Zezo A u can train your mentality believe in yourself tell yourself you are the best. That's what I do i usually tell myself I am xavi or figo zidane bergkamp beckham iniesta etc all combined in one.
Cebo Mswane at the highest level talent is a must. Hard work isn’t everything, same thing for talent. But you need a combination of talent and hard work ethic to make it to the top
My summer schedule is probably gonna be wake up at 10 Go to the gym at 10:30 Go back home at 11:30 and rest Practice my 1st touches and passing from 12:10 to 1:20 Rest Goalkeeper Training from 2:00 to 3:30 Done practicing individually now I rest until practice with my club and the rest of the day is mine
I would like to add something... your video is amazing btw. Confidence is key. I believe that most players ( aspiring players ) who want to be a pro are also scared when gameday comes... until you are not excited about the day and the game that is about to happen and you just cannot wait to play it and kill it ( even when you are not so good ) it is a sign of a weak mental attribute. when you work on your confidence, you will want to go out and practice because you want to play better, you cannot wait to play the game, you cannot wait to be noticed even when your team is not that good you stil believe you wil stand out. but it is completely normal to be scared. to help that you can do the following things: make your dream more real! go watch a game live from the stands, look at the player in your position look how he plays what he does off and on the ball, and you will notice " hey? I can to that too " and you wil feel the emotions and you wil overcome the fear of the unknown.. you know how it is you know what to do how to play, and you just cannot wait to play. but if you dont know what to do with the ball and without the ball it is completely normal to be scared because you dont know what to do :), but when you know what to do it is like you want the ball and you scream and you move and you push it is because you know what to do and you just want to do it. and then when you want to be able to perform better that is where the training starts for you... you train in a way that you know it is going to benefit you because you know what you want to do but you need that extra thing that wil help you, etc a skill move or a better cross,... I say this because I play 3th division in belgium and I know that was my biggest challenge and after years, I have overcome it... now I cannot wait to play, and I see improvements every game... the trainings are not efficient if you dont know what you are doing. I know a lot of people want to be a pro but when gameday comes its like you dont want to play, you get cold feet, I know it because I have had it so many times... but when you just study your position and your objectives ( you can do it online ) you wil be amazed and your playstyle is going to change and you are going to be amazed by yourself, and suddenly you are going to be the one who is demanding the ball who is leading who is yelling and screaming and killing it. that is the most most most important key. we are afraid of the unknown. know it and you are free. ( btw I have futsal individual highlights on my channel, I play field but dont have video's yet going to start making it this season ) Thank you x
1-Making sacrifices- check Never was a partygoer and i quit martial arts which ate up most of my time. And i consume healthy food 98% of the time anyways. 2-Be the best at something: check i guess My positioning and vision is really good. I also can do well defensively 3-Proactivity: check I know some players, executive directors for combines, and an agent. 4- mental strength: check I played college soccer in 2011/2012. But I have been training on my own more often lately. But i have confidence i will pay off 5- game changer: check sorta I gotta stand out more on this. And with combines coming up in 2 weeks down in Los Angeles, i need to step it up big time
Anthony Long If you are (or if you can become in the future) tall (183+cm) with good aerial ability and speed, then you should consider becoming a ball-playing centerback. Check out Mats Hummels and Leonardo Bonucci and try to copy some of their play. If you possess technique and some stamina, then you are midfielder (either a central midfielder or an attacking midfielder). These vary in types (players who can pull the strings, a deep-lying playmaker, an engine, etc) so just go look up some midfielders and try to find a connection. Start with Pirlo, Scholes, Gerrard, Kroos, De Bruyne, Milner, Thiago. Of course, you don't need to replicate their plays; take them as suggestions or hints. Every player is different, just like every person.
Anthony Long A central midfielder then. Some aerial ability, some stamina, and some passing ability would be great. Intercepting passes and cutting down passing lanes, then starting a counterattack either via longballs or driving up the pitch like a box-to-box midfielder are qualities that a larger number of people might want to see in a player of your category. Look up Pirlo, Scholes, Gerrard, Xabi Alonso, Kroos for longpasses, Bakayoko, Kovacic, Rakitic, Gundogan for driving up the pitch, Asensio, Kroos, Paulinho, Busquets for interceptions, Casemiro, Kante, Javi Martinez, Herrera, Matic, Lars Bender for tackling.
Rollerbear712 bro what position should I pay (Right Wing-False 9-Striker) My best stat is dribbling like agility,Ball control,Balance,and I’m Really fast cuz of my long legs.Im 12 years old i look like a twig but way156 lbs I’m 5ft 10in(177cm) and I have horrible Stamina I have a lot of shot power my passing is eh crosses r ok but it’s way to high cuz I kick to hard.My best stat is Agility I don’t like doing fancy tricks I’m strong too I kinda like coming deep if I’m striker to get the ball and dribble and score a goal but no team has a False 9 So what position should I play
Probenic OP Agility, ball control without tricks, balance, powerful shooting, and incredible height for your age. A false 9 is someone who is a playmaker positioned as a 9 but drops deep in order to help his team in the build up play. Is your passing good to the point where you can do through passes? I see you as the type of player who I like to call a driving midfielder. Khedira, Gundogan, Kovacic are these type of players. You need to be somewhat defensively good, but you will play next to a defensive midfielder, so some positional sense is ok. Once that defensive midfielder gets the ball, you will get the ball from him and run up the pitch to distribute it to your forwards or try a long distance shot. You will need some speed. If you hate defending whatsoever, I recommend you play as a second striker. This is the type of striker who is right next to an out-an-out striker (like Lewandowski, Ibrahimovic) and drops deep to pick up the ball and dribble through the center. Luis Suarez, Sergio Aguero are great second strikers. These two are so good they just play as the lone striker for the team (but not as a target man). Right now, you don't need to work-out as you are still growing (too many muscles will stop you from growing tall) but then again, you are 12 and you are already tall as Suarez and taller than Aguero so you should decide whether to start building your physique from now. Of couse, discuss this with your coach or someone who knows this stuff. The point is to not make an entirely different body. You want more stamina and strength or speed but you don't want to lose your balance and agility. Good luck my friend.
