Yes, yes, yes! It’s challenging in US culture but in the right environment, totally doable to promote creativity for players.

Yep!

When you see and appreciate the game from the perspective of Ray Hudson there is no going back. It’s enlightenment. As far as English language commentary goes, he is Messi. It’s far more than a job. It’s art, genius and the highest level of entertainment.

Very valid points here!

Talent, Mindset & Culture. I’ve been on multiple national champion teams & I’ve been on teams that couldn’t qualify for nationals. Each team had enough talent. Not all of the teams had the champion mindset and culture, yet. Without those you have no chance. Prioritize

This biggest mistake I see many coaches, athletes and parents make is to believe that quantity is most important. We have to take action, but quality and purpose of our action is most important. Doing things can move us forwards, or backwards.

The street instills joy, creativity, imagination and self expression! Street ⚽️ is vital to develop truly talented and creative players that know how to go for it! Youth ⚽️ in 🇺🇸 needs to develop a street soccer culture. More futsal courts in neighborhoods!!!

Final Third | The Foundations At U8–U12, the message isn’t “you play in this position”. It’s “you start from this position.” Teach players to read the game by roles (possessor, receiver), not by fixed positions like winger or striker.

It's not run slow to run fast... It's run a lot of easy to give you the foundation and capacity to handle and absorb all sorts of moderate to hard training. They work in concert. You don't just magically get faster by lots of easy. It supports the rest.

You want to become a coach? Skip the certifications. Go sit at the top of the stands and watch any practice with a good coach. Leave your phone. Just watch. Observe the interactions and responses to the coach by the athletes. Read the emotion, fatigue, and reactions.

When Messi realised he had won the World Cup at last. 🥹😭 All the players went to hug him while kneeling with emotion 🫩😪

Football is chaos. If your players don’t know what to look for, they’ll latch onto anything—ball, voice, opponent. Give them better reference points: 📍 Clear roles 📍 Clear intentions 📍 Clear principles

Great perspective!

Messi is truly a genius.

There must be a why. There must be a purpose!

You gotta love coaches who truly care!!

Such an important and far too undervalued factor!

💯- I avoid the word perfect for this very reason.
