Thank you so much I am 13 and thanks to you I have turned in to the best soccer player on my school soccer team atleast thats what my coach said I was a sucky player but I have improved at soccer and its all because of you and your tutorials.
Great video tutorial man! I've played soccer my whole life but never really learned great shooting techniques. My technique was so bad that I always seemed to hurt my knee or my ankle when I strike the ball with power. More often than not I just hit grass and hurt myself. Even when I hit a great shot, there didn't seem to have enough power behind it. Last night I watched the video, and this morning I put what I learned to practice and it made a huge difference. I was hitting the ball so sweetly that it was hissing and was swerving all over the place.
I was practicing this technique in a field near my house and I got depressed because I thought my shots where not powerful enough... it turns out that I was shooting about 40 meters away from goal... so yeah... anyway thanks for this it really helped!
that video realy realy realy helped me. im 14 and i had the problem that i stike the ball high and this was because of my body position,after watchig this video i can strike the ball lower. thanks josh, prbably the best tutorial on youtube, the other channels are showing just where to shot the ball and the boot contact area
I watched this a LONG time ago and already hit the "thumbs up". I just came across it again and wish a could give it another "like". Excellent video, Josh.
Wow this really helped me.I had a match to day and I'm not very good at striking the ball but once I watched this vid i can strike the ball well.All I need to improve on is accuracy
This video was very helpful, I'm a striker and I always used to swing my knee through to strike the ball, this video helped my technique and Helped me devolep a better knuckleball shot thnx Josh
Josh first of all I think your soccer skills videos are a great idea and help for everyone. I would like to ask a soccer skill video for improving Ball Control for long passes and lobs. Keep it up Josh!
Thanks josh, i used to think that was stupid and always used my sweet spot for a power shot. This helped me be a better shooter overall as a defender shooting out of the box.
it's really important to ensure you stay balanced through all aspects of the motion. if you're not balanced over the ball correctly, or not balanced as you approach the ball, then you're not going to transfer the power from your run into your shooting leg and through your foot and into the ball. simple balancing exercises through your plant foot can really help ensure that you balance and get your weight through the ball as you strike
thank you so much for this tutorial it is the best on RUclips . Other tutorials are short. You are the best know I know how to strike the ball with the laces.
its all in the motion about the run up and technique, if you noticed.. in slow motion as your running up to the ball, your leg takes one big stride towards the ball and you plant your foot, and your other leg is already in the right position for the follow through all you need to do is lock your ankle and you got the right shooting technique
It's weird because I find I can shoot much better with my adidas f10 messi boots as opposed to my hypervenoms, but interestingly enough I can't shoot at all with my mercurial vapour's but I find hypervenoms best for comfort.. do you really think it makes a difference or is it all mental?
Great video, Josh! Love the slow-mo shots. Very helpful. You should eventually do a tutorial on striking with the outside of the foot with and without curve.
Josh could you please do some more tutorials wether it be striking on the run, bending the ball, heading, control. Anything you think you could make a tutorial of that would be good to use in a game scenario would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Josh can you do a tutorial about stopping the ball. I found it is even more important while playing real games.Or maybe a video covered both passing and stopping.
thanks for the great video. Could you also post a guide for one touch passing(accuracy, high balls - i guess people call it first touch too) and curving the ball(crossing, physics of topspin dipping etc). Thank you again!
Hi Josh I play right wing and I need to practice crossing and first touch. Could you do a video on either or both of these please. Much appriated thanks
Josh, I know you mentioned that certain shoes don't really matter, but does the position of the lace matter? I've been debating whether to buy Nike Mercurial or Nike Hypervenom, but the Mercurial has the laces directly on top where as the Hypervenom has the laces slightly to the side. Does that affect the power and accuracy of your shots?
Dipping free kicks, and just the general stuff like curling and wobbling the ball in the air would be great. I know it's something that I just can't get right
How about a tutorial on efficient trapping. I found the recently that I can't trap well when the ball comes with a large amount of power to me. It bounces off of me and rolls a few steps away and those few steps are enough for an opponent to take the ball from me.
When it is coming with power try to cushion the ball when it comes to you by dropping your foot back when the ball is about to hit it so it greatly slows the speed and drops it right in front of you.
Hey Josh can you make a video on how to strike the ball when its moving, like in a game i shoot and it comes out HORRIBLE because its hard to hit a moving ball for me
Thank you so much I am 13 and thanks to you I have turned in to the best soccer player on my school soccer team atleast thats what my coach said I was a sucky player but I have improved at soccer and its all because of you and your tutorials.