Welcome to the video! We are going over 5 signs you Will become a Pro Footballer in this video! I want to mention something very important about this video and the other video I made similar to this one which you can find here: ruclips.net/video/Gl4dgT0bh_Y/видео.html Get my FREE ebook "Game Changer" right here: bit.ly/GameChangerFREE If you're really looking to take your game to the next level with exclusive content, training programs, and personal feedback on your game, then check out the Simply Soccer Academy. More info here: bit.ly/ssmmnextlevel
Check out my other pages: instagram: instagram.com/simplysoccerpro/ Facebook: facebook.com/SimplySoccerPro/ These 5 things are not something that will guarantee anything. They are just things that are good to develop and will most likely support your pursuit of professional football. So, if you are doing all of these 5 things, you still need to keep going and if you don't do these 5 things currently, you CAN still develop them. I meant the same thing in my previous video which was titled 5 Signs You Will Never Be A Pro Footballer. It wasn't meant to discourage anyone or try and claim that displaying one of the signs sealed your fate, it was all about awareness. It was about being aware of those things that could potentially trip you up if you don't get a grip on them. In this video, I am trying to make you aware of some of the things you can do in order to make it more likely that you will reach a high level. Anything I create is never intended to bring someone down, discourage someone, or tell them they are not good enough. Quite the contrary. I want all of you to get better and succeed.
SimplySoccer Sacrifices:nope Be the best at something:check,I am prolific at passing vision and dribbling Proactive:nope Game changer:he'll yea,I can win a game on my own and turn the tie completely Mental ability:yes I never buckle under pressure and I have what it takes to have good mental ability Overall:3/5 I think I can become a good footballer but i need to be more proactive P.S plz don't judge by profile pic this is my bro s pic not mine I'm actually 13
Hello there, thank you for your video very helpful My son just turned 12 years old He plays for a elite academy in Southern California But he seems like only wants to do the basics and does not want to do more And he loves soccer Any suggestions will be appreciated thank you.
I’m going to the gym 2-3 times a week now, running 3 miles so I can get stamina, lifting weights so I get stronger and trying to get faster so I’m getting that physical attribute up With that I’m going play the whole game and no one can push me off the ball easily I’m a right back btw :) : edit
TripZ Clan k I thought you were 21 or some shit I’m 12 and 5ft 10in you’re lucky that you get to go to the gym cuz when I’m gonna be you’re age I’m gonna Whey to much even tho I be looking like a twig bra
To be proactive. This is very important thing that i believe, from my expirience , it will be the big step to be professional. Many kids they were very good ( also me) but they didnt have many connections with managers, teams etc. and they stay in low level.
Me too!!! I believe I will become a pro, since I'm so good right now!!! And I'm from argentina, I speak English and spanish, I believe I will play for FC barcelona or arsenal, and play for argentina in the world cup, and make my dad's wish come true, by winning argentina our 3rd world cup, my name is Alan Rodriguez, hopefully I make it!!!!
TEKMO GAMING bro you don’t have to ruin people’s dreams like that if you don’t think they won’t make it then keep that to yourself you don’t have to be such a dick
Making sacrifices-✅ I never get invited to parties or anything Being the best at something-✅ I’m a left winger and I have good vision and my shooting is pretty good. Being Proactive-❌ I’m just 16 rn and I don’t know if I should wait till I’m older or look for academies and teams Mentality-✅ I never doubt myself. I’m actually always hyping myself up Being a game changer-✅ Definitely.
Just like the Longstaff brothers! You can and will make it, I have a 3 month camp at Fleetwood Town FC (3rd division of English Football at the time of writing) coming up next January and I know I need to practice as much as possible due to being out of the game for sometime. Anyway enough about me, I wish you both the best of luck!!!
2:31 Make sacrifices 4:16 Being the best at something 6:40 Be proactive 9:57 You need to be mentally strong 11:15 You have to be a game changer Edit:Thank me later
I WILL MAKE SACRAFICES I NEED TO LOSE A BIT OF WEIGHT AND EAT MORE HEALTHY AND LESS BECAUSE I AM VERY CREATIVE AND IF I WAS FIT AND VERY FAST I WOULD BE A BIG THREAT IN THE GAME Also my dads friends wife is an assistant coach for the Irish international team which is my country but I can go through her to get picked up by a coach
In my opinion now that we aspiring athletes have access to social media and RUclips I feel like the percentage of becoming a pro athlete will rise year by year because the amount of advice and drills and stuff we have now that people didn’t have back then idk it’s my opinion
Am always putting the hard work both in and off the pitch to get ready for football. If you wanna go far in life you gotta make sacrifice and be courageous. In hard work I trust.
