As a midfielder, shielding the ball is really important, can you please give us some tips on shielding the ball.

[@emmanuelakinde6208]

Turning can be very productive, you create a lot of space by taking the defender's momentum against him. You find your self running into a defender or with a defend just TURN, "BOOM" he is lost. Will take loads of reps with a teammate to get used to this one. You wanna play like Frenkie DeJong Master the Reverse step Over turn first, he uses it a lot to get out of tight situations.

[@7mlc]

Spot on mate, turns create a ton of space when done at the right time 👍

[@iansullivan8447]

[@7mlc]

You will know if you put in your best effort and showed your qualities. The rest is up to the opinion of the coach, as long as you took care of everything that was within your control, you should feel good about the experience.

[@iansullivan8447]

Alright thank you.

[@duncancrespin5765]

I'm just a center back learning the potential stuff used against me and studying on how to counter

[@nova5169]

CaptainREX Of the 501st tbh depending on what you play, he LB and RB will tend to have to deal with that when wingers start driving and try and whip a decent cross. As a RB, CM I think that a turn can also be used if pressure is used and you want to quickly turn away and pass it to your midfielders/ wingers

[@godza4735]

What to training when i go to the pitch? 5am go to training or 5pm when is better time to train invidually?

[@cr7_.motivation]

Godza whatever you prefer the most it doesnt matter 🆗️

There is no such thing as an ideal time. Anytime is a good time to train.

[@TheRazakhar]

[@DBZClears]

U should do defending drills

[@sharenrawat1016]

Yeah!!! Superb turning bro. But i cant turn with a good pace i become slow and lazy and defender overtakes me and my legs becomes exhaust. so what to do to improve this. Leg strength exercises or repetitions of agility drills or turning drills with or without the ball?

[@7mlc]

Repetition of these moves combined with agility work will strengthen up the muscles needed to turn sharply and over time your speed will increase 👍

[@sharenrawat1016]

Thanks bro now i add these turning reps with my agility sessions.

[@RHY7HM.]

Hey man, just a suggestion. You should have placed cones to act as a defender.

[@7mlc]

Turns are most effective when a defender is running alongside you. Unless you can tell me where to buy a moving cone, it just wouldn’t be effective. Thanks for the feedback though 👍