if you cant get power from longshots go for a half powerful chip shot so go for backspin
I was practicing this technique in a field near my house and I got depressed because I thought my shots where not powerful enough... it turns out that I was shooting about 40 meters away from goal... so yeah... anyway thanks for this it really helped!
Long passing and short passing! And finesse shots! -3 everything. Your tutorials are the best! So detailed and nice to watch.
that video realy realy realy helped me. im 14 and i had the problem that i stike the ball high and this was because of my body position,after watchig this video i can strike the ball lower. thanks josh, prbably the best tutorial on youtube, the other channels are showing just where to shot the ball and the boot contact area

Hey Josh, it would be nice if you could make more tutorials! I really enjoy them and I'm sure others will too.
It took me 6 months to learn how to strike the ball now I'm 14 doing freekicks knuckles dips bends ect thanks to you Josh :)
I want other vids like this from Josh. It would be nice to see a video on how to strike deadly while moving with the ball.
Seriously a long pass tutorial or passing tutorial will be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks. Having troubling in shooting with power. I'm gonna use what you said this afternoon.
thanx Josh for making this vid. because i cant shoot side but now since i watched your your vid i can now shoot side foot. thank you
Josh first of all I think your soccer skills videos are a great idea and help for everyone. I would like to ask a soccer skill video for improving Ball Control for long passes and lobs. Keep it up Josh!
Great information. I think you should cover more on the plant foot skipping off the floor as part of the natural momentum of the strike
Thanks josh, i used to think that was stupid and always used my sweet spot for a power shot. This helped me be a better shooter overall as a defender shooting out of the box.
you are an amazing teacher! thanks you so much for all ur videos and explanations! God bless you! keep it going!
Really good tutorial
The super slow motion was really effective, thankyou!
it's really important to ensure you stay balanced through all aspects of the motion. if you're not balanced over the ball correctly, or not balanced as you approach the ball, then you're not going to transfer the power from your run into your shooting leg and through your foot and into the ball. simple balancing exercises through your plant foot can really help ensure that you balance and get your weight through the ball as you strike
thx
thank you so much for this tutorial it is the best on RUclips . Other tutorials are short. You are the best know I know how to strike the ball with the laces.

Great tutorial Man , You specify On everything and Give Great tips . Thanks ... Subscribed
its all in the motion about the run up and technique, if you noticed.. in slow motion as your running up to the ball, your leg takes one big stride towards the ball and you plant your foot, and your other leg is already in the right position for the follow through all you need to do is lock your ankle and you got the right shooting technique
the best way its making your own technique, i did it and now i have an almost perfect knucleball, just keep practicing :)
It's weird because I find I can shoot much better with my adidas f10 messi boots as opposed to my hypervenoms, but interestingly enough I can't shoot at all with my mercurial vapour's but I find hypervenoms best for comfort.. do you really think it makes a difference or is it all mental?

Literally the same technique, accept while moving. Practice this technique without the ball moving, once comfortable with it, practice it on the move.

Josh can you do a tutorial about stopping the ball. I found it is even more important while playing real games.Or maybe a video covered both passing and stopping.

Hi Josh I play right wing and I need to practice crossing and first touch. Could you do a video on either or both of these please. Much appriated thanks
Josh, I know you mentioned that certain shoes don't really matter, but does the position of the lace matter?

How about a tutorial on efficient trapping. I found the recently that I can't trap well when the ball comes with a large amount of power to me. It bounces off of me and rolls a few steps away and those few steps are enough for an opponent to take the ball from me.

With a large amount of power try to deflect it directly down
Thank you so much I'm better at striking now!
Hey Josh can you make a video on how to strike the ball when its moving, like in a game i shoot and it comes out HORRIBLE because its hard to hit a moving ball for me
