Imagine Ederson from Man City still playing as a full back😂
I could easily imagine it
STD Steve 4goals per match 😂
Na, he would do what he Did against Leicester City.
😂😂
Then Kyle Walker in goal
Played as striker i miss the open chance..played as winger gotta left behind...played as midfield cant even hold the ball, played as defender i score own goals, guess what...everyone ask me to be a goalie...and never got a clean sheet...im done...now i play fifa 19😂
One major factor for those who succeed, is that they never give up or loose faith in their self. Even when they hit rock bottom. If you belive in your self and look realisticly on the hard and painful road ahead you can do what you want. So keep on fighting.
Well actually try and practice
The difference b/w a winner and failure is that winners never quit and quitters never win
Never give up
biskut beras Just Go To attacking mid
I play as a striker in a regional league in Portugal. I'm really strong when holding defenders and decent in 1v1, a really good header but I'm working on my volleys. My coach trusts me all the time, even though I'm the youngest player on the squad. By the time being (23 games out of 30) I have 13 goals and 3 assists, we're 4th 7 points away from 1st.
Keep it up!
Bro.
I want to be a footballer but where am from ,there aren't any opportunities, can you help?
how old are u?

@@agnusdei.4915why is he pretending he just trying to speak the most understandable language in the world
As I played my first match with my dad and his friends, my dad asked me to play LB / RB. It's still my favorite position today, after 6 years
Are you right or left footed?
Good , after playing as a defender
Me plays the same but now iam lacki in speed and its no use to be a lb or rb without speed if you overlap u cant underlap in time 😖 so now iam out from starting 11 👨🦯
@@TheSound_OfSilence_ Mate try to play smart. You can talk to your coach about being more of the third CB while your team is attacking. Practice your awareness of predicting loss of possession to stay awake all the time, in case your team gets countered. And also, practice your footwork to be able to keep the ball circulating through the backline with you and distribute the ball smart. Good luck
@@jerrycarspotting2286 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥👌
anybody else having difficulty figuring out on what u r good at😅
Can't chose if I should play mid or wing
I can play every where apart from striker and defender
But I am decent at defence
Maybe a Box to Box midfielder like De Jong or if you have pace then play RCM or LCM maybe?
You sound like a CDM to me
Same
I’m playing middle school football ,
I’m 5’6 and weigh 130 lbs ,
What position would y’all recommend
@@xaf2767 winger or cm
I play in
CAM mostly
Left/right wings if needed
Cm if I need to hold my team and get some assist
And st because I can do good there too
Your positions are literally the same as mine
This video came out at the perfect time, when I came home from practise today I was so demotivated because I currently play as a striker, but I struggle to score goals. I even asked myself if I just should quit, but I want to try out a more defending position, like a right or left back, and after watching this video I got motivated to try and talk to my coach about trying out a right back position even though my team has too many. Thank you so much for these great videos, they help a lot!
Go for it!
xiRept i have a friend like you, he always wants to play as a striker his shooting power and finishing are terrible, but in the CDM position he has the strength and the agression and he knows how to stand and slide tackle and contain
First started as a goalie, then switched to Striker, then Left Wing, then Left back. Now I play perfect football as a CAM/CF
Body size and shape makes a key feature too...goalie, centre backs, just suit tall folks better, midfielders tend to be shorter with low centre of gravity, etc
Definitely
What abt wingers?
@@AD-ge1bz no one cares about wingers, mate :-P
@@LoveBagpipes Should a winger be tall?
