Messi Uses This Fundamental Move All The Time

- It's called the stutter steps! Take the timing away from the defender by utilizing these steps. It will help you to imbalance the defender or take control of when the defender gets to react to you in whichever direction you want.

Watch this if you're a beginner soccer player learning to improve the first touches
one of my friends mastered this and it really proved to be very effective. he doesnt have the speed but w this + amazing ball control, the ball sticks to his feet even under opponents press and in tight space
You nailed it in the head. This + keeping the ball so tight can give you a great advantage to win on the timing battles and changing the directions easily in difficult situations
Playing like Messi is so much harder than doing the typical tricks flips and stepovers you need so much self control and coordination. Young messi like 20 years old was also super quick I can't imagine how frustrating it was for players trying to control him lol i would've gotten a red card for sure lol.
Exactly! Even at a decent local level those small guys with quick turns and accelerations are night mare to defend. So just imagine that sort of level 🤣
This has always been my best move... best tip I'd have is to use your eyes to throw off the defenders as well by looking hard in a direction or at a player on your team then cut the other way after a body feint/stutter step and you're gone.
Great tip!
I have been using this exact type of rhythm and cadence work for years. Amazing to see it being detailed here as well 🔥
@@donnel234 thabk you! Ballers know 😉
Never seen any football tips as good n effective as this.
Surely gonna improve my game.
Appreciate your feedback!
I agree. It's an technique that you see pro players use all the time but he really broke it down well so that even youth players could develop this skill quite easily.
Yep! The best feints are all about shifts of weight and Messi is the GOAT.
Ben- one thing I notice you doing wrong with your stutter is you are stomping flat footed on the final step (ball and heel hit the ground at the same time). Look at Frank, he leads with the heel, which allows him to cushion and therefore his lowering of his body is more controlled, less impact on the joints (knee!), and lets him get wider and further down in the lunge.
I was a tap dancer for many years before I started playing soccer. Tap is all about shifting weight, so this kind of feint came naturally to me.
Great video, great spirit! Fun to watch.
Great eyes! Ben sadly has struggled with balance after injuries at younger ages, which as a result shows a bit of imbalance with certain movements.
Thanks for a great comment! Some great points! We appreciate your time to watch our video and give feedback.
@@thelbperformance1 I was wondering if it might be something like that! Working on those mechanics (slowly 🙂) will actually help him protect his knee more (especially on those harder artificial surfaces). He might just work that technique on a single lunge (heel leading) to the side, gradually increasing the length of the lunge. Then, when he does the lunge as part of the stutter step, he'll have the muscle memory of the correct mechanics.
Thanks for the great video!
@@berkeleybernie I think you just provided us with a great video idea ;)
Any other lessons you have about footwork? I do think the best players, basketball and soccer are like dancers... If anything comes to your mind I'd love to hear it. I really appreciated your comment cause the kinetic chain is everything, especially when coming to efficient and healthy movements
@@Murasak3y I'm not sure I have much to offer because I've internalized the principles of shifting weight. And also, genetically I have the body type prone to develop fast twitch muscles. I think, generally speaking, you want to be free to move in whichever direction is needed at any instant. That means being on the balls of your feet, not flatfooted, and able to shift weight immediately. The same principle applies to tap dancing as it does to being a musician. As a musician, once a finger has completed playing a note, you want it free to move to the next note, not still stuck on the key/fret/valve/whatever. You get it into a neutral position as soon as it's completed its last task. In tap dancing, it's the same- be able to shift to the opposite foot quickly so the other foot is free to make sounds, not still stuck on the floor.
In tennis, watch how a pro like Federer (one of the all-time greats at footwork) stays on the balls of his feet and keeps them moving, able to respond instantly.

In soccer, footwork drills like these are helpful:
ruclips.net/video/omvckxoF9OI/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/8KHxCFklIYo/видео.html
Especially look at how the feet are constantly moving while waiting to receive the ball here:
ruclips.net/video/gedaCw79SlY/видео.html
When you are in the open field, of course you are often running full out. But once you are around the opponent's box, don't just stand still. Keep your feet moving so, if you do receive a pass, you aren't caught stuck flatfooted. This will improve your first touch.
Hope that helps!
Awesome content as always 👌👏
I am going to practice it today
Let’s go 🔥🔥
Great content ! Thank you
@@rcdegruttola5089 we are happy to be helpful!
Noone would believe but i like to meditate on football skills I came up to this one its just a step forward it doesn matter if you turn your body ankle etc cuz its fast, very useful to the middle camp, the other one really game changing i got to is that if u keep the ball behind u while going forward u basically can dribble anyone this patron seems to be a characteristic in football sala or street, well if not enogh the oner its more a mechanical awareness of the body we need 3 steps to stop, then we can dribble generally when we are at some speed then u can dribble. I have others very useful but im tired of typing haha
Stutter steps are a natural skill in south america.
