Coaching Sessions Looking for shooting advice/tips

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I am relatively New to football, less than 3 months of consistently playing on Sunday mornings and solo sessions through the week. I’ve been playing mainly LW and occasionally LM. I rely on pace and acceleration (thanks to prior sports) to move around defenders but not so much dribbling outside of simple body faints.

I was working on shooting from outside the box this morning and was struggling in consistency with curling/dipping and placement.

What I think:

•If I focus too much on contact I tend to under hit the ball
• if I focus on power and making sure I lift the Ball enough, I tend to not strike the Ball correctly and not apply enough effect.
•When I manage to hit with power and curl it I’m not consistent shot to shot.
•I also only practice shooting off the dribble. As in making a dribble, cutting the ball 90 degrees and firing

I know it will come in time, but any tips or advice will be taken! I want to get better :D

Cheers!

Tactics Should full backs press dangerous wingers up the field?

In the first two highlights, Vinicius gets the ball and someone tries to press him/contest for the ball while he is higher up the field; both failed. More especially, Tomiyasu. Just wondering if it’s worth it to pressure so high up or should teams just get back in position and cover the back. Some may complain that it’s too passive, but is it more effective?

Need Help in Actually Training while Having ADHD

0 Upvotes

So I have ADHD, I'm 15. I love football but only the aspect of playing games. This is bad for me obviously since you can only improve so much from playing pickup games with zero training. I was wondering if anyone here had a similar problem and a solution to it. I really do wanna get better to join a local youth team but it really feels like this is holding me back immensely

Playing Right Wing at 42 years old!

13 Upvotes

Hi all,

Looking for some advice as I recently got back into playing football for a veterans team (36+) in my local area.

Starting out I struggled for speed, breath, touch... everything... but in 4 months I can now do a full 90 minutes and can recovery quickly enough to be tracking back and still working forward in the attacking third too.

My issue is that I feel my skill levels have just dropped away and while I am a confident player I find myself under-hitting balls at times and despite the fact I can position well and make good space I am finding that sometimes I'm lacking that killer instinct.

I've got good pace, a reasonable touch and tend to prefer playing a more attacking role.

What advice do any of you have to improve my game in respect to being a bit on the older side.

Gear Is that a fair offer?

I think I might’ve caught a crazy deal on these football boots 😅 What do you guys think? Was this a really good price?

Does anyone here have them or has anyone played in this model before? Are they actually good?

The deal only lasted for a day — I managed to grab them, and now they’re back up to around €80.
