Just got off the phone with parent of player from Cat 1 club. ‘They don’t do any technical work’ Unfortunately this is a common message I’m getting a lot.

The environment doesn’t coach players — coaches do. Great environments still need great guidance. Real coaching is knowing when to step in, when to step back, and how to connect the two. ⚽

Coaches — don’t overlook the low-hanging fruit. 🍎 The quickest gains often come from improving players’ ball mastery and movement on the ball. ⚽ Get those right, and everything else — decision-making, confidence, game impact — improves.

Top wingers train with purpose ⚽️ 1️⃣ Receive on the move 2️⃣ Break pressure 3️⃣ Play forward — shot, pass, or cross Master these and you’ll dominate 1v1s. Comment WINGER for the Pro Winger Session Notes..

Checkout the MyFootballCoach Next Gen Virtual Academy where we took a deeper dive into the goalscoring of Phil Foden and his average distance of 18.1 yards for his goals. Some real key technical and tactical details to consider! mypersonalfootballcoach.com/the-virtual-ac…

A U10 player I work with has recently been signed by a Cat 1 club — and was told he’s technically the best player in the age group. Extraordinary thing to say. Is that a reflection on: 1️⃣ The players? 2️⃣ The club’s technical program? 3️⃣ The recruitment process? 🤔

True football nations are built from the bottom up, not the top down. Most countries challenges, lie in grassroots, early skill acquisition, and education, not a lack of elite players. They treat the symptoms instead of curing the disease. Without a focus on domestic youth

The game-based approach is important — but not enough on its own. Without time on the ⚽️, players never develop true mastery. Balance is key: game realism + technical repetition = complete development. ⚽ #FootballCoaching #PlayerDevelopment #BallMastery #SoccerCoaching

Love this mate 👌🏻 Football is all about ‘chunking ‘ , breaking the full game into its parts , working on them parts individually , then chunking them back together in the games

Technique builds confidence. Confidence builds creativity. Creativity changes games. ⚽

After years of working with governing bodies and pro teams, one thing is clear: most countries don’t produce top players because too few people truly understand player development. Visionaries are rare, and that’s the real gap.😉⚽️

Players look sharp in drills but freeze in trials. Without a pre-game system to calm nerves + focus, confidence collapses. We fix that at Next Gen Club. Comment CONFIDENCE and I’ll send the Game-Day System. ⚽️

It’s not about longer sessions. It’s about sequence + intensity. 45 minutes of purpose beats 2 hours of random drills every time. Comment SEQUENCE for the 45-min map that transforms players. ⚽️

Coaching isn’t about doing less — it’s about doing better. Guidance, feedback, and repetition help players turn potential into performance. The best environments still need great coaching. ⚽
