivated
09:20it doesn't matter you have to understand
09:22put the idea the template the thing for
09:25where you want to be there at the end
09:27and then don't worry about all this crap
09:29that happens in the middle it's going to
09:30happen just keep
09:33[Music]
09:37going mistakes some beginners some
09:42crumble after their first mistake this
09:45cannot be you it is a common thing for
09:47most beginners just like we said in the
09:49last one to expect everything to go to
09:51the very moon but you have to remember
09:54after your first mistake how you react
09:56is the big difference between beginners
09:57and amateurs and Pros mistakes are
10:00expected and because they are expected
10:02they're ignored if you're continually
10:04making mistakes then you have an issue
10:05if you make a mistake in a game a bad
10:07pass a bad shot you miss an open goal
10:09right you forget to go to training you
10:11you forget something out out of your bag
10:13all this stuff are things that are going
10:15to happen you cannot crumble after your
10:17first mistake do not react to that be
10:20someone who is going to create their
10:21world rather than someone who's
10:22constantly reacting to the things that
10:24are happening around them that will make
10:26you better
10:27[Music]
10:32most beginners do not analyze their
10:35games I understand the point at the
10:36beginner phase is to have fun and that
10:38is truly the point of the game but do
10:40you know what's actually
10:42fun being really really
10:45good when you're good at something you
10:47can actually enjoy the game you can
10:49actually enjoy the sport and that's what
10:50we want from you guys and you won't get
10:52there unless you analyze your game and
10:53figure out what is wrong what can't I do
10:56every time I pass the ball it goes left
10:58and I'm trying to pass right
10:59fix it right start training those things
11:02beginners don't seem to care about any
11:04of that their only concern is to go out
11:07there and run around and just let
11:08everything be chaos not everything is
11:10chaos there are some things you can do
11:12to make yourself a better player and if
11:14you analyze your game you will do
11:17it I was supposed to be a crossbar so I
11:27just the whole one V one process is very
11:30complex but we're going to break it down
11:32very easy for you the first issue most
11:34players have is they do not know what
11:36they are doing when they get the ball
11:40where's the defender how much space do I
11:42have how much time do I have is it the
11:4490th minute do I need to score do I need
11:46to get a cross off you have to have some
11:48idea of what you're doing when you get
11:50the ball in a 1 V1 situation and no you
11:52are not going to have a script we not
11:54going to just say oh do this then
11:57triangle plus Square L1 are to the
11:59whatever Tik Tock down there to the
12:01Snapchats no you're not going to know
12:03exactly what's going on but you have to
12:05at least understand I'm going here and
12:07I'm going to the right I'm going here or
12:09there's the space check and understand
12:11these small things and once you know
12:13those then you can attack but if you get
12:16the ball and then you're thinking I'm
12:17going to do this amazing step boom guy
12:20takes the ball and it's over no first
12:22point know exactly what you're going to
12:23do and then execute
12:26[Music]
12:30now that you know exactly where the
12:32space is you have to shift to a new
12:34focus and that new focus is speed you
12:38have to take these players on with speed
12:39and Pace they have to be worried about
12:41what you're going to do if you go slowly
12:43if you go lukewarm half ass this guy is
12:47going to know exactly what to do he
12:48doesn't have to worry about anything The
12:49Defenders behind him don't have to worry
12:51the goalie doesn't have to worry
12:52nobody's concerned you're not a threat
12:55but if you know where the space is and
12:57then you take it at speed you you will
12:59see that everything will open up for you
13:01because this Defender has to worry about
13:02is he going to go left right or wherever
13:04right so the first thing you have to
13:05know once you get that ball Once you
13:07turn once you see the spaces you attack
13:09with speed pace and
13:17purpose once you know where you're going
13:19once you're going with Pace the next
13:20thing that trips up many players is over
13:23complicating things you do not need to
13:24be too complex this is not surgery this
13:27is not something special I don't know
13:28what you guys are doing trying to summon
13:30that pwg on the field you got to
13:33have the right time for all of this you
13:35do not need to summon a wizard every
13:38time you are taking someone on 1 V one
13:40most of the time and the higher the
13:41level you go faints change of Direction
13:44hesitation stop go all of this stuff is
13:47what makes players dangerous it's not
