A Pro’s Simple Secrets to Getting Scouted at Trials or Try-Outs

First

Can you do a band workout video PLEASE!! THANKS! LOVE YOU VIDEOS!

question for you. What would a coach be looking for in a CM role? Based on the players you've played with, what sets the CAM or #8 apart?

How to showcase my defensive awareness?

Could you make a video about giving tips on how to get a healthier mentality?
I'm obsessed with wanting to be a professional footballer, I've started at 12 and began taking it seriously at 14 which makes me have to do a lot more work just to catch up. I'm slowly making progress but not as fast as I want. Its gotten to the point where I begin to overwork myself and with the pressure of "wanting to be the best" and overthinking it has really affected me with how I train alone. I'm 15 now and still trying to master the basics like passing, receiving, juggling and football mastery which makes me even more pressured in wanting to be the best.
As of now, I've been resting for 2 weeks since I don't know how to go on from here and also trying to avoid burn-out. But even then, the back of my mind cant help but think about becoming a professional footballer and pressuring me about how much I'll fail by "resting" right now.

hi matt I can't wait to see you on video call ive been watching your videos it inspired me to play like a footballer and I hope you're advice can help me to do more

matt is so disney channel now

matt i have to disagree
nr 1 at the highest levels u dont want to be a one trick pony u need to be good at allot of things so telling players to get good or specilaise at one thing is actually harmful advice because in football why would i take a guy whose good at crossing when i can get a guy whose good at crossing intercepting defenidng heading scoring/ finnishing etc etc u must be good at everything not just 1 thing
nr 2 yes i agree what u do on the ball is importnant but what u do off the ball is even more importnat your offensive positioning of finding space or getting relaistically open while maintain ur position discipline is very importaant and showcases iq even better and even ur defensive positioning is extremely important too
im not saying wanting to ge on the ball is bad but if u ignore the above u will just look like some ball hog who cant do anything good really with it
and at higher levels of play player and coaches want effectiveness

Da Goat 🐐🐐

I think the players who play simple and do the little things so we’ll have a better chance of making it then the kid trying to be that flashy winger

Which program should I buy from become elite if I want to train my crossing, pings, dribbling like you

Thanks for the video💪🏾

Wow u tried out for whitecaps? I love there

hi Matt, I was wondering if you could make a video on how to master first touch individually with just a ball.

Errr, my 12 year old son has a trial with a League 2 side in France in 2 weeks and I'd say If I had to choose one thing his speciality as a left footed centre back is...... flashy 1v1 dribbling ...😟 ??
Please advise......? 😂

I'm not joking , he currently plays for a league 3 side academy and is very calm on the ball and good technically , press resistant and a excellent passer but yes, he does like a dribble out from the back and breaking the lines when he see's a chance and then set up the offensive players with a through ball and once he gets moving on a run because of his size he's very hard to stop

So saying what you said made me laugh !

Football infrastructure and senior teams in Türkiye are incompetent, the education given is terrible, football has become very terrible here, in these situations I follow you and follow your advice and feel my development, thank you.

matt , are u going grey ?

Where will the call be on your channel ?

As sad as it is to say, if you are trying to go pro in the US it will not work and if it does you still have to have part time jobs. Also, if you’re poor or aren’t financially succeeding then you will not go pro in the US. The US has made it practically impossible for people without tons of money to make it pro. It’s really sad, and then even if you are going to a different country for a program they still want you to pay thousands, or even if you get scouted you still have to pay for expenses. So it’s a cooked situation, no matter how much practice you put in.

Didn't make the bench again, time to buy some Oscar, get rich af and retire old man

When is the next Detroit fc tryout bro

Another invaluable episode.. Thanks Matt.

I have a question do you have any programs you recommend that actually help us improve and keep up with the players or be better than them?

Could you do a video covering your opinion on MASL in comparison to other pro leagues
