Positional Play coaches must understand individual & collective AUTOMATISMS & how to instill them. Collective automatisms cannot occur optimally unless every player masters individual automatisms - instinctive techniques for properly positioning body, receiving, passing etc.

Explanation: “pragmatic” means Berhalter wants a JdP style, but most USMNT players are a product of a US youth club system that did not train them for it so let’s play long ball & use our “athletes”. “Romantic” means trying to train players in JdP at this late career stage.

DanLaPoche My point is the US youth club structure does not produce players with abilities to play modern styles like JdP & it’s too late to teach this when players are “the best” & reach the USMNT. Unlike Spain, the US youth club culture is about “Big Box” clubs & closed “elite” leagues.

This crap is way too common in HS and college women’s games. Pathetic.

Carli Lloyd is that person where someone puts together a powerpoint for her and then she reads it word for word as it's on the screen. Alexi Lalas is that person where someone puts together a powerpoint for him and doesn't read any of what's on the screen. Neither works.

Big fan of getting the most out of the same variation with small changes. Game within a game.

Hfd151 The root/biggest issue is NOT development of youth. The root issue is at the professional level - the fact it is monopolized.

Derek Szanto Tom Byerトム•バイヤー The whole pipeline matters, from cradle to grave. Culture is king, but the wrong culture and incentives at the pro level will systematically destroy any talent pool at the beginning of the pipe.

Los movimientos sin pelota alejan al rival, facilitan que la superioridad sea eficiente y con ello la posibilidad de encontrar al hombre libre por detrás de la línea de presión. No acercarse a poseedor, siempre ubicarnos en una equidistancia entre rivales. FC Andorra de Eder Sarabia

This my dad right here 👇 My whole life he has talked about Maradona, the greats that came before I was born. And now I get to see him happy as he was in 1986. He’s the reason why I love football so much. I am most happy for HIM! VAMOS CANTOR! Love you, papi 💙 ANDRES CANTOR

Celebrating a World Cup win is one thing, but being able to celebrate such a win with your own blood and someone who got you into the sport is even better. I'm sure a ton of Argentines are able to share these beautiful father-son moments like Nico & Andres are sharing right now.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THROW-INS 🧵(1/23) --- Everything changed when I started to listen Thomas Gronnemark what he had to say about throw ins and how important they are in today's game. Thread has an educational purpose.

Failure for the USWNT. It was a complete disaster. It starts at the top in MLS. You may wonder why I bring up MLS here, who operate on the men’s side, but it’s all connected. MLS runs soccer in this country. They heavily influence our governing body. MLS cares only about MLS.