I don't really know if this is position specific but when I was younger I was always the small kid with quick feet, I played winger. You know the typical kiddo who was very talented but would probably not even be that good at 14/15 years old. I realised when I was 10-11 that I wasn't the best player in the world and that players became better than me, stronger than me, and even faster than me, after that I took this challenge upon myself, I wanted to be a complete player, and the first thing I wanted to improve was my vision, play recognition, and off the ball movement, when I wast all that fast anymore compared to these kids who seemed to have bodies like adults I started playing cm and to me that was a game changer, I studied players like Xavi, Davis silva and inesta to see how they moved off the ball and what they were looking for with the ball at thier feet, I quickly became better, I improved my passing range and vision, I grew taller and became stronger faster and more explosive, I still have the sense to know where the goal is at and became good in front of goal but the more important thing was how I got to these chances to score goals, I had a much better footballing iq than most of my competitors. I feel like I have outgrown my boyhood team, I'm currently 15, and playing in the highest tier football aginst all academy teams in our area. I'm going to the most sought after collage/high school (being in Sweden idk know what the term should be) in our area. I've recently played a lot of wingback, because of my right foot, vision and physical qualities. But to comeback to what I was wondering, in recent time I've became very good at spot kicks, free kicks corners and penalties. And my crossing and passing abilities are probably my strongest qualities. Just this season, (starting in March) I've played around 15 games, scored 5 goals and assisted 12 times, most of these contributions have come from dead balls and I feel like i have this game changer abilities in me because of that. I just want to know if you think those qualities could take me to the next level. Please note, I'm not trying to brag in any way shape or form, and sorry that I made you read this long ass text lol
Filip Sandebert good luck in your career! You look very promising, I suggest watching Midfielders like Arturo Vidal, Pirlo and those creative midfielders Also try and watch Promising players like Riqui Puig, it will help a lot
Sacrifices :check gave up karate and my main drink is water now and eat healthy. Being the best at something :I'm the best in my team at dribbling and not losing the ball and passing and vision (my positions are :wing , cm , cam and sometimes striker ) proactive :my coach is a scout for my local football club (reading fc a team in the English 2nd division ) which I got through a trial and I play for now . my uncle is like my agent . Mental strength :This one of my greatest strengths as when I get knocked once I come back 1000 times again . game changer : I proved this in a tournament and many games but the most significant moment was when my team was losing 5 nil in the final of a tournament I came on in the second half ,scored a Hart rick and assisted 3 goals making us win 6 -5 winning us the tournament and I getting man of the match and getting the golden boy award (best player in the tournament ) . This doesn't guarantee I'll make it so I'll just keep my head down and work hard and keep my pma (positive mental attitude ).
1.) make sacrifices -Check i gave up lots of time with my friends to practice football and after practice I will stay longer to practice shooting and dribbling instead of going home to rest 2.) be the best of something-check I guest you tell me I am consider my many on my time to be the best striker on the team and I am the only one that scored this season so far(we only had 3 games are season just started) but I don’t know if that consider being the best of something 3.) be proactive yes I uploaded some stuff on Instagram and snap of goals I make and something look at clubs to see when tryouts are 4.) strong mentality-yes once in a while I get sad when we loses but I don’t let me self get to sad instead idk if this is weird but I work on what I can do to get better 5.)game changer - you guys tell me yes or no but in our 2 game this season we where loseing 1-0 and then I made 2 goals and I make some assets (Sorry for bad English
I'm best at doing anything with both feet on the ball, makes my game excellent. I stay consistent in and outside of training, basically I work on everything areas which is going to have an impact on my football life.
Over my summer off i got so much better in the space of 3 week's and over my christmas holiday off school i got better again its not even intense training just kicking a ball about the house and doing basics helps so much
I am the best in defending and running. I practice everything EVERY day. I trully believe in myself. My 5 BEST games are all finals or semi-finals. Now everythin i need is proactivity. Thans for the advice👍
I got into a pro football team's youth system (Anderlecht) and I'm not a game changer, i play in a 3-5-2 and I'm the right winger, which is defensive work and attacking work, my Idol is Thomas Meunier.
I did so well in my first Sunday team I just came back from a fracture left ankle I'm waiting for LAFC to make a u17-u18 I feel confident that Sunday I had many teams ask me to play for them
i just need to be proactive and be the best at one specific thing.... so I can play LB/RB, LWB/RWB, CB and CDM what should i improve on in your opinion because i dont even know which position im gonna be playing the coach tells me just before the match😂
im 17 and im soon to tryout for an academy and i have been playing soccer since i was 5 but took it more seriously around the age of 9. right now i play at the park just for fun twice a week and the people who play are a bit older at around 20-40 years and i’m really good and maybe even better than the 20 year olds. i feel like i have raw talent but im not really good at coordination, training drills, and doing skill moves, but i do have great dribbling and passing. do i really have an opportunity to become a pro? edit: thanks for da motivation and advice. those who saying im cocky or im not good enough, keep dat energy, yall just making me want to work harder and prove yall wrong
ale da fool You have to make those weaknesses your strengths. You have to be dedicated and you must do sacrifices and stay healthy. It’s hard to be a pro but If you really want to be then you’ll be a professional soccer player.
Yesyes. By awarness i mean when you dont have the ball you know where everyone on the pitch is. Knowing where you direct your first touch and pass the ball before even receiving the ball. Knowing if you should pass first time or wait for someone to get to a better position
You also have to be willing to play soccer not for the money but for the thrill of it you need to want to have a feel and passion for your dream of soccer and work on making that a reality when I was 11 I wanted to go pro always but the thing I never had was a club or training never had it I practiced and practiced in my backyard for 6 years and I'm now a pro just goes to show never ever give up on ur dreams keep playing no matter what anyone tells you
Simplysoccer I have a great speed , I can dribble pretty well and work hard to be as good as I can but really confused regarding my position. What position suits me with all these attributes please help me 🙏🙏
Thank u soo much dave! I can't thank u enough, u teach me very important things, i still don't have a coach, a team.. But still i believe i m gonna make it.. And it's u whose helping me❤In sha Allah i will give everything to become a PRO! InshaAllah,... And thanks once again❤keep up the Great work!❤
Ardern Anthony Not really some famous footballers play football and some don't even know how to juggle, but it's up to you, in my opinion though, you don't really have to.
i train every day for two hours by my self. do 6 km of biking every day by my slef and train 3 times a week with my team for 2 hours per training and 1 time a week for 1 hour and a half with my school team . i also stimulate my self to go to the gym and also eat healthy. this year i won athlete of the year at my school because i was in most teams like football,tennis,basketball,athletics,swimming and cross country.