💯
Greetings from Guatemala city 🇬🇹
You are missing the touch that Messi used to do like double small touch just before a sprint.
Example, do left shoulder faint and suddenly small push to the ball of right side and then you have to use your last touch with fully sprint...
Remember your first faint also need to effect him, like move for a little...
Movement speed also the main thing of Messi's dribbling.
It is depend on your defender and your movement speed..
Let say your Df using his speed,
then you should go for a slow one, just after that, you should back to speed again...
You have to make him flow on your rhythm...
To do perfectly is all about the muscle memory..... You need to train for a long time.....
You have to feel the defender movement, and read the space of your around......not only a front....😊
great video, particularly the real one on one, when we need to apply and adapt to real life game. thank you. chris. scotland
Appreciate the kind feedback Chris!
u should include some Messi videos
@@capitalistrebel9358 sadly didn’t want to risk copyright problems!
@thelbperformance1 inserting a few 2-5 second clips would be classified by fair use......plus lots of RUclipsrs have reaction videos that last 20mins+ that don't get flagged/banned.
Stutter steps + la croqueta = Boom, you beat 80+% success rate
You know the sauce
Godlike content
You're too generous
@@thelbperformance1 Honestly. It was very lively and fun to watch. Keep it up🤗
This channel is called LB performance, but what if i am a RWB? Or IRWB?
@@tf-ok LB stands for Lee and Brewer 🤣🤣
@@thelbperformance1 oh crap, I'm a goofball
@@tf-ok hahahaha you gave us a good laugh though 😉
Nice Video. I am practicing this move for a couple of months now. Its more difficult then it seems.
When you showed this move with shadow defender, i notice a couple of things:
- when you execute the cut, you kind of lift your right leg a lot higher then you show before without defender. Messi also keeps his leg very close to the ball. almost like a reverse aka.
- your body/hips are already give it away you want to cut to the right. Before the cut i would try to point your shoulder hips more to the left and when you cut give it a spin to the right. On the hop point your toes of your left feet to the left and on the cut/landing more to the right. I find this pretty difficult myself
Genuinely a great observation.
This could be a result of a habit that’s been built over a very long time of playing or my specific body mechanics as everyone has it differently.
Of course, some specific mechanics can come as more effective and efficient but just on a personal note, this is what works for me and at my current stage I find it difficult to break the mechanics as it’s been subconsciously used for the past 20 years or so 😅
However, I believe it still comes down to ‘what works for you’ and ‘your preference’ within the frame as everyone is different!
@thelbperformance1 Thanks so much for your response! You’re absolutely right-what works best really does vary from person to person, and that’s one of the things I love most about this game. Everyone brings their own unique style and personality to the table. I hope my previous comment didn’t come across as criticism; reading it back, I realized it might have sounded a bit blunt. My intention was simply to share a thought and contribute to the conversation. Appreciate your videos!
@@stefanduchhart oh absolutely didn’t come across that way and you’re very much correct! I appreciate your time to share your thoughts and provide feedback! 👊
Clear and easy to understand.
Thank you for your feedback! We will continue to do our best
Nice video, bro! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you 😍
Notice how he takes his touch slightly BACK: this negates that super annoying last ditch trailing leg
Good video. One thing I wasn’t sure about was you started off explaining why the trailing foot should stay connected to the ground, then moved to the ‘skipping’ part with the trailing foot off the ground. Was that intentional and if so why the alteration from the earlier explanation?
Just a different variation but here is an explanation. Also note that everyone’s mechanics and balances are different so mine are not necessarily right or wrong, just need to do what works for your body within the frame
Explanation: The feint with the foot connected to the ground - if you’re feinting to the left, your second to last step is done with the right foot, thus I find it easier for me to land on my left foot to finish the feint and have my weight shifted heavily without losing the balance.
The ‘skip’ is kicking off of your left foot to land on the left, thus my right leg naturally comes off the ground when I try to shift my weight with force. If I try and have my right foot stay connected to the ground I naturally lose a portion of force in weight shifting, making my feint less effective in the split moment.
I hope this explanation helps!
Thank you !! Amazing 🙏🏾🫶🏾
Appreciate your feedback
Appreciate your feedback
A stutter step looks like more of a plan B after the initial feint doesn't work. It's just another feint.
Quality content
@@jjporter6179 appreciate the kind feedback!
