@huntbug1 because it swnds f*****g gay
@Dawntele if your good at shooting but not that fast you should probably play center midfield, you shouldnt play stricker because pace is very important up forwards i mean you need to be the fastest, and center back would put your good shoot to waste wing back or wing midfielder are positions which require extreme speed and stamina as well as good crossing ability. if your a good passer and can read the came well mid field is your position. hope that helped
who gives a shit what its called. why is it such a big deal.
these explains are basic cause the video is 4 the stupid americans who don’t know what football(not soccer!!)is
What position should I be? I run kind of fast but I’m excellent at shooting.
what kind of defending 4 is that?
dude soccer and football its still the same…
football….not soccer.
Good explaining bro
you should play mid field or forward, thats what i do, im sort off like you
midfeid
@Ashterrs forward
super basics explanations
@Ashterrs a striker
i run sooooo fast and shoot kinda good what position should i be?
strikers help there midfield and other strikers by scoring goals?
what about holding the ball up and keeping it for the team and playing balls to the wingers so they can get in behind the defence theres alot more to strikers than just scoring goals
Why are your 2 central defenders overlapped? Nobody plays like that.
you suck
why are you watching if you know then yamane
outside left and outside right and then your striker which is the player that is looked for gettin the ball to, to get the ball into the bak of the net.
wow u are retarted and dont know anything about soccer u didnt explain anything about the positions. there arent only 3 positions there are 11. there are 3 different types of players offence defence and mid. then in def theres the keep, stop, sweeper outside rght, and outside left, then mid field the outisides and central who is the key player on the field because he is the player that SHOULD be played through. then your forwards.
@soldierkiller29 Far Post and near Would normally be in a free kick ( foul againist another player ) I would of thought far and near post would of been marking them in a free kick…..
how does defense suck? plus i so do nt suck @ watever ur refering me 2
sweeper is last defender and commands defense and stopper marks up on the best forward
nt sure about posts
