[@Zuperdawg]

I like how this video focuses a lot on the mental side of being a goalkeeper. I absolutely love how they go over how being goalkeeper is just so lonely and encased to the keeper himself. As a keeper, every goal you let it, it just destroys you mentally because your mind goes over the situation again and again thinking of all the ways you could have blocked the ball. It's just such a mental position that many can't handle. So much respect to every single goalkeeper out there!

Being a goalie is all mental, confidence is key. The criticism gets me going, wants me to prove them wrong.

[@goblin4164]

I used to be a goalkeeper. I quit because our coach didn't play me and disrespected me. He told me I was too short, although the goalkeeper who usually played instead of me was only about 1-3 inches taller, and didn't even come to all training sessions. By then I was 14 years old, and it made me very depressed since I really wanted to play professional football as a goalkeeper, and I really felt I had a chance. But instead I got played with the 12 year olds, and performed very well, got praise from their coach (not mine, he didn't give a shit), I basically showed proof that I was good enough to play in the team. But I never got to for some reason, and I don't know why. That feeling of your dream slowly being crushed is truly horrible, so I quit because I didn't want to experience it anymore. I am quite lucky to have good grades, I couldn't imagine how I would have kept on going otherwise, knowing I might become nothing.

I’m not that great of a goalkeeper. And when I played with my high school team (I was the back-up), I was getting harsh criticism. It made me realize what it really meant to be a goalkeeper. Also, in my local rec league, I was widely hated. I would get bullied, I would be told that I’m weak and not good, I even had one player who spit on me. BUT, in all that, there is nothing more satisfying than shutting someone up than stopping a shot. That’s why I’m a goalie.

[@admontblanc]

@Witchytoe some managers just suck, one time I conceded a goal, a chip shot from midfield while I was too far ahead of the box, I got blinded by the lighting tracking back and missed the save. My coach was furious and told me "how are you gonna recover from that mistake now?". Truth is that was the last goal I conceded that match of a total of 2, for the rest of the match they weren't able to score again and were trashed 9-2 at their home field.

I've suffered from some rather dark depression and anxiety for around 10 years now and this documentary has helped me realize that it may have something to do with the mental abuse I got from my teammates and coaches as a goalie in high school. Regardless, I am immensely proud that I was the one to be put in goal and I think I might find an adult league and reprise my role

[@JohnDeCarteretElvis]

Hello there; I sure hope that you followed through with your thoughts. being a goalkeeper is touch in so many ways. When I was young I lost my nerve as a goalkeeper after coming off worst in a one to one. My first injury. It was during a training match during trails for the youth team of my island. It was one goalkeeper vs 3 forwards. So i was really up against it, but one on one was my speciality. I acted fast and got the ball, but I also got the foot that was meant to connect to the ball. I was severly winded and dropped the ball and the other team went on to score. I finished the game without any problems and it's from that point everything went wrong. The coaches decided that I'd fallen off the horse and had to get back on, so to speak. They took me into the gym and forced me to make one on one saves. This was completely unnatural to me and despite what had happened up until this point I'd not registered anything as being wrong. Instead this workout did the opposite and instilled fear into me, that hadn't been there before. Why the coaches felt the need to take such action, I don't know. I'd not exhibited any fear during the game after the accident, nothing was broken. I just had sever bruising of the ribs and got on with the game. Then the league team I was playing for made matters worse and that was the end of any dream that I had to play pro football. I kept on playing, but the fear was always there. I became depressed and became ever more depressed. I loved my football. I was only 14 at the time and it took 40 years before I regained my full confidence. Now at 61, forwards would rather give me the ball, than I come and get it! I now what depression is, I've lived with it for decades, but now I am able to cope with it for the most part, but where my football is concerned, I manage to leave it in the dressing room. So if you haven't, I encourage you to do so. And if you have, good for you. remember the ball has to get past the 10 players in front of you, before it can get past you. You're there to basically save their necks, they rely on you. You have to keep them in the game, without you the team doesn't stand a chance and they have to do their job in defending and in scoring! The Black Panther (Players started calling me this when I was 11 and playing senior football in the business league. I was 6'2" and they never realised how young I was.)

Really great piece of work. It's funny for me to see the connections between goalies in different sports. The position just attracts the crazy people whether it's Rene Higuita, Gilles Gratton the mad goalie adage rings true. There is something just inherently mad about wanting to stand in front of a powerful strike or a giant slapshot. Being a goalie is so much more on the mental side of things such as having irrational confidence in ones self or just trying to keep your mind sharp throughout the ebbs and flows of the game. Goalies are definitely one of the underappreciated positions in sports. I am actually surprised how they left out how important the goalie is in communicating to the team.

I used to be a really talented GK. Trained since I was in diapers. I used to love it. When I was 13, my school team and I went to a tournament in Minnesota. After 2 group games, we needed to win by 2 goals in the last game to advance to the next stage. We were winning the game 3-0, and I muffed an easy free kick, let it go through my gloves to the back of the net. It wasn't a problem because we were still winning by 2 goals, that is, until I mistimed a jump in a soft corner kick in the last minutes and I gave away another goal. We won the game 3-2 but didn't pass from the group because of the goal differential. I took a lot of shit from my teammates the entire rest of the trip. Returned home and never played football again.

