"football is a game of opinions" 100% true
WAZZA10 Rooney so true, vardy,kante both non league not seen as good enough for top league now look at them
Kuku Man Well kante never played in non league. And kante wasnt deemed not good enough, but just not noticed
@@mathias6947 04:40 also a misquote .
it really is when I was 15 I was on trial at Sheffield united (as a Sheffield Wednesday fan no less lol) and I had a month trial at which point I felt I belonged these players were my level and my dad who played for semi pro and almost pro told me I looked like I fired that level but the trial ended and the coach said to me "you have really impressed us and should be proud, however your no better than the current striking options we currently have so its gonna be a no" This baffled me as their academy had mostly grown up tougher at that academy since the u8 age. So they had 8 years of professional level coaching and here comes me from Sunday league with no professional coaching being told no because I only match the current quality but in my head surely with their coaching I could excel the current players. But the game really is about opinions as months later SWFC came for me and were on the brink of signing me to the academy and then I tore my ligaments in a trial match, and that was that. But two academies with two very different outlooks whilst having similar quality through their squads, I was good enough for one and not the other.
Great to see your were at their level when not part of an academy.
Sorry to hear about your ligament.
Injuries are seldom fair.

This should be top comment

Everybody's path is different, don't compare your situation to others and be patient

Alex hunter
Tom Edgell 4 years in the academy and it all comes down to an exit trial
and to think.... there's kids who don't even get this opportunity....
Life is unfair.
@@samikose2370 unjust
I swr...i hav seen kids wit crazy talent but no opportunity
If there are amateur players reading this wondering how they can get a exit trial - it's reserved primarily for released scholars. Though there are lots of open trials available. I just did a few with LA Galaxy and a few organisations that get scouts to come watch your games. I'm just uploading my experiences at those games now so come watch if you want.
Good luck to all these ballers. Football is tough, but hope to see at least a few of them will succeed and create their own Jamie Vardy type stories 💪🏼
Train Effective just watched your 2/2 trial for galaxy 😉
same
Train Effective i
Train Effective do you need to get a scholarship to become a footballer
No
4:30, the kid he’s talking about is Eberechi Eze. Why that man has a job in head of recruitment is beyond me, what a talent he is now...

Sorry, but I have to ask.
How do u know he is referring to Eberechi Eze?
@@MayaBishopStan Because in 2017, Eberechi Eze was having what many people thought was his last chance at Milwall. Then they didn’t see his potential and he luckily got given a chance by QPR. Imagine if he hadn’t been given a chance then by QPR and how much talent would be wasted
@@saltandpepe3916 Thanks for explaining.
That Millwall coach looks like a proper 'ave it!' or "get it the fuck out!" kinda coach.
Samuel Matthews he does
Samuel Matthews Wouldn't expect anything less to be fair.
"Fuck you, I'm Millwall"
He's the type of man to fight isis with his bare hands.
And that's why England are useless compared to other giants in international football cos the English get a boner seeing good tackles whereas the rest of the world enjoy technical ability.
I hope Rhys Springer - Downes makes it big, purely for selfish reasons. I'm trying to recruit a whole squad of double - barrelled surnames on Football Manager.