13:50always the craziest Neymar trick so
13:52remember that as you go to the field
13:54Simplicity is best we are not saying
13:55that you do not have time to make magic
13:57you will but it has to be done in the
13:59right situations if you want to improve
14:01your game start simple and start
14:08now fear of failure anxiety all of these
14:13things will trip you up before you even
14:15get going because if you know where
14:16you're going and you're going with pace
14:17and you're keeping things simple that's
14:19great but if you can't even get yourself
14:21to start there's a problem and the big
14:23problem is there's a focus on the
14:25outside we've talked about this before
14:26but the game is not really against you
14:29and the defender it's really you inside
14:31here all right that's what's going to
14:32determine whether or not you take this
14:33player on and you do all the things that
14:35we already talked about you have to
14:37understand where your focus should be
14:39your concentration is on trying to get
14:41better every single day every single
14:43game all of the trainings all of those
14:45games they're all for you to make you a
14:47better more whole rounded player and
14:49person so focus on you and what you can
14:53do and that will kill your anxiety
14:56[Music]
15:01be honest with Will some of you just
15:04aren't practicing enough you don't get
15:07enough repetitions 1 V one is about
15:10repetition how comfortable you are in 1
15:13V one comes down to your repetitions
15:15some of you guys are at the field doing
15:17all sorts of other stuff and kicking the
15:19ball from Midfield not carrying most of
15:21the time that's never going to bring you
15:22anything in the game if you truly want
15:24to take a player on 1V one it's got to
15:26be a move that you understand and you
15:27can do with your eyes closed
15:29you've got to have that level of
15:31confidence and when you do you will take
15:32players on and they will have no idea
15:34what to do with you because you'll have
15:35a ton of different skills that you
15:37repeat it over and over again and that
15:39will make you a true
15:48baller Point number one when mistakes
15:52happen you stop and if you're wandering
15:55if you're wandering what's going on with
15:57my voice that's my real voice you guys I
16:00only talk like this because J Mike can't
16:02understand a word that I'm saying in my
16:03real accent I'm from Kansas that's how
16:05we talk it's not but that's what they
16:08think so I just let them believe that
16:09it's anyway point is that when mistakes
16:12happen you should not stop the most
16:14common this is the most common and it's
16:16hilarious because this is the first one
16:18and it's the one that I saw every single
16:20time from every single place that I've
16:22played in the world I've played on many
16:24different continents in the top leagues
16:26right and when the young players get a
16:28chance to play at the highest level what
16:30happens they go they make a mistake they
16:32put their head down everyone screams at
16:35them everyone's there's no time once you
16:37become a pro right because some of you
16:39guys have aspirations to become Pros
16:40some of you guys are just playing for
16:41fun the point is is that when you're on
16:43the field all of the guys who are
16:45veterans that have been there they know
16:47that the time that you take sulking
16:49around thinking oh what happened why did
16:51I miss that pass why did I miss that
16:52shot all that stuff the other team is
16:55played they don't care no one cares they
16:57pass they move they get out
16:59right and most of the time when you put
17:01your head down you miss an opportunity
17:03for you to make up for the mistake that
17:04you just made so when you make mistakes
17:07in the game do not put your head down
17:09keep going always keep going little
17:11bonus here today from the wilster you
17:13will notice that every single point that
17:14we have today will help you on the field
17:16and off on to the next
17:20[Music]
17:23one you only do work when you're forced
17:26to do work if you think that that's a
17:28good habit to have you are confused by a
17:30whole lot because the very first thing
17:32we have to know is that you want to be
17:34there you want to get better you love
17:36the game and this is why okay if you
17:38know why you're there if you know why
17:40you're playing if you know why you love
17:41the game then you can go and do anything
17:44you will endure the tackles the pain the
17:46trainings the late nights the early
17:48mornings all those things will be very
17:49easy for you to handle but if you're in
17:51a position right now where the Habit is
17:53I'm only going to do a little bit of
17:54extra training if they make me do it
17:57don't expect success to happen don't
17:59expect things to get better don't expect
18:01anything right you can expect what you
18:03put in if you put in a lot of work if