This is the best thing that I've seen on youtube, ever. Thanks for making it. It's a big morale booster.

As ex keeper. I'm 60 now best piece of advice I EVER had from ex Bristol City keeper Mike Gibson when I was 17. Had a howler ???? LET IT GO.... dont dwell on it.. it'll kill ya.. Analyse it learn and move on....

[@shaheerirfan8099]

True

[@mikelarry1478]

As a keeper myself what motivated me the most is people criticizing me not seeing the good an the effort I put in ..I always fight it never quit an be a goalkeeper ...100 to all keepers all over the world

[@josemunoz9695]

I became a keeper because no-one else at my school wanted to play that position. After my first game, it was clear to me that not only did I really enjoy it, but I was also good at it. 13 years later and I still love putting my gloves on the ball

[@victoriacote3734]

Idk what it is about being a keeper but just the feeling of blocking an amazing shot that should have been a goal it’s amazing. Also the adrenaline you get from being a keeper. KEEPER UNION!

[@HamishNettleton]

Awesome video. Congrats on a great accomplishment!

[@FourFourTwo]

Thanks!

[@gelo5775]

Good luck to all the keepers trying out for a school team, a professional or college team. Prove your own worth you've got this!

[@sophiekirkley4398]

thankyou my friend

[@CNNRFIFA]

Brilliant video!

[@callumbishop1193]

Such a great video don't know how it doesn't have more views

[@ShaneJoshua1980]

I played in goal as a youth and I wish I'd had someone work on the mental side with me back in the 90s. The team I played in from 11 to 14 the manager swore like a trooper and spoke to you like you were a grown man. I made a mistake and remember him and my step dad laying into me. After that i'd be a nervous wreck most games worried about making a mistake. It took years to grow out of it. I loved when you had a match winning display though and pulled off a class save especially as most of the people I played against on Sunday I'd be at school with on Monday still praising me. It was my dream to be the first black goalkeeper to represent England but as I got older I fell out of love with the game.

This is an excellent documentary.

[@lonelyvirgo5374]

I remember being forced to be a gk when I was 7 because I was to fat and my agility is so low. After that, I bought my first glove and play the game and I am the goalkeeper ever since. Thanks god that happen. The feeling of being a guardian of the team and fix their mistake that they may cause really inspired me.I have all injuries that had happen. I dislocate my finger once because the opponent kick my hand instead of the ball in 1v1 situation, I twist my ankle really bad because of false landing, I got nut shot couple of times,... What I wanna say is that: Appreciate your goalkeeper. They have enough guts to tank tons of injuries and pain while being a goalkeeper while you sometimes being useless in the team. Good luck to all goalkeeper in the future :3

[@mggm5097]

I love this

[@simonk.4338]

Amazing video! I really enjoyed watching it.

[@FourFourTwo]

Glad to hear it.

[@benjaminfisher1565]

Goalkeepers are better represented today than in the past, but they easily have the most difficult job in the game. Normally I'm a field player, but I've played keeper in a few games before and I always express how much I dislike the position. It's just too hard and the pressure is difficult to cope with as well. This video is great in trying to see into the minds of goalkeepers. One of my best friends is our goalkeeper for highschool and I'll share this with him when I think he needs it.

[@redflash4783]

5:32 luckiest save i’ve ever seen ahaha

[@Octxbrr]

This is the greatest motivator for me to watch. Always makes me want to put on the gloves and go block some shots. Thank you for this video!

[@benthegamer9480]

Aight, I’m a 12 year old keeper, I can either have nothing to do and asking on of the supporters for their chair, or there are some games where the ball barely leaves my box unless I do a high punt into their half and I do most of the work, I definitely prefer the more action games (no extra points for guessing that)

[@eian_]

As a keeper, I love this, so good😍

[@maxbirnberg893]

I lived this type of stuff

[@jurassicworldmaster562]

Can relate to this 100 percent. Everything they mention was a part of my life growing up and playing as a goalkeeper. Just this weekend I had over 20 great save, gave two 80 yard passes that didn’t lead to goals due to the strikers completely missing and ended up loosing 3-2. Thought about quitting the team but this video has changed my mind.

[@Llama561]

I became a goalkeeper because no one else wanted to but I was the smallest in the team

[@jackrosende4676]

This totally speaks for how all goalkeepers act! I totally feel this too

[@sonnyfernando2136]

GK = Best Position 😎

[@thegreatest1176]

Love my GK at the back. As a defender, I get ecstatic when my gk makes those saves

[@G10-c7h]

I'm a a young keeper, 11 . But some of the pressure can get to your head .

[@nathandaunis6462]

Vest advice i cn give you is dont even worry about anything, block everything out, its you, your team , the other team and the ball, if you focus on those all pressure goes out the window