@@AD-ge1bz I think it's more important that they are fast...but it depends how the coach has them set up to play too...he might prefer a tall winger, or a short one
It's a more dynamic position then a CB or Keeper in that regard
Height does assist in speed though...ground covered per step, with the rate of stepping (a bit on acceleration and breaking, etc, that can add and detract)...obviously a smaller person will have to pump those legs alot harder than a tall person to achieve the same speed; but can be more agile, and have a better rate of acceleration :)
I started as a side back... But as time passed my dribbling,passing and ball control improved....i was making good assists.. so my teammate who was also the captain of my club asked me to play as a midfielder as he thought i had the potential to orchestrate attacks... And now after 7 years i know he asked me to do the right thing ☺️
Nice
I play as a RB
Strengths: Ball control, tackling, speed, 1v1 s
Weaknesses: first touch, passing and setting up teamates
Edit: I'm also bad at heading
Edit: I improved on my passing and left foot, now my passing is great, I also improved alot in my shooting
I have the opposite
If you would improve passing then you could Play winger ☺
@Anti Toxic if you could play cdm but not in a 433 when you dictate play but in a 4231 as a cdm in a two so you could tackle a speed burst into the final third then lay it of and drop back could also play cam in a 4231 or 443
@Anti Toxic as long as you have found where you are good I'm good for people wasting my time
I'm just like you,
I play basically anywhere I play in
GK, CB, RB, CM, RM CAM and as a false 9 but prefere CDM
Same bro
not taking away from you used to be like that, but if you don’t settle in one position and focus on the skills required, it’s kind of pointless however the higher level you reach, the more versatility they require so good on you. However focus on one! 🙌🏾
Same
Same but I prefer cm
You played as a false 9

Hi Dave, really love your advices they are full of wisdom, God bless you and help you continuing to be a source of inspiration and motivation for many and many more 😊
Thank you so much because now I know what position I am good at Because I thought I could play any position but I found out that I can play CM and CAM Because I am good at assists to my teammates and setting up players and I can really dribble thank you so much 😁
I like to play stricker most of the time, or attacking midfielder.
I just came back for this video, a couple of weeks ago i used your tip and asked my friend whos seen me play and played with me multiple times what position suits me, he said CM, so I did that. It worked and I figured out I was pretty good at it
Cheers! I have now narrowed my list to LW, CAM and ST
2 seasons ago i started as a striker, then on the right wing and now im playing on the right back. I really like playing as a right back.
I started as a defender then played as a goalkeeper for my school team, as I didn’t have the endurance to do much running. Now whenever I play with friends I play goalkeeper or defender, depending on who’s in my team.
Thank you very much Dave
This really helped me 🙏🙏
Keep on ur good work
Started off playing as a goalkeeper for a year or 2 and then change into an attacking player, i forgot which position, then i became a winger and i've been loving it a lot
Im great in dribbling and really good passing . Passing is my main quality i practice my passes everyday and try to improve bit by bit . My idols are Iniesta, Debruyne and Xavi . Im really good in cm , cam and rmf . Im a lefty so i like to stay in the right side of the pitch and curve some shots in . Byw my finishing capabilities aren't that great i really like to assist more than scoring a goal 😅
I started out as a goalie and currently play as a midfielder . Sometimes i get overwhelmed about being so much incontrol of the game that i tense up and lose my train of thought . I always felt comfortable at any fullback position but i love to make those nice passes and can finish from multiple areas . Any suggestions?
tysm, I decided to become a LW instead of striker cause i got pace, dribbling and I like to assist and score. Very helpful video
*Thank you for this video I needed this* 💯⚽️🥅🤞🏿👍🏿 *I play Center back*
Goalkeepers:am i joke to u
Completely different skill set
I currently play as a striker
My strength - speed, ball controll, shooting, and thought am thin strength
Weakness - first touch
Play as a winger
Yavar Ahmad I think you should play as a winger, when you play as a striker you might not get enough space to pace it through the defender, but if you play as a winger, you will have a lot of space to pace it, but it's up to you.
Perfect and one of the best channel ever love you..... Best audio and dictactable
currently im a lb ive only been playing it for abit because i feel good in it and my friends and coach said i would be good in that position i am pacy good dribbling decent shoot decent pass and good defending
I currently play as a LB in my school departmental team. I'm good at: Passing, setpieces, physical strength
I'm bad at: Holding the ball, positioning, tackling, stamina
Bro we are the same except that im good in tackles
started playing as CB cause none of my friends wanted to ,then played as LB and now LW and RW ...still dont know what position i am lol
I'm Playing as a Right / Left back in Sweden for AGIF 05 . My coaches started playing me because i'm very fast and good acceleration i'm strong enough to holding strikers / wingers of and shoving them of the ball. And i'm very good to keep the offside line. And we are just starting the season but last year we got promoted i scord 7 goals and 12 assist.
Thanks a allot bro,
I was really stuck about that.
In my mind it come naturally
Sometimes, but not always
@@SimplySoccer i love watch your video im a striker to from algerie im 18 years old im hope to become pro
Can you make analysis video of pro player please?
