“Know the enemy & know yourself; in a hundred battles you will never be in peril” – Sun Tzu
The key to individual development for players is self-awareness. Enable them to appreciate and cultivate their identity, then watch them soar!

The next level for strikers, scoring outnumbered without clear sight of the goal, Kane is the pinnacle! And ALWAYS in control!

The Anatomy of an Elite Strike: Why Harry Kane is the Ultimate "9" 🎯⚽️ They say the best strikers don't just see the goal; they feel it. Last night, Harry Kane’s second goal against Atalanta wasn't just a record-breaking 50th in the Champions League—it was a masterclass in technical execution under extreme duress. In a modern game where "tight spaces" are the norm, Kane showed why he remains the gold standard. Here is why that specific strike was so special: • Composure in the Chaos: Receiving the ball with his back to goal and two defenders (Hien and Sulemana) draped over him, most players would have looked for a recycle. Kane didn't. He used his physical frame to shield the ball, absorbing the contact while maintaining his balance. • The "Tight Space" Turn: In a fraction of a second, he executed a sharp, instinctive turn. Despite the lack of room, his footwork was immaculate, moving the ball just far enough away from the defenders to create a shooting lane that didn't exist a moment prior. • Striking "Across" the Ball: This was the genius moment. Even while off-balance, Kane understood the geometry of the situation. By striking across the ball with ferocious power, he ensured the trajectory took it away from the goalkeeper, Marco Sportiello, and into the far top corner. • The Result: A rising shot that left the keeper a spectator. It wasn't just about power; it was about the spatial awareness to know exactly where the keeper was positioned and choosing the one angle he couldn't reach. In business as in football, the ability to execute with precision when the pressure is highest and the margins are thinnest is what separates the great from the legendary. 50 goals in 66 games. Faster than Ronaldo. Level with Henry. The Harry Kane era at Bayern Munich is something to behold. 📈 #HarryKane #UCL #BayernMunich #FootballAnalysis #TechnicalMastery #ElitePerformance #ChampionsLeague

62' - LATICS STRIKE FIRST! 🤩 Posing a threat from a corner, the subsequent kick by Fraser Murray causes pinball in the box, before the ball falls to Jensen Weir on the edge, whose first time strike finds the bottom corner! Get in! 👏 (1-0) | #wafc 🔵⚪️

With that same ‘good vs bad’ logic there’s so much in this practice that’s ‘bad’ that it also shouldn’t be used by anyone (which would be unhelpful to say), language is important when sharing insight, no wonder grassroots coaches are so confused, let’s be better

Bad passing drills are static, boring and repetitive. Good passing drills are short, sharp and free flowing. Try this passing drill, where players never stop moving: [ryouyapassarinho0616]

The best and most successful players I’ve worked with all had a common trait, they were exceptionally fast learners, they made mistakes and learned from them quickly, often enhancing understanding for both of us, Fail fast, fail often, learn quickly

@CoachGavM @CoachPrunt @TimLees10 Tim’s been a massive influence and mentor, I’d highly recommend his work on this topic

@CoachPrunt @TimLees10 I have not Michael, I will have to take a look. Best place to dive into it?

I love 1v1 exercises, but lately, especially working with U7/U8 players, I’ve found they’re not always as productive as we hope.
So I started rethinking them. 🧵

@almockf In England a toe bung, in Brazil a great piece of skill, go figure! ⚽️

Toe poke? Deceptive and rapid…. Might be something in that 😊
.@saundzo
Quick-release toe-pokes are effectively like jabs (🥊) through how they can ‘sting’ (🐍) the opponent through speed, direction & timing. Goalkeepers are looking for rhythm & body language cues to anticipate the shot, but a quick-release distorts that time of preparation