Do you hate commentators?
Luca Ashby-Hammond in goal??
Hahaha

The other side of football that so many people don’t appreciate. Guys like this need more support and mentally too as being dropped from a football club after being there for so long can leave a deep scar for the rest of some people’s lives. It’s great that there is a plan like this but I think these guys need more.
This video has inspired me. Im 37, you will see me on tv soon. Not giving up.. just quit my job to take on full time training
Jackson Costello 😂😂😂
Tell me you are joking
Arxenus _RBLX ikr he is too late and he is probably 12 anyway
I feel u from heart Jackson Costello I feel u NEVER GIVE UP. IF THERE ARE PLAYERS THAT STARTED AT 17. U STARTED AT 37 AND NEVER IVE UP EVER NO MMATTER WHAT AND THIS IS COMING FROM A PERSON WHO IS BROKEN DEEP DOWN I LOVE FOOTBALL AND IT IS GODS GIFT TO THIS WORLD AND EVERYONE CAN PLAY IT NO MATTER WHAT AGE. JACKSON COSTELLO- I HOPE TO SEE THAT NAME ONE DAY. I LOVE YOU AND KEEP GOING.
LOL
alex hunter proves u can do still get somewer from the exit trials
Humzah Aslam are you being sarcastic?
Account - no he's serious.....
Arty he does but he isn’t called alex and he doesn’t play football
r/whoooosh
at least english players are not moved all over europe before they are told to give up by some know it all.. many african kids are moved to france and germany and then either left to fend for themselves at 14 or constantly moved all over europe
true but the English kids normally decide to pursue a different career as there is many careers in England whereas the foreign players e.g. African players have less careers to pursue and normally come from a poor family so they will do anything just to try and make it big to change their lives. As you seen in this video some of these players were wearing branded clothes Armani etc. whereas the foreign players wouldn't be able to afford much so they try to become a pro football player as it is few choices of careers.
This should have way more views and comments. Brilliant video.
😍
Internet credibility
Brilliant documentary👏👏
Thank you for your words 👌
Quality documentary guys!
Come back to watch this so many times, wish you guys still made content. Only show the true side of football!
this channel is Gold for football fans !!
phenomenal stuff. so glad that you guys do what you do.
Excellent watch. Phenomenal pressure on these kids, particularly the ones that have been in academies since 8 or 9 years old and have known nothing else. Great that these trials exist but hopefully there's some type of support system for the kids that can't get back in the game.
Really sick!
Great video looks like it should be on tv. Top notch vid
Great documentary. Thanks fourfourtwo! Keep it up !!!
So kind - thank you very much 👍
great insight! love this video.
Absolutely stunning
My younger brother is gold because He Young 19 year old and he play very well always our football club also school and college football Tornament I don’t want west him I want show the world Inshallah soon He is the best defender best of luck my Hero proud of you ❤️❤️⚽️❤️❤️
This really inspired me...
Thanks alot🇯🇲🇯🇲❤⚽️
really motivational, love this video
Thanks for this great video. !!!
We make these for you, so we love seeing them received so well 👍
Good portrayal on the harsh reality.its not always the glamorous life a lot of us believe. I had a similar experience
Reminds me of the journey. I think Celtic have an Open trial coming up, may look into it. Good luck to everyone out there chasing their dreams. Remember, it's never too late. Great video as well, extremely well put together.
Are they having trials? And what age group?
Brilliant stuff! Hope all the lads involved have been picked up somewhere!
Fantastic thanks
Inspirational!
Really interesting!
Great documentary
This gives me so much motivation
This is so inspiring it has helped me improve my game. Hopefully more of this kind to be released. Thank you.
Wow this channel is amazing
This is great.
hp00018899
amazing video
Football is cut throat
has to be, too many people trying to become football players
triga Very true. Becoming a professional footballer for a top club is highly unlikely. Too many people focus on footballing careers with no other back up option.
@@samhollowood6575 and that's how it should be . Napoleon Hill . Burn all the bridges
Always remember no matter what, training, playing, EVERY DAY is an extended interview, EVERY DAY you are re writing your CV, be a role model for you and for others, stay focused, work hard, commitment, remain professional on and off the pitch, show passion, desire, character, leadership, good body language, the easiest thing for me is to open the door, there is no easy way to close it, good luck all. “Talent gets you to the door; attitude and daily work takes you inside”. #EyesandEars.
Mark Anderson is a good guy but he is a nice person and he will always do the same thing
I signed Cal Templeton on Football Manager and he was actually amazing for me!
TomFM do u have a series with it
Brayden Abbott Yeah it's on my channel. The series is called Zero To Hero and I start out with Chelmsford
What is his potential
More of these kinds of videos please.
Very good documentary
Make more videos like these please
Thanks
really pleased for the lad that is probably going to motherwell the spl has created top careers for many players so best of luck to him
randomshotz13 he is playing non league now
He plays for Aberythswyth Town
cool love this
After watching this I feel bad cause I terminated Rhys' contract on my QPR save on FM 😢
He was released by QPR in May, too...
I am 18 this year and i really want to become a pro. Unfortunately i never join a acedemy before. My physical side is not really good.. that made me stressred out everyday. But if a team give me an opprtunity i swear i'll give everything i got to get pro contract. Football is life.. and i will never give up.
Timmy Dom that's it bro. I wanna become a footballer too I'm 14
Timmy Dom you honestly have no chance mate
Ben Mack maybe i can prove you wrong bro
William Akingba try your hardest bro
Ben Mack W
7:12 everything wrong with the scouting system in this country
Tee Syal so true I'm 15 scouted and dropped once however other guys my age with noticeable less technique have been scouted and kept on contract for years now
Ethan Maguire Yh mate that happens a lot. Hopefully u can make it!
Adi Utd thanks😁👍🏻
Old fucking dinosaur. Guy doesn't even realise JT is one of the most cultured and technically capable CBs this country has ever produced.
Scouts like him should be banned from football.
My home town woking !
Never give up!
“No one has generated this much interest from an exit trail in years”- some geezer on the journey on fifa
Sam is a talent. So is the left back. Definitely becoming professionals. Black right back is one of the best. These guys are gems.
Thanks Pep🙄🤣🤣
Sam looks like Dybala
César Ariel yeah he's a great looking lad
Wee Joe you're better looking though Joey.
Broo I kept on thinking that but finally found ur comment
this channel is awesome. are there any career opportunities?
The difference is that these didn’t keep giving 100% after disappointment, keep going even if you get knocked back.
,nice. work hard and harder
These are proper level headed decently intelligent kids they got, was expecting some absolute mugs
Hope Sam gets into Motherwell as I'm from Scotland and would be go to see if he does well
Micky Adams.....Brighton legend.
Never give up
I think is time to make the Bale's story.... is a guy who start from Academys and with his possion reached at this level
nice :)
can you do a tutorial on standing tackles plz
Never give up, lots of trials around the uk are happening
I’m a very good player do you have any opportunities for me ?
Give me your email
Remember Tom Rogic? So happy for him
A huge percentage will be successful in other sectors. If you've been released from an Academy, this IS NOT the end and many will go on to successful careers doing different things
This just motivated me