I play RW and LW
I currently play LW or RW. I realized that I'm also confident in a RWB position, although my stronger got is the left one, my right foot is pretty accurate
Thanks
Dave that works
Bale was left back??!!!
OMG
You didn’t know?
It’s old now everyone knows that
How he play winger now

Akshaj Dabral fernando torres was a bloody goalkeeper
I play left wing and left back. im really good with skills and crosses but also my defensive game is very good. I have pretty good speed but im not insanely fast. Can ya’ll help me on what I should choose to be my main position?
I think left back, being defensively strong is one of the main features of a good full back and if you feel you arent fast enough then try to pass to midfielders, centre backs or even the right back and let them do the running. Or if you feel your fast enough to get past the players in front of you, then dribble past them and cross it into the striker/centre-forward
Hiit workout and then I will be able to get it
Your explanation is so simple but is so strong also,i think you make more video like this
You helped me alot thanks man!!
I find videos on your channel that other's don't make
I play as midfielder and as left winger
Same
GAME BEAst that's my position too😍
I’m currently a goalkeeper for my HS varsity team but i’ve been wanting to stray away from being a keeper because i’m currently 5’8 (16) and i’m not growing anytime soon. I used to play as a Left-Winger & Left-Back in my earlier days so i’ve been thinking about switching to one of those positions or maybe a CAM. Any suggestions/tips for conditioning and technique?
I started as a striker for our local team under 14, i scored 12 goals and assisted 2 in 15 matches, now i am a very aggressive centre back.
No one:
Not even SimplySoccer:
Bots:don't lie who has been watching SimplySoccer for over a month
Current Positions: Fulback, CDM/CM/CAM, Wide Mid/Winger
Strengths: Height, positioning/tactical awareness, passing, vision, close control
Weaknesses: Strength, pace, weak foot, 1v1 dribbling, tackling
RealFC United I'm almost just like you I'm fast and decent at tackling tho
I was about to say you sound like a Centre Back until I read that tackling is one of your weaknesses. Since pace is also a weakness I’d say you sound like a CM
I play at left mid but am very versatile. Coaches play me everywhere usually on the left side of the field but I can fill in pretty much anywhere.
Strengths: Control, Passing, Vision, Finishing, tackling
Weaknesses: Strength, Pace
I think a goalkeapers soots me alot, good reflexes, good handiling, and i play as a defender at school.
I play as a cam but I think I could play as a striker better
I play CAM, am really very good at dribbling, chance creation and finishing while my weaknesses are low speed, shit stamina and not so strong do you think am on the right track
You can try CDM, since you are good at creating chances, if you work on your defense then it would be great for you
Improve your body! Like speed snd stamina are really important
If you are above 13+ and you’re really weak just quit soccer.
Eat healthy and train for speed and stamina
If u don't have physical strength, I suggest you play on the wings or as CAM good defence and physicality is a must for a CM or CDM
I play Center back but got a lot to improve I started 5 months ago after a 3 year stop of football to focus on school
Strengths-
>Physically strong(can hold my own)
>Fast(use to do track racing)
>aggressive
Weakness
>long ball(ping)
>headers
>left foot
I used to play as a left wing when I was younger and I even outscored our number 9 every season. But then I moved to a whole new country by that time I haven't played football in almost a whole year. Then when I got into a team I for some reason liked having control of the pace and direction the game went. that's how I became a CAM.
I have never played for a club; I just play with my friends.
When I was at elementary school, I used to play as a defender, but I got bored because I wanted to score goals, so after that I started taking offensive roles, but never adopted a specific position until late in high school.
My main position is RM but sometimes I play LW or CF.
If you’re 13+ just don’t try playing soccer.
xd lit why not? 🤔
I play any position on the left side😂
Nice!
Are u a leftie
Tareeq Ayodeji ya
I've never played for a team in my life. Almost all of my football experience comes from playing with friends, and because of that my dribbling, close control and reaction time are quite good and I have decent pace but things like positional awareness and long range shots and passes are really bad. I feel like if I ever play for a team, and I improve on my weak areas I could make a good winger
i want to play for a team but i fear what should i do to improve my self
93
I like diving and a challenging position ,so I chose goalkeeping.And it's also the last hope of defense .