I don't think I said football isn't fun? But if you want to become a high level player, you have to sacrifice doing other things that you consider fun and you also will have to do some forms of training that won't be that fun.
SimplySoccer yeah i know what you mean by that ... i kinda wrote the comment the moment you said it and didnt wait to hear the restt ... Great vid anw ... as usual
Lol football is actually good but in my school it's too boring cuz no one passes literally no one everyone tries to dribble and just fail if I dribble and know I'm close to defenders I pass my teammates well they seem garbage then I quit football in my school cuz there was only 1 other guy except me who played correct and was awesome
The moment you step on the pitch and the ball is at your feet and it's just you and the ball and the whole world just disappears. That's were the real game begins
I had the best overview for roams to pass into and played the best passes into the run at my club! I left football and now I want to start as a goalkeeper... I think the overview could help xD
Age don't matter every one is a pro at something don't let it bother you I'm really young I'm 9 I love soccer and GAA football I'm from Kerry I know every thing just do it you're going to make it
Never give up, that’s whos a pro footballer. When i started playing football, i was 9 i could not even control the ball, but now......... U can guess what.
I am 16 year old, and I'll be moving to London next month from Mumbai. I did what u said. I contacted a few clubs and now 3 different clubs have called me to attend their practice sessions as soon as I arrive in the UK. In fact, one of the coaches said that he'll be waiting personally for me on the given day and time. Thank you so much for ur advices. Wish me luck. Hope I'll make it at least as a semi pro out there. Thank you so much
1) will to make sacrifices to pursue your dreams 2) being the 👍💯 best at something 3) be proactive with your improvement 4) you need to be strong mentality 5) are you be a game changer
I have a question though, or more of a dilemma. See, one of the things you would agree with is that to have a high chance to successfully play pro, a player would need to sacrifice some distractions or hobbies they have. The thing is that, I’m still 14, and I want to play professionally. My end goal is Europe in a top club, not just semi-pro or lower end. The reason being, and part of the dilemma, is that even though I am very confident in my abilities and ability to progress, I’ve always been more of a slow at life thinker. I’m somewhat more equipped at not an academic, but a life where I would more heavily find a profession later on in life that would require a higher intelligence to settle in. For example, a physicist, or writer. The school I’m also in is a STEM school and doesn’t have any sport teams and focuses rigorously on academics. That’s not the issue, I could find a team to play with, but I would be so busy with other things and passions, that I would end up only being able to devote at most an hour a day, none some days, and maybe a couple hours on free days. I really want to play professionally passionately, and I realize being 14 my window of opportunity for higher-level play is getting slimmer by the day. What would you recommend? I simply have other passions that I’m not willing and don’t believe I should sacrifice, even for something I love as much as football. I’m curious on your take on this, and I would appreciate a response.
1. Sacrifices
2. Being the best at something
3. Being proactive
4. Having strong mental attributes
5. Be a game changer
Joel Villanueva I am mentally weak can i train my mentality or will i stay like this forever?
Zezo A u can train your mentality believe in yourself tell yourself you are the best. That's what I do i usually tell myself I am xavi or figo zidane bergkamp beckham iniesta etc all combined in one.
Zezo A I'm the same. You have to find your weakness and work on it
Thanks man
I’m all of those 😀
Train -Hard.
Train-Smart.
Have a winner mentality. That's how u make it pro.
Solomon Fifa have talent
Rick. No talent needed just hard work
Cebo Mswane Depends on the level, if you really want to be on the top, you do need talent, there are some things that just can't be taught or learned.
M. A. True
Cebo Mswane at the highest level talent is a must. Hard work isn’t everything, same thing for talent. But you need a combination of talent and hard work ethic to make it to the top
Many people see this summer as a chance to be lazy and sleep in
Me? I see it as a chance to improve and get better at football!
Keep up the great work
Nice. That's the right attitude to have!
Same for me my summer is to practice in soccer work on the things I need to improve in
My summer schedule is probably gonna be
wake up at 10
Go to the gym at 10:30
Go back home at 11:30 and rest

Rest
Goalkeeper Training from 2:00 to 3:30
Done practicing individually now I rest until practice with my club and the rest of the day is mine
Robert Albarda same, I just finished got back from a Barcelona soccer/ football camp
True same make fun of me that am not good
I would like to add something... your video is amazing btw.
Confidence is key. I believe that most players ( aspiring players ) who want to be a pro are also scared when gameday comes... until you are not excited about the day and the game that is about to happen and you just cannot wait to play it and kill it ( even when you are not so good ) it is a sign of a weak mental attribute. when you work on your confidence, you will want to go out and practice because you want to play better, you cannot wait to play the game, you cannot wait to be noticed even when your team is not that good you stil believe you wil stand out. but it is completely normal to be scared. to help that you can do the following things: make your dream more real! go watch a game live from the stands, look at the player in your position look how he plays what he does off and on the ball, and you will notice " hey? I can to that too " and you wil feel the emotions and you wil overcome the fear of the unknown.. you know how it is you know what to do how to play, and you just cannot wait to play. but if you dont know what to do with the ball and without the ball it is completely normal to be scared because you dont know what to do :), but when you know what to do it is like you want the ball and you scream and you move and you push it is because you know what to do and you just want to do it. and then when you want to be able to perform better that is where the training starts for you... you train in a way that you know it is going to benefit you because you know what you want to do but you need that extra thing that wil help you, etc a skill move or a better cross,... I say this because I play 3th division in belgium and I know that was my biggest challenge and after years, I have overcome it... now I cannot wait to play, and I see improvements every game... the trainings are not efficient if you dont know what you are doing. I know a lot of people want to be a pro but when gameday comes its like you dont want to play, you get cold feet, I know it because I have had it so many times... but when you just study your position and your objectives ( you can do it online ) you wil be amazed and your playstyle is going to change and you are going to be amazed by yourself, and suddenly you are going to be the one who is demanding the ball who is leading who is yelling and screaming and killing it. that is the most most most important key. we are afraid of the unknown. know it and you are free. ( btw I have futsal individual highlights on my channel, I play field but dont have video's yet going to start making it this season )
Thank you x
Thanks 🙏
God will bless me one day I know i can do it I will make it one day
Yes you will same as me believe in your dream and focus and you will make it
Me too
Yes everyone can
Me to
Amen
1-Making sacrifices- check
Never was a partygoer and i quit
martial arts which ate up most of my time. And i consume healthy food 98% of the time anyways.
