Such a high stakes strategy. At best you retain possession into the midfield. At worst you’re conceding a goal. Much safer to go for a longer kick. If you get it, great. If you don’t, a good midfield can press the ball back into possession. Far safer. This relies on your defence have the tiki taka ability of Iniesta and Xavi in their prime, and a good opposition will realise this and press the hell out the back four when you’re doing this.
You can't switch to playing this way overnight. A team must be supported, especially at the younger ages, to dribble out from the back and pass out the back. As a coach you have to accept we will give the ball away and lose games in the short term - at younger ages the result shouldn't matter. In the long term, when the kids get older and the football is actually competitive, your team will thrive. The safest, quickest way to get the ball from one goal to the other is by passing it. If the opposition are setup to press super aggressively with many men waiting to press, then the space is in behind them - go long. Use the best tool for the job. It absolutely is worth it...under the right circumstances.
@@videozain I do like the idea and I praise your purity to the game, but I’ve been watching this being done in the Premiership this season by the top teams and it’s absolutely nerve wracking! A lot of the time they’re instantly on the back foot and having to resort to emergency defending. I wish you all the best! Hope it goes well. ✌️
@@psychoangus can you give an example of a game or team you've seen struggle with this in the Premier League? I must admit I mainly have exposure to the premier league. City have been doing this for years. They've dominated the premier League (hurts me to say that as a man utd fan). Arsenal are top of the league and they play like this. Top level coaching is a science. If you can control the variables it isn't a risk at all, it's very logical. The top teams are very methodically about playing out from the back. They control their opposition and space by baiting them and exploiting their predictably. Happy to elaborate. There's also no correct way 🙏
I wish my daughters coach understand I think this strategy results to conceding goals 90 percent of the time. While the game is going there way by attacking and dominating. This makes them receive goals instead of making goals. Also I feel like this doesn’t push the ball to the other end just allows the opponent team pressure and score. My opinion this don’t work need to let the goalie find an open wide player LM or RM with defense passing it to them. Don’t pass back to the goalie and I wonder do older age group do this ???
@@WORLDCLASSCOACHING In England at the younger age groups there is a retreat rule i.e. the opposition team must retreat to the halfway line on goal kicks. The FA do this to promote playing out the back and players actually developing good technical ability rather than lumping it forward.
During the goal kick, what do you think of only having 2 players in the box at the start? The 2 being the goalie and one centre back. The other centre back can join the 6 and can offer 2 options in the middle. Obviously it will be more risky but would to hear what you think
This is absolutely ridiculous. The risk/reward of doing this is just not worth the effort. I've been seeing the Colorado rapids attempt this in the MLS consistently and almost every single time it is an absolute failure. Let's stop trying to reinvent the game. Specially when as Americans we don't even come close to how it's played overseas.
Love your podcast. Thanks for this. Always a pleasure to listen to other coaches share ideas etc.
Love this method and love the new look!!!👌🏻
When the the rule change happen where a goal kick didn’t have to clear the 18 yard box before being touched

@@videozain Sure, as a Man Utd fan, maybe you remember Brentford vs Man Utd? Happens at 9 mins and again for Brentford’s second goal.

all levels including u14 can start goal kicks in the box?
Yes, all age groups.

We play 4 at the back (U13s) on a full size pitch. Would you recommend having them as close on that size pitch to make playing out easier?
Yes, relative to the side of the field.
Size of the field.

It's a numbers game.
If the opposition press with 1, we play out the back with 2 (as you described). If they press with 2 we have 3 etc.