Those laces making me anxious bro
Need a laces sponsor ASAP
Mostros, verdaderos cracks
I'm heading to the primer league with this skill
I'd say Mahrez does it perfectly too
Yesss. A lot of good wingers including Mahrez and Bernardo Silva. You can also see Odegaard utilizing it very well
@@thelbperformance1 Yeah , the kind of dribble that doesn't look fancy but so effective to eliminate or set a player and create chances to your teamates
Exactly. Keeping the ball close, and easy to change body orientation without having to maneuver the ball much and therefore maximizing the utilization of the little space you create 💥
Wow❤
Ha! Maybe my young children can demonstrate. They learned studder stepping at a very young age.
Building good fundamentals at earlier stage is definitely better!
The video was great man the coaching was super clear. But the final 1v1 tho lol idk man yall make way too much tbh. I mean its cool for having fun with it but the thing at least in the pro level is try to be the most effective possible like with way less touches, just one or two step consistent moves to make the defender cross and pass him. At least from what ive seen in videos from the pros doing 1v1 drills thats the difference between them and amateur players, specially in todays modern football. Im from argentina tho lol we do like overdribbling🤣 but thats actually what Messi did, take that essence of the typical close-dribbling/hip-feinting south american skillful player, but perfect it with the typical european modern football effectiveness and consistency.
@@franmaga28 haha we definitely get your point!
Also in the 11v11 game the 1v1 situations are definitely different as it’s never truly just focusing on the ball and a player. There are players running into different spaces to create different pictures so the 1v1 can be more simple, effective, and fast. In the video’s case, in a relatively small space where a defending player just has to focus on the ball and not getting beat it definitely changes the scenario and complicates it a little more for the attackers - hence the over dribbling and many touches haha
shows him a skill move proceeds to just beat him with speed instead

You just can’t learn soccer like this, this move comes naturally to kids, then you refine it but to teach it from scratch is impossible. Also at 11:00 the reason why you needed the step over after the fake was because you did the fake wrong. The step over more protected the ball rather than send the defender the wrong way. The devil is in the details with 1000s of hours of practice.
I would have to disagree on this. The whole point is to get the fundamental, or to understand the concept of the steps. You’ll be surprised with the number of young players that can come up with the preferred variations that arise from the concept through trial and error. This is precisely why the aim is not to provide a specific skill move but rather a a tangible concept that can be translated into different variations of their choices in different situations.
At 11:00 I’d not say the fake was ‘wrong’. It was used to gauge the defender’s movement and the timing of the my next actions.
Again, concepts and variations as situations call.
@@thelbperformance1 Then the fundamental would be to make the defender think you going one way and go the other way. That happens before the feint, the feint is just you transitioning to the other direction. Anyway, like I said many kids good at soccer pick this up without being taught it, by just playing soccer in an unstructured environment.
@@justtestingonce Right. The other arguement is at the game of relativity you can't just execute and go - therefore at times you need gauge the window of opportunity using different tools, in this case the steps.
And agree about the unstructured environment. Sadly, that type of environment is disappearing day after day and especially in the US. So the point of this video is to provide a value on showing the tool, and for the ones who already have the tool, it can be to perhaps correct their form, or take on a variation of it. It's what you make of it as any experience and opinion
I’m 14 do I still have time😅
@@ezstudio1764 don’t let anyone determine it for you
Bribery is his fundamental move . All he has to do is do his weekly payroll to infantino and fifa officials
😂😂 broo chill
Ah yes the amazing plays I see from him are from bribery 😂
@@TheMiist nth amazing about pessidog . Even harry maguire is a better player . Anthony runs faster than pessi . The only reason pessidog is aknowledged by fifa is because the referees and officials are under his payroll . 0 talent
What did Messi do to you lol
watch ball,, then destroy
Easier said than done
I like you're covering this but the language you use could be much clearer. You're talking about skipping but it's a two quick hops.
Thank you for the feedback! We’ll continue to improve
@@thelbperformance1 I thought you did a terrific job. This is the best breakdown of Messi’s feint technique that I’ve seen (and I’ve seen many). Keep up the great work
Nooo why you showin them the secretttss
Oops 🙊
So its a body fient..
We never said it wasn’t :)
@@thelbperformance1 no pun intended but your elaboration was very technical and precise thanks.
@@josephsmth646 thank you!
You can't teach futbol imo you can only learn by playing the game
Find your own style of play
Therefore youth coaching and licenses are a waste of time
@@thelbperformance1 imo yes and no at a certain time in a players life they should grow up playing the game and learn how to create space themselves that way they understand the game on an instinctive level when they reach 25 we can get in to teach kids how to play in a system but at the same time make sure that thing that makes them unique flourishes. If had the power I would set it up so I academies take in players at the age of 25 if that makes sense. I hope I didn't offend you you seem to have a good heart. I just think what kids need is to play the game.
Very poor as did not even show Messi doing this.
You’ve never seen Messi dribble, bruh?
White shirt/shorts lad is embarrassing himself.
How so?