2-Be the best at something: check i guess
My positioning and vision is really good. I also can do well defensively
3-Proactivity: check
I know some players, executive directors for combines, and an agent.
4- mental strength: check
I played college soccer in 2011/2012. But I have been training on my own more often lately. But i have confidence i will pay off
5- game changer: check sorta
I gotta stand out more on this. And with combines coming up in 2 weeks down in Los Angeles, i need to step it up big time

Bakayoko, Kovacic, Rakitic, Gundogan for driving up the pitch,
Asensio, Kroos, Paulinho, Busquets for interceptions,
Casemiro, Kante, Javi Martinez, Herrera, Matic, Lars Bender for tackling.
Rollerbear712 bro what position should I pay (Right Wing-False 9-Striker)
My best stat is dribbling like agility,Ball control,Balance,and I’m Really fast cuz of my long legs.Im 12 years old i look like a twig but way156 lbs I’m 5ft 10in(177cm)
and I have horrible Stamina I have a lot of shot power my passing is eh crosses r ok but it’s way to high cuz I kick to hard.My best stat is Agility I don’t like doing fancy tricks I’m strong too I kinda like coming deep if I’m striker to get the ball and dribble and score a goal but no team has a False 9 So what position should I play

If you hate defending whatsoever, I recommend you play as a second striker. This is the type of striker who is right next to an out-an-out striker (like Lewandowski, Ibrahimovic) and drops deep to pick up the ball and dribble through the center. Luis Suarez, Sergio Aguero are great second strikers. These two are so good they just play as the lone striker for the team (but not as a target man).
Right now, you don't need to work-out as you are still growing (too many muscles will stop you from growing tall) but then again, you are 12 and you are already tall as Suarez and taller than Aguero so you should decide whether to start building your physique from now. Of couse, discuss this with your coach or someone who knows this stuff. The point is to not make an entirely different body. You want more stamina and strength or speed but you don't want to lose your balance and agility. Good luck my friend.
You can't stop making outstanding videos! When I become a pro, I will always thank you mate!
Haha thanks mate!
King Of Football ‘IF’ You become pro

"I am gonna be pro" - every second child
How old are you
Welcome to the video! We are going over 5 signs you Will become a Pro Footballer in this video! I want to mention something very important about this video and the other video I made similar to this one which you can find here: ruclips.net/video/Gl4dgT0bh_Y/видео.html

These 5 things are not something that will guarantee anything. They are just things that are good to develop and will most likely support your pursuit of professional football. So, if you are doing all of these 5 things, you still need to keep going and if you don't do these 5 things currently, you CAN still develop them.
I meant the same thing in my previous video which was titled 5 Signs You Will Never Be A Pro Footballer. It wasn't meant to discourage anyone or try and claim that displaying one of the signs sealed your fate, it was all about awareness. It was about being aware of those things that could potentially trip you up if you don't get a grip on them. In this video, I am trying to make you aware of some of the things you can do in order to make it more likely that you will reach a high level.
Anything I create is never intended to bring someone down, discourage someone, or tell them they are not good enough. Quite the contrary. I want all of you to get better and succeed.
SimplySoccer can you give me some LinkedIn connections
SimplySoccer The only thong thats good about this channel is the thumbnail

Sacrifices:nope
Be the best at something:check,I am prolific at passing vision and dribbling
Proactive:nope
Game changer:he'll yea,I can win a game on my own and turn the tie completely
Mental ability:yes I never buckle under pressure and I have what it takes to have good mental ability

P.S plz don't judge by profile pic this is my bro s pic not mine I'm actually 13
SimplySoccer , hey man, which video are you talking about that shows how you got a trial at a professional club by being proactive?
Hello there, thank you for your video very helpful
My son just turned 12 years old
He plays for a elite academy in Southern California
But he seems like only wants to do the basics and does not want to do more
And he loves soccer
Any suggestions will be appreciated thank you.
Inshallah one day I will make it pro ⚽♥️
stfuwimpylyingshits shut up you racist
stfuwimpylyingshits you have your own belifes and I have mine and I don't feel like cussing bc it's Ramadan
stfuwimpylyingshits I am a Christian and i am disgusted by what you just said
Salam don’t let anyone bother you there’s only a few days left of Ramadan. I Need sha Allah you and I both go PRO. Ameen
Messi Pac ok
I’m going to the gym 2-3 times a week now, running 3 miles so I can get stamina, lifting weights so I get stronger and trying to get faster so I’m getting that physical attribute up
With that I’m going play the whole game and no one can push me off the ball easily
I’m a right back btw :) : edit
Keep it up!
TripZ Clan how old are u and what’s ur height
I’m 14 and 5’9
TripZ Clan k I thought you were 21 or some shit I’m 12 and 5ft 10in you’re lucky that you get to go to the gym cuz when I’m gonna be you’re age I’m gonna Whey to much even tho I be looking like a twig bra
Ima Right back too ((:
To be proactive. This is very important thing that i believe, from my expirience , it will be the big step to be professional. Many kids they were very good ( also me) but they didnt have many connections with managers, teams etc. and they stay in low level.