Im a goalkeeper. But my friends said that i have a good shot and pretty good pace xD
You too😂😂😂
I GAVE THIS VIDEO 100 LIKES WHERES MY THANKS
I was a defender until my friends told me that i'm rubbish at defending so i asked my friends,what postition should i play my whole football team said Central Midfield so i train everyday and now i can say that i'm prettygood, thanks alot SimplySoccer love u guys
When I started out I tried to be a striker because I wanted glory, but now I play center back because I'm not so good forward and I'm really precise in tackles and interceptions
LB RB CB CDM LM RM
Everything concerning defence and wing midfield is my post 😅

I always wanted to play as a winger I even went to my first trial and tried as a winger, and here i am 10 years since then and have played under 7 different coaches now in my career and non of them wanted me to play as a winger. Almost everyone of them asked me to play as a centre back as I was always good in tackles, good reader of game and a leader. But I struggled for 3 long years as I have height of 5ft 8in because of that I have always struggled a lot and could never become that dominant centre back in air. But my luck shined when I was asked to play as a full back in an emergency situation. And I established as a full back.
If you are in shape, play forward or outside mid/defense. If you don't like to run, central mid or central defender.
Any goalies?
No just me? Ok 😂😂😂
Tottenham For life Me too

Phew 😅 not just me
Me too
Same bro
If you really need these type of videos to help you, then soccer isn’t the sport for you, sorry it’s the truth.
xd lit exactly! It should come naturally
xd lit soccer???? it's football bitch

Jlaad Libya Who said that? Lmao get off my level kid.
xd lit "MLS" =American footballers
MLS is shit = American footballers are shit🙂
you're American= you're nothing better than American footballers 🙂
I usually play winger because of my pace but lately ive been playing a cdm cm rm and irs going pretty well
I’ve been playing club ever since I was 8 I have played multiple games at every position my favorite position is the attacking mid but right now I have been playing defensive mid I used to like being on offense more but ever since I’ve been playing defensive mid I find defense funner
Currently i don't play at a team but i play as a attacking winger and i can score from far good volleys and also nice headers as i think my weakness is scoring when i get alone with the goal keeper
I play centerback but I often go into midfield and have someone cover up for me. I have horrible finishing/heading but I'm quick, aggressive and can get into favourable positions in both attack and defense. Short passing sucks but I can do long balls. Mostly playing in defence, showing everyone which player they should mark on a corner, and I usually lead counterattacks if I get the ball from my opponent when defending. Mostly go up for numerical superiority in certain areas rather than to got the ball in a specific place/time.
Thanks a lot appreciate bro.
I play as cam but when my team is in need i can play as a lb(where i lack of the techinique of slide tackles)as a gk i can play both wings but my crosses are a little bit low,as a striker but i am not an aerial threat!my best qualities are vision pace distance shooting finishing,free kicks and concetration under preasure!thats the opinion of my coach tho!also i am the captain
I myself am average at running but great at passing and wonderfull at positioning. I am a cm/Rm/Lm. I have been so close to being the top goal scorer of the team but no. I have failed 3 times. But this is my year!
used to play for a youth team in the UK. i played CB/CDM
I’ve experienced playing in every single position on the field. My height is 5’9
Strengths: tactical awareness, passing, pace, strong weak foot, interceptions, speed with ball, crossing and shots
Weaknesses: Strength, decision making at times, stamina, tackling, dribbling(somewhat)
I also always find myself always opening up to the sides. I enjoy playing Fullback and on the wing, I’m just more of a crossed than a player who takes on defenders
What would you guys think would be ideal with the information I gave?
I play Second Striker, Attacking Midfield and even Central Midfield
I have good passing, a great first touch and dribbling, very decent vision and a high workrate to help in attack and even track back, I can pack a mean shot if I get the chance and have decent finishing, I am very unselfish and always look for a passing option or an assist, I'm not pacy, but not slow, you can maybe stick me up into the Right Mid or Left Mid role but I won't do as well due to my pace
I play right winger like my entire life so far on every team but the last couple teams been wanting me to try center mid. Im not fond of the idea and at the time I was stubborn so it hasnt happened that many times. (covid happened so i havent played in a while now) but im trying to move towards center mid instead since my endurance is a little worse so winger maybe isnt the best but my one twos and the way i play helps start chances for my team and I can dictate tempo relatively well.