Keep the dream alive
They were playing at Woking FC
I know what that guy means about loss of confidence. I'm 15 now and after playing for one academy being dropped then leaving the next two semi professional/feeder teams I played for I can honestly say now I'm a shadow of my old self two years ago😞
How are you doing now?
D1 is pretty fun
in england during 70s and 80s even 90s players had more opportunities - You really have to be a special talent to make it these days.
I’m 14 and really want to go pro. However, I’m not very good and am in the shadow of all my friends. One positive is that I play for the u 15s of a conference team, but a very low one.
We Will All Make It
kenny appiah 🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏
This was mostly filmed at the Woking fc ground the team I support!
Hope Rhys makes it. Seems like a really nice guy with his head screwed on
This must be nerve wracking
Can we please have a follow up
7:25 you should give your best when Rocky Balboa came to watch you play.
Foot ball is my life
Glad the Welsh boy had a club. Wales forever
If Paul dummett and jack colback made it anyone can
I use to play for millwall and Barry Dunn was the one who released me😂 I’m not giving up though!
How old were you when you got released? And at what club are you now?
Think of how many potentially world class players have been overlooked
I'm depressed now
why?
Declan Melvin I felt like there was zero positives. The color was very gloomy.
it was shot in log footage and not graded very well
True
Hey Anthony this has been said many times but brother I AM WILLING TO FIGHT FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PLAY FUTBOL THE BEAUTIFUL GAME. GO OUT AND PLAY IT. IF U ARE DEPPRESED. NO DONT BE BECAUSE U ARE IN YOUR DOWNS. U HAVE UPS AND DOWNS IN LIFE. YOU ARE CHOSEN OR YOU ARE NOT CHOSEN. YOU MIGHT CRY SOMETIMES BECAUSE ITS REALLY HARD ANND HITS U BUT THAT IS UNFORTUNATELY LIFE MAN. GOD GAVE THIS WORLD THE SPORT OF FOOTBALL. GO OUT AND PLAY THE WAY U WANT. ANTHONY DONT GIVE UP THERES UPS AND DOWNS MY BROTHER. COMING FROM A BROKEN PERSON.
i have trials in two weeks
That Milwall scout is so old school fucking hell
Millwall in general is old school to the core which is why their fans are regarded as the worst in the country.
That guy insulted Terry. Technically, Terry can hold his own with the best PL CBs.
was that port vale FC ground
Some guys might think about American Universities and American Soccer leagues. Im sure there was a Southend United player that went there when it didnt work out at Southend.
Update:
Cal now plays for Coventry
Joshua Starkey really thanks for telling I was updating to see if any had a pro contract what’s his surname? 👍
Where r they now
The reason why a lot of these youngsters get rejected is that big clubs prefer to spend a lot of money on foreign players. A number of them don't play well during their careers in England.
Where's alex hunter?
I dont know how fast i will be able to do in
Sam Phillips played for my brothers team
What team is that?
Mark Phillips haughmond
Would all players get an interest from clubs?
