You're welcome!

Glad it was useful Gecko. Let us know how it goes!

Hi Amal, there is no problem at all with you joining the programme to learn more about coaching. You can find out about our courses here: pro7soccer.com/course/

@@Pro7soccer thank you

No not at all. Many top coaches had no or very limited playing careers. Arrigo Sacchi didn't play professionally and won many titles with AC Milan. Maurizio Sarri, formerly manager of Napoli, Chelsea and Juventus didn't play professionally. It helps if you have been a player but it isn't essential and having been a professional player doesn't guarantee that you will be a great coach

You're right, it isn't. The roles do change in actual game play depending on the movement of the opposition however, as a very basic introduction it gets the main points across. There is always more to learn and as you add more players, the game gets more complex.

The difference use to be quite clear based on the formation that a team were playing. With a GK-3-5-2 the two widest players in the 5 tended to be known as wing backs because they attacked and defended the flank areas and in a traditional GK-4-4-2 for example, the two wide players in the defensive back 4 were known as full backs because they only really had defensive responsibilities. However, nowadays, full backs are incredibly attacking and play much more like old-school wing backs. It also depends upon how a coach deploys the full back. Liverpool play with overlapping full backs who could be described as wingers. Man City sometimes play with inverted full backs that end up becoming Holding or Defensive midfielders. Positions are much more fluid in modern day football and there is much more focus on the coach's philosophy of play and the roles and responsibilities that are given to each player. You could have two teams face each other with identical formations on paper that actually play completely different game models. I've recently added some videos that look at Understanding Game Models and Developing Game Models. These are all in the same playlist. They might help with your query. Hope this has helped.

@@Pro7soccer thank you coach...now I understand clearly... I asked this because...I used to play as a wingback...a one who hunger for goals and assist...but the problem is that I am defensively very poor... lacking pace... So I was thinking about changing position .. to centre forward... Do you think that it's a wise decision from me ..??? coach..??

@@AMAL_vijayan it's very difficult to say where you should play without having see you play. It's try that wider players tend to need to be faster as there is more space in wide areas than in central areas so maybe a central position would suit you better but as I say, impossible to be sure having never seen you play. Sorry.

@@Pro7soccer Yes...I used to play CF when I play with my friends... It's very comfortable for me to score goals,to receive balls, to create chances...but when it comes to aerial battle, I'm a little backward, because I am short guy... Well it never bothered me . And thank you

@@Pro7soccer it's okay

Yes, there have been some vary good "shorter" full backs. Roberto Carlos, arguably one of the best full backs ever, is 168cm tall

Thanks Dikoena. More to come soon!

Glad you liked it!

Thanks Mauro. I'm planning on releasing some more videos to help soon. It would be great to get your feedback on those when they are available.

@@Pro7soccer can you make a video on defensive midfielder tactics?

@@maurobalardini4325 Yes of course. that's a good idea. We will look at doing that in the next couple of weeks

More to come soon Ahliddin!

Sorry Gary. Only just seen your comment. Which game was it? Do you know how many? I'm assuming its a lot or none :-)

Thank you. Good to hear

Thanks David

Thank you

Hi Jack, I'm really sorry for the delay in replying. I hadn't realised you had commented and asked a question. The distances will of course vary depending upon the age of player and the size of pitch they are playing on. For a full size adult game you would expect a compact Back 4 to be approximately 10 m apart. This will change depending upon the movement of the opposition obviously but if you take the standard width of a penalty are which is just over 40m (44 yards), then the four players should be within that (if the ball is central). If the ball goes out wide, the Back four keep that approximate distance but move over to the side the ball is on as a unit - remembering that the second centre back shouldn't go much further than the front post and the opposite full back not much more across than the far post of the goal. As I've said though, it depends upon the movement of the opposition and the defenders willl need to react to that. If a centre back gets drawn out of a central position to defend wide, a midfielder should drop in to cover them. I hope that helps! I'm going to release some more vides soon. It would be great to get your feedback on those. Cheers Aaron

@@Pro7soccer Top man, thanks for the thorough answer! Keep up the good work!

@@jackalbanese3639 No problem. All the best

Thanks Billy. You make a good point about teams sitting deep to try and negate the counter attack from Liverpool. It requires even better movement and inter-change of positions from the Liverpool players to create space and scoring opportunities. Thanks again and please continue to provide your feedback. I hope to have another video ready soon.

Thank you
