Asking about a team mates football boots is a good conversation starter.

Confidence Tips:( in new team) 1. Greet everyone before training 2.stand up straight + eye contact 3. Start a casual conversation in locker room 4.hop straight into pre-training rondo 5.ask to join passing or two touch Before training session. 6. Confidently ask for the ball 7. Repeat same action after a mistake 8. Take feedback with confidence: Look in the eyes and say got it! 9. Dont be the first one off the field. 10. Start up a casual conversation after session. And the most important train more. More than everyone and you will be 100% confident player. Everyday become better than you was yesterday confidence will actualy come

[@hrishikeshsarma6012]

CANNOT emphasize enough how true this is. I'm someone that usually doesn't talk much but I'll walk into rondos knowing I got this shit. I got called out by a teammate in training for playing a risky backheel pass in defence. But it worked out. CONFIDENCE. I did the fancy stuff again. I had a good session. No one said a thing after I pulled off risky moves while it worked. They'd play the ball into me even when I demanded it in risky spots. I have the confidence to wriggle out. If I fail? I'll do it again, while obviously being aware and sensible. This is one thing you learn from players like Neymar. They'll lose the ball, come back up like nothing happened, win the game.

Soccer is simple, dudes who play scared simply don’t understand the game enough Confidence is the side effect of experience The most confident man in the world won’t be confident in a soccer game cause he doesn’t have experience

Ten minute Tuesday. Great topic and solid points

[@danfearon1343]

Matt, another great vid about a subject that is not spoken about enough. My young daughter who has exceptional skill struggles in this subject and we are working on bringing up the confidence quotient so thanks for posting this.

Everything you said is completely correct. Mentality>Skill

I love these 10 minute Tuesday’s

[@thesoccerlifestyle1449]

Matt I was at the Lou City vs FC Tulsa game on Saturday. I watched you a lot and I'm looking forward to your highlight tape because I know it was a difficult game for you and your team.

[@kysemajel2923]

I have a combine at the the end of this month. This helped a lot!!

[@CalvinFox31]

good luck man wishing you the best!

[@TheMontyMole]

This is some of the best advice not just for soccer.. but also for job interviews, making new friends etc.

[@elijahpressman5614]

dude matt, this is the one big thing a struggle with as a high school soccer player. This video helped out a ton thank you.

[@sammountain8760]

The mental side is the real area that’s holding back my progress. This video has been huge for me - thank you so much Matt ❤️

[@andreasfootball6285]

I understand exactly what your saying. I have that problem that when I mess up, I don’t want to make that mistake again so I maybe don’t show for the ball. But instead I should get on with it and try it again to further improve myself. Another great vid!

[@mkramos07]

Another accurate and amazing insight by Matt Sheldon keep on putting out bangers on and off the field mate!

[@Radley10]

Nice video👍 I’m 14 and my goal is to play professional at the highest level and I’ll definitely take this into action

[@ppsaneesh7225]

[@efrainautzbach1559]

Hey Matt, could you do a 2-min Tuesday on playing for a team with negatives teammates/coaches? How to deal with them? Especially if they are #1 in the state...

[@mikeyisme]

1000000% experience matters. i joined a new team w negative confidence examplng everything matt said been at the team for 3 years now I'm captain and playing with hella confidence and it wasn't as much getting better but the time. when u have confidence nothing is hard

[@JasonFam]

I literally just started training with my new team in Germany (I’m from the U.S) yesterday. This video couldn’t of come at a better time haha.

move on from mistakes, what a simple yet essential piece of advice

[@gemma_fitzpatrick27]

I can’t tell you how much I needed this 🙏 You should just call it ten minute Tuesday 😂

[@davidhill5988]

My dad always said, you have a free pass to be cocky on the pitch but as soon as you leave the pitch, you leave your cockiness there. He called it a light switch, you switch it on when you're playing and switch it off when you're done. That metaphor always stuck with me

[@kaelenmatascastillo3765]

Literally first day of college preseason is today and this video was already out and ready. Very helpful in my opinion, even as a goalkeeper, which tends to be a lonely position. Thank you!

[@FOOTBALL-clips7777]

self confidence is the most important thing in the pitch, and believe in skill do you have

[@soccerskillz7911]

thanks matt ive been struglling with confidence

[@Jalen_fut]

Today is my first day of training for my college team. There’s no coincidence that I stumbled on this video at this exact moment, hours before we get on the pitch. Thank you for a fantastic video. I’m definitely going to be way more confident and try and change my mentality. I’ve always been that kid who “goes back in there shell”, so I’m going to be more outgoing and use different body language to demand the ball. Great video again!

[@carsonstille3275]

Never have really had a problem playing with new people in tryouts, it’s the first few training sessions with the new team that’s a struggle with me, but this advice is very useful

[@ArturoGarcia-py2so]

Thanks Matt! I have trials for my high school team this week. I really needed this.

[@gustavburke162]

Bro I’m getting started too tomorrow! Apart from the fact that it’s not d1 or d2

[@luisgarcia373]

Mentally, I am as good as Ney. 😂😂😂 Train hard and do in the games what you practice. Learn from your mistakes. Record your games so you can watch the mistakes you make and work on those mistakes.

I'm currently studying sport performance psychology and what you're pointing to is both intuitive/clear and proven time and time again in the research. Thanks for taking the time to talk about the importance of the mental side of the game!

[@ulisesrodriguez1277]

Confidence is literally everything, I was probably one of the worse players in my high school team regarding with skill with the ball and so for the first 3 years I was never confident enough to ask because I felt like I would mess up, that would happen because I felt like imma mess up it made me mess up but then I started to think to myself that I shouldn’t care if I mess up in practice, that’s the point of practice, to work on your skills so it gave me the confidence that I shouldn’t care about messing up and led me to play better than ever even

[@LuisHernandez-fj9ru]

Very good advice! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to do these videos ! 💯🙌🏾

One of the best videos you’ve done tbh Only the conversation starters can be hard if you’re in central Europe and aren’t fluent in Polish 😂

[@christopherfowler1010]

Really needed this, Ive had a really rough time with trials and I have been leaving every trial knowing I am better and should have done better and I dont get on the teams ive wanted to and think i deserve to. I totally relate to shying away, I wont call for the ball, and when im on the ball i play too safe. I always try to move on from things in tryouts but its really hard those mistakes really eat at you if you let them, especially for me where i set pretty unrealistic standards for myself. But next trial I will make sure that when I make a mistake to move on like nothing happened and go to the next play.