18:06you put in the right smart kind of work
18:08not overtraining then you can expect to
18:11get something from it right that's what
18:13we want you guys to understand and if
18:15you can do that and if you can look for
18:16ways to put in extra work where you know
18:18you're going to get a return the beauty
18:21of getting in the habit of doing more
18:22than what's expected from you is that
18:24only a little bit will bring you a ton
18:27more not everybody wants to do extra
18:29running not everybody wants to do extra
18:30training not everybody wants to meditate
18:32visualize to do all those things by you
18:34doing just a little bit it can send you
18:36Way Beyond where everybody else
18:38[Music]
18:44is you're performing in training but not
18:47in games everybody's got one of these
18:50guys on their team and maybe it's you
18:54now this is something that all of us
18:56will go through at some point in our
18:58football fall in days it's okay the
19:00point is that you got to notice if this
19:02is a habit are you hitting Banger after
19:04Banger in training and then come gain
19:06time and it's just
19:09like that's the sound of your shot what
19:12are you going to do about that right
19:14well the point is that you need to First
19:15identify that that is what's going on
19:17how come I keep doing it in training but
19:19I can't in games the very first point
19:21that I noticed is that most players that
19:23have this issue have decided that
19:25training and games are different right
19:28and some of you guys are well it is
19:29different will my girlfriend's here
19:31everybody's watching the coach is
19:33watching people are there the TV the
19:34camera Crews it's different no it's not
19:37nothing changes about the game the grass
19:39is the same you got to go against These
19:41Guys these guys want the ball you want
19:42to kick the ball in the goal nothing has
19:44changed right yes it's bigger it's open
19:47space yes they're not your teammates Etc
19:50right but the problem is that you made
19:52some sort of switch You' got to turn
19:54that block and you got to use it against
19:55yourself and what that means is that in
19:57training trainings have be games you got
19:59to take the same mentality that you have
20:01in training you got to put that in games
20:02the same one that you think that this is
20:04a game this is serious this is what most
20:06of the time you take a train and you're
20:07just you're relaxed so in the game be
20:10relaxed let it go let it flow you have
20:13to do these things if you haven't notice
20:14the high performing guys they are
20:16enjoying themselves most guys think and
20:19that was a a at 16 with my ability to go
20:22and to train at uh a professional Club
20:24at the highest level in my country and
20:26to see that these guys are just joking
20:28around the whole time the second the the
20:29whistle comes on Boom they're serious
20:32let your mind flow relax take the same
20:35mentality that you have training on
20:37having fun on relaxing on trying to get
20:39better if you can make the game about
20:42you getting better at everything every
20:43aspect of your life then you my friends
20:45will take your training abilities and
20:47you will crush it in the game we've got
20:49a mid video crossbar that's
20:53right mid video crossbar my friends
20:56let's hit it and oh let me put it over
20:58here I don't want you guys to miss this
21:01want people saying well you don't hit
21:02the crossbar yes he does guy hasn't hit
21:05a crossbar since
21:071966 boy oh God I think it touched we'll
21:11count
21:16it uh if you haven't noticed I'm stupid
21:20I'm a College Dropout and I can't do
21:22math you guys have seen that in the
21:23latest in the latest videos so where am
21:26I going with this I'm going with the
21:27fact that I have learned from every
21:28single one of my mistakes and not only
21:31that I've learned from the mistakes of
21:32others which is what you should do and
21:34it's a horrible habit for you to have as
21:35a player if you actually think you can't
21:37learn something every single time you
21:39step on the field or from any player no
21:41matter what their level is you see I got
21:43a chance to play and I don't know why
21:45this guy did this I got the chance to
21:46play chess Against The Grandmaster I'm
21:48not good at chess guys he smashed me it
21:50was done in like 20 seconds but you know
21:52what he said the reason people don't get
21:54better at this game is because they
21:55don't learn from their mistakes so don't
21:57be that guy on the field that whiffs
21:59every time that's off sides every time
22:01that loses the ball in bad positions
22:02don't be that guy watch yourself see
22:05what you can do analyze your game and
22:07learn from your
22:12mistakes you watch video after video of
22:17every unisport will John you're just
22:19watching these all the time and what
22:21happens at the end of the day you don't
