    I was winger because i was fast, so i was trying to teach my son to be one (take ons, overlaps, underlaps, timing your run etc.) But he just naturally drifted to being a CDM, he has vision to control a game, able to spot a good pass and the accuracy to pull it off, good tackler and cut out danger before it happened, could also take on and beat players, he was so good in that position he'd regularly get called up to the year older teams.
    Then he got a new coach, who's son liked that position and wanted to play there, so he talked my son into being a Centre Back. it was a struggle for him at 1st to learn a new position but he's a good CB now, and still gets a good few assists, he doesn't hoof the ball up field, he has a cool head, looks for the foward pass, if its not on, he makes a simple pass.
    He seems happy as a CB now so its not too bad, but when they are winning games and the manager brings on another CB and pushes him up into Midfield again, he excels. He's a good CB but a natural CDM. i've never said anything to anyone (probably why im venting here), as i'm happy he is happy, but i hope to myself in the future he returns to midfield

    Began as a rightback in a 433, but was mainly moving up and down the pitch so next year I was a right midfielder. Always trained hard and worked on both legs. Even during goal scoring exercises I did good so one day I curled a ball over the keeper in a training and suddenly people wanted me as a striker. Did my best but didn't like the waiting, so I dropped into midfield often. Then one day I became a box to box player and loved that! Defend when I can, attack when I can, sometimes shoot from distance and pass the ball to better teammates who can do better things with it. I just enjoyed it. Moments like getting the ball from my opponent, passing it to the striker who scored a goal will always be great memories. .

Then moments later, we were attacking and I would be standing on the other side helping the attackers. Sometimes I had assists, sometimes some goals.

      I always played as a striker and was the captain of my team, I was very good at dribbling, taking on 2-3 defenders at a time and always being the person who scored the most goals. But my coach put my as a attacking mid fielder and I was clueless about what to do. One time I got so furious that when the ball came to me, I took on 4 players and took a shot from outside the box, wasn’t a goal, the keeper saved the goal. That was the only attempt of goal my team had in the entire match and we lost 4-0. Now imagine if I was a striker or even a winger, I could have scored at least 2 goals. Now my coach always puts me as a winger in friendly matches but, he didn’t when it was actually needed.

    In my 2nd year I was the top scorer as a winger for the 'C team' using my pace and energy with reckless flair and desire to score. The next year I made the A team and was very excited to play. But I felt the world spun against me when I played CB and would do this for 5 to 6 seasons every year. However with this I developed understanding on attacking behaviours and skills while improving my physical workrate and defensive understanding. I have been placed now as second striker now and occasionally winger for the past 3 seasons now and although my before crazy pace has dropped every other attributes like dribbling, defending, passing you name it has created a more balance mature game for me which allows me to willingly play attack or defence of the same attitudes and a range of qualities thanks to coach's beliefs.

    It comes down to many factors too :
    - How good you are at adapting? Some
    players like in many positions or change them thru time like CR7 from Winger to Striker or Bale from left back to winger. Another big examples are like Messi from Right winger and “False 9” to Center Forward or CAM
    - Some players can play at multiple positions such as Mbappe on all fronts , Sergi Roberto back in 2016 played in 7 different positions (CM , RW , RB , CDM , LB , RM , LM) , Kimmich as RB or CM , and I could go on
    - Currently is all about how can you contribute for the team , examples of this is like Pep Guardiola having KDB , Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden playing CM , RW , LW , ST , CAM while doing defensive duties

      I would suggest you to play as a CDM . Being a winger / striker myself ; it was pretty hard to play as an CM but recently I have enjoyed playing as a CDM . This positions allows you to get the ball more from the back & if you have good range of passing ; this position would be well suited for you because you would be able to pick out passes from deep and occasionly join the attack because playing from deep allows you to have full view of the pitch and you can easily pick out spots to get into & maybe pop some bangers in from long range . Hope this helps ; STAY SAFE & ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL GAME ❤️

    I first started as a defender(RB) which went really bad and then I stopped playing football…
    Then the next year I tried being goalie which went very good and got the award of best goalkeeper in the school, in-fact I played it for three years…
    So then I decided to be CF for the first time, but didn’t go as expected so I went back and became a CB which really helped because I developed very good defending skills,but my coach saw that I was a long-passer so he mad me CAM and I became very good at dribbling.then after a few years I became captain, and then I decided to become ST which made me very good but because my right
    leg was very good I became an RW then it went so good and I had very good defending skills which made me do so good EX: taking the ball of the defender and just going for a shot…
    Traits:
    Dribbling
    Pace
    Long shooter
    Good at free kicks
    Good at corner kicks
    Good at penaltys
    Good defending
    And that’s it, I really liked my football journey.

    This video helped me tons. Last year I played striker and my team scored over 100 goals (we probably should've been in the division higher but can't have two from the same club in division 1). I scored 7 goals in the season and got over 40 assists. My results and this video made me realise I was better at cam or cm. I've played 3 games this season and scored 6 goals, 2 assists, stopped 3 chances as last man when I drop to defend and have played lots of through balls that my teammates couldn't quite stick in the back of the net. My coach is now extremely reluctant to playing me anywhere else, since I make such a big impact to the game now. Thanks.

    I started out as an out and out striker when i was young, then i went into the academy system where i was put onto the right wing to simply fit me into the team rather than leave me out.
    I played my last game for them yesterday and in my time i have played across the entire attacking line (RW, LW, ST, CAM, F9 etc.)

    I moved to a different part of the country at around 13 so I joined a new team and was played as a RM for a few weeks, then my new coach moved me to a winger, saying that my dribbling and passing abilities would be much more useful in that position, and he was right, and I've been playing as a RW/LW ever since.

I also had great speed so I tried being fullback, but I didn't have the stamina to go up and down the pitch continuosly. I had good passing and defending so naturally I've become a CDM, and I'd like to say I'm loving it.

    For me I learned just by playing. I trained to be a forward at first because they get all the headlines, but I could never quite master the position at the higher levels, especially on the ball. But I’ve learned I’m much more valuable as a defender because I have good instincts, anticipation, range and toughness from playing American football. And while ball skills are still important, they’re not as critical as a defender or even a CDM, where it’s more about making good decisions than taking on defenders with a bunch of skill moves. So I play more center back and defensive mid. Kante and Makélélé are who I try to emulate, and some of Van Dijk as well.

    Because of my speed, stamina, pressing, tackling and ball interception, I get to play in multiple positions. I used to play as a forward, then a winger, then a center-back, then a full-back, then a defensive midfielder. I agree that it depends on the team, the formation, the system, and the style of the team. If where I play helps the team and gets me minutes on the pitch, it is way better than being on the bench. At least I know my name is always gonna be on the team sheet.

    For the longest time I was a winger (on the A-team). I also guested for the B-team, which the coach put me as CDM since I could calmly control the ball and find good passes around the pitch. But recently my newest coach put me at right back (we play a 4-1-2-3) and I am kind of good at it even if I may not enjoy it as much. He has also been playing me at winger and striker sometimes. So thanks to those three I have played every position besides center/full back in the span of a year. To sum this up for players trying to find their spot on the pitch- try *everything* out- you may surprise yourself. And also very importantly: *coaches. like. versatile. players.* hope this helped ;)
