[@ModemX17]

Good video. I've coached for a while and my favorite phrase for defense is "Play the man, not the ball". It's similar to your golden rule. Use this to position them towards the outside and not the center of the field. To that point, watch their hips more than the ball. You can let the ball past you but don't let them past you and you'll be between them and their ball. Also, as a defender, get physical. The player with their shoulder in front, closest to the ball, wins so don't be afraid to muscle for position. Also, no "stabbing" or over reaching in with your foot like the defender does at 2:41. Don't over-commit on a ball and allow their body to pass you. It's harder to get past someone than it is to stop them so a defender should have the advantage, but if you're reaching in you reduce your success rate to probably less than 50% and allow people to take uninterrupted shots on goals. Lastly, to the point of knowing a players preferred foot; We all have a dominate foot and we first learn to use the inside of our foot and this builds habits, especially when pressured. These habits stick around through high school soccer and even into college ball. For most players age 3-18, a right footer will try to go left. They may fake or juke a lot before they do it, but as they make their move it will be to their left and your right. Keep your weight balanced to be able to get your right foot out quickly to stop it.

[@WithmeVerissimusWhostoned]

actually, the defender had a perfect opportunity to end it right there at 2:38 while the attacker was balancing on the left foot and doing bs with his right one. All that the defender had to do at that moment was to read the flow, lean on his right foot and propel his left one towards the ball pushing it behind the attacker. Instead he hesitated to take that opportunity and eventually backed off a bit giving the attacker more space to move and make a play. A defender who can dance is superior to an attacker who can dribble. For dancing teaches you way more extreme, sharper moves and balance shifts than any dribble ever will, I would know 'cause I do both football and streetdance, and I'm yet to meet an attacker who can dribble his way thru me. \o/

@UNIT: THOT Destroyer bro practice makes perfect when ur ready then ask your coach to put u in, Tip: one thing that overtakes most things is pressure, even if you don’t have that much skills make sure your chasing the ball and pressuring the player don’t get out of your position in the field tho. 👍👌

I may be a average offensive player, but I have alot of pride in my defense. We defenders don't get enough credit for being able to defend those players with crazy ball handling skills. It takes alot of skill too to close angles and contain at the same time.

[@harveysmusicschoollizaman2290]

[@SalmanAhmed-nb2lr]

​@@0sarah0Me too😂😂😂

[@donaldlensegrav9434]

I've realized that as a defender instead of "shooting" your foot towards the ball and getting megged, just stand the attacker up. Then when he or she goes for a running then you either shield or "shoot" the ball. By doing so, it reduces the attacker's chances of going past you.

[@not_cam2546]

I'm a left back but my coach has me as a defender rather than a winger-mix. These tips are extremely helpful.

[@aggels-zk7lu]

I play full back sometimes you have to help the team in they attacking 3 you have to find space so you can take the ball and cross

[@Leo-np4hq]

ye i get played just defensive like a cb

[@guywhocantgrowabeard]

Very well put. I honestly love the art of defending and these things are so important. Diving in is for idiots. You always do your best to stay on your feet. So many people forget that you play football with your BRAIN. And this is especially true with defending. It's an entirely cerebral thing.

[@adonispetcu873]

Thank you mate ive improved so much since i started watching you

The resist the urge to dive in advice made a difference of night and day to me, I was diving in too often making dribbling past me pretty easy. Great video

[@adamschomberger3636]

Containment ! Just shared this same concept with my team last night. Great job explaining the value of buying more time for your team even if it is just one extra second!

[@mehmetcucel3962]

I'm probably very late to the party, I just discovered Will John and his beautiful defending videos. I play defence for my side and I would like to improve my game enough to transition to CM one day and I played RB last game. Will John's basic teaching is perfect and I will try everything I learned from Mr John in mg play.

[@Goluremi]

Will John Likes this comment Mr. John agrees that Will John is good at teaching hahah Thanks for watching bro

[@ericmel6005]

@3:09 I agree what you're saying about the best time for defender to step in, however that could be difficult for defender to determine which movement of the attacker is true or faint.

[@perparmiha]

Focus on the ball not his legs

[@adityaverma5297]

Yes exactly!! So I contain and when the attacker touches inward, I feel that's the moment he's cutting in and going for it and I lunge in, but he immediately cuts it outward and I'm in an awkward position. I play CM but I find defense very hard specially when I'm against an attacker on the wing

[@brentvilcas4390]

@@adityaverma5297 So you are right to contain inward but once he has cut outward you have pretty much won there. When he is on the flank the only real option he has is to cross or cut inside but with limited space. Make sure to block the ball with your inner foot never I repeat NEVER block with a crossed body. Thats a tip not many defenders talk about

Some great tips here, I use 4/5 of them. I like the idea of putting your body across when he touches to get away from you, this would be useful in small sided games also especially as I play 5aside just as much as 11. He mentions about diving in, still till this day people do it ha, especially in the box and in the professional game I see it, forwards are too clever now for you too do it any contact they are down.