I have subscribed to you in 4 different phones
Haha that's me all the time and also subscribed in 3 other phones 😂😂😂
Thank you for the advice it really helped me out
Sacrifices? Soccer is my free time!
Thankss you so much , one day I’m gonna make it & your videos will be one of reasons
Me too!!! I believe I will become a pro, since I'm so good right now!!! And I'm from argentina, I speak English and spanish, I believe I will play for FC barcelona or arsenal, and play for argentina in the world cup, and make my dad's wish come true, by winning argentina our 3rd world cup, my name is Alan Rodriguez, hopefully I make it!!!!
TEKMO GAMING bro you don’t have to ruin people’s dreams like that if you don’t think they won’t make it then keep that to yourself you don’t have to be such a dick
Did your parents not love you?
XxSlumpGod 2 Iam from Mexico and I want to play for Barcelona and win a World Cup with México
@TEKMO GAMING Go do something with your life rather than put people with big dreams down

When I become a pro I will remember you
This motivates me ALOT!!!!!!!

I loved the amount of clips you put in the video, really makes the video that much more enjoyable.
I will be looking to do that more from now on
best RUclips trainer your videos are so classic & clear
it's caught my attention from
Cameroon
Thanks man!
Making sacrifices-✅
I never get invited to parties or anything
Being the best at something-✅
I’m a left winger and I have good vision and my shooting is pretty good.
Being Proactive-❌
I’m just 16 rn and I don’t know if I should wait till I’m older or look for academies and teams
Mentality-✅
I never doubt myself. I’m actually always hyping myself up
Being a game changer-✅
Definitely.
Dominion oladejo don't wait bro join a football academy brother as soon as possible !!
You should join a pro team because it will help u alot and your only 16
Dominion oladejo u better reply to my comment when u make a top team man👍🙌
Thank you so much im going to use this knowledge for me and my brother so we can both hold it down so our dreams come true...
Just like the Longstaff brothers! You can and will make it, I have a 3 month camp at Fleetwood Town FC (3rd division of English Football at the time of writing) coming up next January and I know I need to practice as much as possible due to being out of the game for sometime. Anyway enough about me, I wish you both the best of luck!!!
10:50 went from a 5 sign video to a motivational video
2:31 Make sacrifices
4:16 Being the best at something
6:40 Be proactive
9:57 You need to be mentally strong
11:15 You have to be a game changer
Edit:Thank me later
Thanks
And all my coaches say I am amazing at goalkeeper and next year I am going to white horse and I might get scouted
Brilliant man all the points are brilliantly explain hats off to you
Thanks mate!
I am a CAM and can play up front very well i am the best playmaker in the team but i have got motivation from this video!
A&I Syskonen same
But I play cam and left wing
I WILL MAKE SACRAFICES I NEED TO LOSE A BIT OF WEIGHT AND EAT MORE HEALTHY AND LESS BECAUSE I AM VERY CREATIVE AND IF I WAS FIT AND VERY FAST I WOULD BE A BIG THREAT IN THE GAME
Also my dads friends wife is an assistant coach for the Irish international team which is my country but I can go through her to get picked up by a coach
People who dislike your videos are basically haters
Keep doing this bro 🔥🔥
In my opinion now that we aspiring athletes have access to social media and RUclips I feel like the percentage of becoming a pro athlete will rise year by year because the amount of advice and drills and stuff we have now that people didn’t have back then idk it’s my opinion
You are defintely right my man.
After this I went to the Liverpool academy and thanks so much
Wow sick
Lucky
I got into as Monaco academy
@@tyeet7860 I got into Manchester city academy
Wow sick I hope I play for Liverpool when I grow up
3:37 "Less of doing the things that are fun" Me: isn't football fun
Am always putting the hard work both in and off the pitch to get ready for football. If you wanna go far in life you gotta make sacrifice and be courageous. In hard work I trust.
I don't really know if this is position specific but when I was younger I was always the small kid with quick feet, I played winger. You know the typical kiddo who was very talented but would probably not even be that good at 14/15 years old. I realised when I was 10-11 that I wasn't the best player in the world and that players became better than me, stronger than me, and even faster than me, after that I took this challenge upon myself, I wanted to be a complete player, and the first thing I wanted to improve was my vision, play recognition, and off the ball movement, when I wast all that fast anymore compared to these kids who seemed to have bodies like adults I started playing cm and to me that was a game changer, I studied players like Xavi, Davis silva and inesta to see how they moved off the ball and what they were looking for with the ball at thier feet, I quickly became better, I improved my passing range and vision, I grew taller and became stronger faster and more explosive, I still have the sense to know where the goal is at and became good in front of goal but the more important thing was how I got to these chances to score goals, I had a much better footballing iq than most of my competitors. I feel like I have outgrown my boyhood team, I'm currently 15, and playing in the highest tier football aginst all academy teams in our area. I'm going to the most sought after collage/high school (being in Sweden idk know what the term should be) in our area. I've recently played a lot of wingback, because of my right foot, vision and physical qualities. But to comeback to what I was wondering, in recent time I've became very good at spot kicks, free kicks corners and penalties. And my crossing and passing abilities are probably my strongest qualities. Just this season, (starting in March) I've played around 15 games, scored 5 goals and assisted 12 times, most of these contributions have come from dead balls and I feel like i have this game changer abilities in me because of that. I just want to know if you think those qualities could take me to the next level.
Please note, I'm not trying to brag in any way shape or form, and sorry that I made you read this long ass text lol
Filip Sandebert I hope you make it
Filip Sandebert, believe In your self man. I'm working on this too, always believe, train hard, and be the best!
Filip Sandebert good luck in your career!