I am from Scotland and after watching this video I’ve been scouted by 3 of the bigger clubs in Scotland so thanks
your comment seems legit
Congratulation Bot thanks
I play as a CB because my team was full in the positions i wanted (ST and CM) and im decently tall (5'11) for my age (16). Im decent when it comes to defending mainly because of my speed and height. When I play as a midfielder im not too comfortable because i dont really get to flash my pace but when i play as a striker i score basically all the time. I once scored 9 goals against one of my friends in goal and after he told my that he's considering quitting because he felt like he wasnt any good. I talked him out of it.
I play as a centre back. I am have mastered marking and tackling and I also have an eye for a pass. I really wanna try playing as a full back but don’t know if it’s a position I could thrive in. Thoughts?
Played striker was the worst, went to winger/cam now im one of the best in the state
Used to play at rw but I didn’t have the speed but I have the passes and the technique so I’m now gonna play as cm or cam
Positions: Left back, Center back
Strengths: closing down options, insanely accurate crosses and corners for my age and skill level. Blocking a pass/shot
Weaknesses: winning tackles, speed
Go cdm or even cm or even cam not cb you need alot of speed as cb not as a cdm
I play as a Left winger and CF
Strength:pace shoot pass n I’m the fastest player in my team
Weakness:defending
Current positions: LB/RB/CB
I'm quite tall and really quick, decently strong in the tackle with almost perfect slide tackles. I also have a decent pass and am pretty confident in my dribbling abilities.
Despite playing mostly as a sweeper and fullback, I want to move further up the field as I feel wasted in defence.
My team already has lots of defenders so I think I'd have a good shout asking to go forward, except I'm one of the best defenders in my team.
I don't want to weaken the team by leaving our defence but I also want to play a position I enjoy more.
I'm interested in playing a CDM role, either as a ball winner or a box to box midfielder.
Anyone got any suggestions on what I should do?
I mostly play as a CB but I also could play CDM or MD and GK(barely), the things I lacked is dribbling, heading, composure, and intercepting, I mostly play with friends
My strong points are:
Tactical awareness
Slide tackling
Playmaking(short passes)
Through and long balls
Pressure
And communication
Speed
Ball control (working on it)
I guess CDM would be great for you or even CM
I’m really good at passing and playmaking. I also have pretty good awareness and I think good vision. Idk I can’t really grade myself but I just joined a team and wanted to know what position I can help my team at the most.
CAM RW LW
i've needed this
Happy to help!
I play RW, LW, ST and CAM but can play full back or wing back too
Back then I used to play striker and was really good at finishing. Then one day I decided to play midfield and that’s when I started to see I wasn’t really cut up to keep up in going from down and back when we had the ball and when we lost it. Then 2 days ago I decided to switch for striker and made some good runs and wasn’t as tired or out of breath. So maybe this season ima go for striker.
As a kid I switched a lot. I was the only left footed player on my team through elementary school and middle school so in my youth teams I always played as a left back. Though I wasn’t great at tackling I was fast as hell and amazing at shooting so I always took set pieces. Because of this my coach when I was about 14 told me I should switch to the Right Wing. I played much better there cause I’m amazing at crossing and set pieces. But I was really good at scoring goals so my coach wanted me to play in the Center Forward role
Nice yo
I have played for a soccer team once in 4th grade but was bad but now it’s summer time I just finished 9th grade so I wanna start again
I have a defensive mind where I always feel like I should be marking someone but also my build up to a goal is not so bad where I get into decent positioning and make good passes but I can’t finish and sometimes I can’t dribble past players
But I don’t really know my skills because I also played for a school and I’m just shy so if I make a bad mistake I don’t want my friends to make mistakes
Simply soccer can u give me a routine for a cb and a midfielder
I do have ball control and a amazing vision and I have a nice dribbling and shooting but I’m not that fast so I don’t know to play as a center attacker midfielder or a left wing
My first match I played as a goalie and found out I was good at it but it soon became boring so I started moving up the pitch to center back but that didn't turn out so good. So now for the past 3 years I have been playing as a striker and scored over 50 goals and I am on my 3rd season now.
What position would be good for me... im kind of short (171cms) i have average speed, good physical strength, good ground pases. I sometimes played as a center forward because I like to score goals.