22:22change is that my fault is that our
22:25fault here at unisport that you don't
22:27change no it's your fault my friends
22:29that's right hard sauce will John
22:30delivering the hard sauce today if you
22:32want to get better as a player you have
22:34to apply everything that you are
22:35learning in this video that's the thing
22:38that matters most you can watch all
22:39these things you can look at Ronaldinho
22:41do this you can watch Messi do that
22:42mbappe goes here if at the end of the
22:44day you don't take the stuff and you
22:45don't go start training you won't get
22:46better all right can I get a
22:54ball let's just a second guys we're
22:57going to take this really slow I would
22:59like to get a ball
23:03please I don't I have nothing the days
23:06of hunting like a rabid dog for the ball
23:09like in 1974 are over now it's time to
23:13be a little bit more strategic with the
23:14way that you play We Are Defenders we
23:17must actually think where and how our
23:19shape should be that's the world you
23:21live in now so if you are a Defender
23:23notice that Pros don't run around like a
23:25chicken with their head cut off they
23:26actually look to see where's my teammate
23:30who's going to put pressure on the ball
23:31they organize if you want to become a
23:33better Defender you become a better
23:35organizer all right so you start to look
23:37at the field you start to look at the
23:38the game as a system if this guy goes
23:41over there it's am I going to need to
23:42cover who's going to press all those
23:45things are the only things that matter
23:46to you as a pro as a guy who's also
23:49trying to become a better Defender think
23:51about where I can be on the field that I
23:52can put pressure or where I can cover
23:54for my teammates be hyper focused on
23:57this you will be become a better
23:58Defender it goes without saying my
24:00friends but diving in is a no no we
24:03don't know how many times to say this we
24:05know that your coaches have probably
24:06gotten on you about this you cannot dive
24:08in you will save yourself as long as you
24:10are not in the box if you are not in the
24:12box contain use your teammates use the
24:15field the biggest point you guys are
24:17going to pick up from this video today
24:18is that you got to start using your
24:19brain more as a Defender some of you
24:21guys think that you're not good as a
24:22Defender but the truth is that you've
24:23got to just take a second to calm down
24:25and think calm down and let the game
24:27come to you
24:28that's the best the best defenders if
24:31you look at the guys in the game today
24:32the ones you all remember from bersel
24:34and Dyke from Sergio Ramos Pepe all
24:37these guys they actually let the game
24:38come to them and when you do that you
24:40can realize I don't want to dive in I
24:42wait for my moment once this player
24:43takes his touch boom I tackle not with
24:46just my leg my full body that's exactly
24:48how you should do it the very last thing
24:49you need as a Defender is the ability to
24:51tell the future my friends that's right
24:53you need to be psychic you need to
24:55understand patterns understanding
24:57patterns is a matter of looking at and
24:59understanding the game in a way that
25:00allows you to anticipate what is going
25:02to happen because you know your
25:04teammates around you and you know the
25:05game every time this guy goes down he
25:08goes to his right every time he goes to
25:10his left these are the things you need
25:11to know I have a very fast left back he
25:13likes to leave well every time they kick
25:15the ball behind him I've got to know
25:17that I'm going to be there all right so
25:18you got to be able to cover for your
25:20teammates that's what anticipation is
25:22that's what the best Pros do they cover
25:24for everybody and on top of that if you
25:26are going to be the guy the real
25:27Defender that everybody wants to love
25:29and have on their team you've got to
25:31cover for your guys also offensively and
25:33that means scoring goals when you can
25:35getting up on the corners and also if
25:36somebody crushes a teammate of yours you
25:38make sure that you get stuck in Legally
25:40on that next
25:42tackle now five mistakes five that
25:46Strikers are always making the very
25:47first one being you are not prepared to
25:49score that might sound crazy but a
25:51Striker's goal the only thing that
25:53matters is putting the ball in the back
25:55of the net why aren't you always
25:57prepared your touch the way you angle
25:58the ball why aren't you turned and ready
26:01for the ball to come into you so you can
26:02then take that first touch and shoot or
26:04better yet especially when a cross is
26:06coming in set yourself up check boom go
26:10goal always prepare to score no Striker
26:13has ever gotten better just because he
26:14smashed the ball harder it's about
26:15Precision when you go to train you take