You look very promising, I suggest watching Midfielders like Arturo Vidal, Pirlo and those creative midfielders
Also try and watch Promising players like Riqui Puig, it will help a lot
Your second point"be very good at something" is very very good and true well done.
My dream in life is to become a player for my club and country
Sacrifices :check gave up karate and my main drink is water now and eat healthy. Being the best at something :I'm the best in my team at dribbling and not losing the ball and passing and vision (my positions are :wing , cm , cam and sometimes striker ) proactive :my coach is a scout for my local football club (reading fc a team in the English 2nd division ) which I got through a trial and I play for now . my uncle is like my agent . Mental strength :This one of my greatest strengths as when I get knocked once I come back 1000 times again . game changer : I proved this in a tournament and many games but the most significant moment was when my team was losing 5 nil in the final of a tournament I came on in the second half ,scored a Hart rick and assisted 3 goals making us win 6 -5 winning us the tournament and I getting man of the match and getting the golden boy award (best player in the tournament ) . This doesn't guarantee I'll make it so I'll just keep my head down and work hard and keep my pma (positive mental attitude ).
insha'Allah I will be a pro football 🙏🙏🙏
1.) make sacrifices -Check i gave up lots of time with my friends to practice football and after practice I will stay longer to practice shooting and dribbling instead of going home to rest
2.) be the best of something-check I guest you tell me I am consider my many on my time to be the best striker on the team and I am the only one that scored this season so far(we only had 3 games are season just started) but I don’t know if that consider being the best of something
3.) be proactive yes I uploaded some stuff on Instagram and snap of goals I make and something look at clubs to see when tryouts are
4.) strong mentality-yes once in a while I get sad when we loses but I don’t let me self get to sad instead idk if this is weird but I work on what I can do to get better
5.)game changer - you guys tell me yes or no but in our 2 game this season we where loseing 1-0 and then I made 2 goals and I make some assets
(Sorry for bad English
Very knowledgeable at what he does, you explain it thoroughly, I enjoy your channel
Cheers!
Betterworld ok me too
Hey man thanks for the tips, as a younger person who aspires to be a pro someday I thank you for the tips and I’ll take these to heart. Thanks bro 👊🏻
No problem mate!
Legend.
I'm best at doing anything with both feet on the ball, makes my game excellent. I stay consistent in and outside of training, basically I work on everything areas which is going to have an impact on my football life.
Dude. YOU ARE A LEGEND
Thanks mate!
Over my summer off i got so much better in the space of 3 week's and over my christmas holiday off school i got better again its not even intense training just kicking a ball about the house and doing basics helps so much
I am the best in defending and running. I practice everything EVERY day. I trully believe in myself. My 5 BEST games are all finals or semi-finals. Now everythin i need is proactivity. Thans for the advice👍
No problem mate. Keep that up!
Ηλιας Σεφεριαδης you're not going to make it
You're gonna make it if you believe in yourself!
This is true. I want to be a pro soccer player but I have to quit dance to play on a good comp team. But idk what one😪
The only things I like is playing football or watch RUclips to learn more skills
im 12 Years old and i live in algeria and is it a sing when a coache looks at you a lot when you play a game
Can you make a video on how to have good movement for a striker
Dr Blick yes please
Train hard without questions.
I got into a pro football team's youth system (Anderlecht) and I'm not a game changer, i play in a 3-5-2 and I'm the right winger, which is defensive work and attacking work, my Idol is Thomas Meunier.
Also i have a question for the people in the comments... do you guys like practicing, just curious
JB Lamango i hate every second of training, but the results make worth it
i see, how long do you practice for a day?
JB Lamango till i can't do anything more, it depends, i'll say 3 hours
damn, you got social media?
JB Lamango o
Helps a ton, I am going to go pro and I will follow my dreams
Don't click read more
I told u not to😂😂😂
XD
😂😂
Hhhujhhh
Disappointed; not long enough
Idiot
I did so well in my first Sunday team I just came back from a fracture left ankle I'm waiting for LAFC to make a u17-u18 I feel confident that Sunday I had many teams ask me to play for them
i just need to be proactive and be the best at one specific thing.... so I can play LB/RB, LWB/RWB, CB and CDM what should i improve on in your opinion because i dont even know which position im gonna be playing the coach tells me just before the match😂
Hey! This is from the future, 1 year ago. I am watching this video in quarantine.
im 17 and im soon to tryout for an academy and i have been playing soccer since i was 5 but took it more seriously around the age of 9. right now i play at the park just for fun twice a week and the people who play are a bit older at around 20-40 years and i’m really good and maybe even better than the 20 year olds. i feel like i have raw talent but im not really good at coordination, training drills, and doing skill moves, but i do have great dribbling and passing. do i really have an opportunity to become a pro?
edit: thanks for da motivation and advice. those who saying im cocky or im not good enough, keep dat energy, yall just making me want to work harder and prove yall wrong
ale da fool
You have to make those weaknesses your strengths. You have to be dedicated and you must do sacrifices and stay healthy. It’s hard to be a pro but If you really want to be then you’ll be a professional soccer player.
ale da fool someone's cocky 😂
ale da fool you always have an opportunity to become pro
ale da fool
Talent doesn’t exist it’s all about Hard Work
Sacrifices
Andrew Salibi why do you have to hate
Thank you bro for your inspiration ,,, God bless you .........
Do you agree that the most important atribute to a soccer player is awarness?
It's definitely up there. I think it is definitely an underrated area that not enough players value.
The most important attribute to a soccer player is *first touch* awareness is also important tho.
Yesyes. By awarness i mean when you dont have the ball you know where everyone on the pitch is. Knowing where you direct your first touch and pass the ball before even receiving the ball. Knowing if you should pass first time or wait for someone to get to a better position
You also have to be willing to play soccer not for the money but for the thrill of it you need to want to have a feel and passion for your dream of soccer and work on making that a reality when I was 11 I wanted to go pro always but the thing I never had was a club or training never had it I practiced and practiced in my backyard for 6 years and I'm now a pro just goes to show never ever give up on ur dreams keep playing no matter what anyone tells you
Jaidan Ball wow, thanks for inspiring me 👍👏
I am always told that i could go pro as a keeper
Good luck!
Simplysoccer I have a great speed , I can dribble pretty well and work hard to be as good as I can but really confused regarding my position. What position suits me with all these attributes please help me 🙏🙏
Am i the only one who can do all those things?
Obviously your messi

Must you know how to juggle a ball to become pro
Ardern Anthony Not really some famous footballers play football and some don't even know how to juggle, but it's up to you, in my opinion though, you don't really have to.
GD Silvertoy thank you
Ardern Anthony no problem
Juggling do help in your ball control
My friend is now pro and he doesn't know how to juggle
i train every day for two hours by my self. do 6 km of biking every day by my slef and train 3 times a week with my team for 2 hours per training and 1 time a week for 1 hour and a half with my school team . i also stimulate my self to go to the gym and also eat healthy. this year i won athlete of the year at my school because i was in most teams like football,tennis,basketball,athletics,swimming and cross country.
Things that are fun ? Why do you even play football if u think it aint funn... ?? For me the moment i have a ball between my feet im happy
I don't think I said football isn't fun? But if you want to become a high level player, you have to sacrifice doing other things that you consider fun and you also will have to do some forms of training that won't be that fun.
SimplySoccer yeah i know what you mean by that ... i kinda wrote the comment the moment you said it and didnt wait to hear the restt ... Great vid anw ... as usual
Lol football is actually good but in my school it's too boring cuz no one passes literally no one everyone tries to dribble and just fail if I dribble and know I'm close to defenders I pass my teammates well they seem garbage then I quit football in my school cuz there was only 1 other guy except me who played correct and was awesome
The moment you step on the pitch and the ball is at your feet and it's just you and the ball and the whole world just disappears. That's were the real game begins
All these points are all very true. Great video
it looks like you are a floating head 😂😂
Haha so many people have said this. My own fault wearing a black shirt with a black background 😂
I got scouted by a premier league club
Do you play travel?
Nice
Everyone does if they’re half decent
It all depends on what level of a travel club you pmay
Emmanuel Eze are you Nigerian
I had the best overview for roams to pass into and played the best passes into the run at my club! I left football and now I want to start as a goalkeeper... I think the overview could help xD
5 signs you will become a pro. What if your 40 years old
Age don't matter every one is a pro at something don't let it bother you I'm really young I'm 9 I love soccer and GAA football I'm from Kerry I know every thing just do it you're going to make it
This helps me alot man..Thank you
Mate the chance to be a pro footballer in the uk is 0.0012%
AshGB why?
At least there’s a chance
Look at cops 90 scouting video
Ok let’s say some guy looks More privelaged and profitable than you ?
AshGB its easy bro
One of the best, if not the best video of yours! Great tips man, Thanks hahah.
⚽🗝💪🔥💯
Never give up, that’s whos a pro footballer.
When i started playing football, i was 9 i could not even control the ball, but now.........
U can guess what.
Typical PS4 Gamer Z u sit on ps4 all day
Have 5 star skills on FIFA xD
Now i am a good footballer!
So simple......
Typical PS4 Gamer Z what plz respond
Typical PS4 Gamer Z wow I have the same story lel
I am 16 year old, and I'll be moving to London next month from Mumbai. I did what u said. I contacted a few clubs and now 3 different clubs have called me to attend their practice sessions as soon as I arrive in the UK. In fact, one of the coaches said that he'll be waiting personally for me on the given day and time. Thank you so much for ur advices. Wish me luck. Hope I'll make it at least as a semi pro out there. Thank you so much
how did it go?
First
I need better dribbling even though when I run as well as dribbling and I was good and I’m ten and it’s nearly glued to me so I’m a winger and a CAM
Thanks for the advice!
No problem!
5:53 like Joshua Osude from Hashtag he is good at everything else but has outstanding Pace
I agree mental is more important than physical
1) will to make sacrifices to pursue your dreams 2) being the 👍💯 best at something 3) be proactive with your improvement 4) you need to be strong mentality 5) are you be a game changer
I have a question though, or more of a dilemma. See, one of the things you would agree with is that to have a high chance to successfully play pro, a player would need to sacrifice some distractions or hobbies they have. The thing is that, I’m still 14, and I want to play professionally. My end goal is Europe in a top club, not just semi-pro or lower end. The reason being, and part of the dilemma, is that even though I am very confident in my abilities and ability to progress, I’ve always been more of a slow at life thinker. I’m somewhat more equipped at not an academic, but a life where I would more heavily find a profession later on in life that would require a higher intelligence to settle in. For example, a physicist, or writer. The school I’m also in is a STEM school and doesn’t have any sport teams and focuses rigorously on academics. That’s not the issue, I could find a team to play with, but I would be so busy with other things and passions, that I would end up only being able to devote at most an hour a day, none some days, and maybe a couple hours on free days. I really want to play professionally passionately, and I realize being 14 my window of opportunity for higher-level play is getting slimmer by the day. What would you recommend? I simply have other passions that I’m not willing and don’t believe I should sacrifice, even for something I love as much as football. I’m curious on your take on this, and I would appreciate a response.
I like it that you show parts that you shoot and not score, it makes me feel good and hopeful
Thanks mate! Really inspired me.
You're welcome mate!
I always believe in my self!!
This will help me a lot, thanks😊
No problem!
I'm the best at free kicks dribbling passes finishing agility and penalties but my coachs son takes all of them
Good shooting and quite true on the statements
Thanks mate