26:17the time you pick a spot on the goal and
26:20you put it away over and over it's the
26:22repetitions that matter that's what will
26:24make you a better player so the next
26:26time you go to train instead of just
26:27smashing the as hard as you can set up
26:30make sure it's game likee and then boom
26:33goal that's how you change you also have
26:35to remember one thing you are not the
26:37only player on the field you're not the
26:39only player that can score and you are
26:41not the only one that has to do it for
26:42the team so instead of trying to dribble
26:44the ball every single time use a little
26:47bit of misdirection we're not saying
26:48that you can't dribble what we're saying
26:50is choose your points choose your time
26:52to dribble sometimes combine sometimes
26:55you dribble make sure that the direction
26:57that you are going is is never one that
26:59the defender already understands that's
27:01what's going to make you a better player
27:02and that's what's going to make you a
27:03dynamic Striker don't make that mistake
27:06now all things being said if you have
27:07one skill if you have one style that is
27:11always allowing you to score that's
27:13trouble because eventually a team is
27:15going to come around and they're going
27:16to figure out this guy always goes left
27:18now unless you're messy that's not going
27:20to work for you the way that you train
27:21this is by going into the game and going
27:23into trains with an understanding that
27:25you have to have all options that's what
27:27makes it very hard to defend sometimes
27:29you stand behind the defender sometimes
27:30you stand in front sometimes you take
27:31him on 1 V one sometimes you play one
27:34touch you have to always be changing
27:36your style of play that way you as an
27:38attacking player will always be
27:40unpredictable now none of this will
27:41matter at all if you have a mentality
27:44every time that you get a chance to
27:46score go there be there it doesn't
27:48matter if you miss one if you miss 10 if
27:50your team is losing your mentality is
27:52what makes you a beast on the field and
27:54that my friends is giving up now I'm not
27:56saying that every single one of you is
27:58is going to be a pro I'm not saying that
28:00every single one of you guys needs to be
28:01the next Messi mbappe benma Holland
28:05whatever what I'm saying is if you don't
28:07give yourself a chance you won't have
28:09anything anything to play for every time
28:11there's a mistake this is an opportunity
28:13that's what you're not seeing what you
28:14need to do is each and every single time
28:18you hit a setback friends you've got to
28:21get going that is your queue that is a
28:23sign the very first time you tried to
28:24catch a ball you probably missed and the
28:27point is that every single time you try
28:29to do something new you're not going to
28:31be a master at it we want you guys to
28:33cram this into your head we have not
28:35talked about mentality a lot we've been
28:37on skills knuckle balls shoes all this
28:40stuff but the thing is is that you have
28:41to understand where your power comes
28:44from as a player you don't get anywhere
28:46without your brain you don't get
28:47anywhere without visualizing you don't
28:48get anywhere without having your
28:49thoughts under control so many of the
28:51players that we coach have problems with
28:55anxiety where am I where where
28:58you see what I'm talking about guys
29:00shade
29:01me thank you to get to this level of
29:05confidence it takes time it takes you
29:07pushing it takes you knowing that you've
29:09got it within you which all of you do it
29:11doesn't mean you all have to be the top
29:13but the best within you you
29:15[Music]
29:19have now you're probably thinking what
29:21do I do now the fact that You' decided
29:23not to give up the fact that you've made
29:24a clarification on who and what you want
29:26to be on the field that's the very first
29:28part I'm not going to quit every time I
29:30hit a setback I will figure it out start
29:32to tell yourself this start to
29:34understand this because out of the
29:36nearly 100 all right over a 100 top
29:40level players that I have interviewed
29:42that we as a collective here at unisport
29:43have interviewed they say the same thing
29:46their mind is right they start there and
29:48it's not just the the day before the
29:50game you guys this is a lifestyle these
29:52guys live this it doesn't mean that it's
29:54an obsession and you can't live the rest
29:55of your life but if you don't have a way
29:57of visual visualizing yourself before
29:59the game meditating thinking having good
30:02feelings about the game before it's
30:03there when it's 3 4 days before you
30:06won't be at your top all right so if you
30:07want to take this seriously and if you
30:09want to do something with this take 15
30:11minutes every day that's our challenge
30:14for you unisport challenge let's go
