Hi guys, here's my ultimate guide to becoming a more effective winger. I share a lot of useful information, so hopefully you stick around until the end of the video to really equip yourself with a better understanding of how to be a winger. Feel free to ask any questions below!

[@willardbrown2302]

most helpful video i've found so far. I always lose the ball when i'm one v one with the full back. Not anymore!

[@7mlc]

Willard Brown Thanks Willard, glad you found this helpful! Enjoy burning those defenders mate 👍👊

[@ascend4572]

7mlc are there any other ways to make a defender go flat footed? and how do i beat a patient defender that jockeys me ? thanks :)

[@ascend4572]

I want to know how to make them commit/dive in

[@hudheifa2404]

7mlc I can't look sides when a am having the ball how can I prove it

[@dunstanorchard]

I can't believe I'm actually leaving a youtube comment, but these videos you're making are wonderfully helpful, Michael. I'm 41 and though I've played football most of my life I never received any training, instead relying on speed and endurance and a general sense of sportiness to stay competitive. It's been obvious when playing against ex-US college players that I missed out on a huge amount of fundamentals as a kid, and your videos are not only helping fill in those blanks late in life, but are doing so in a friendly, non-dramatic, and time-efficient way. So, thank you again, and congratulations on all your success as a player and a youtuber. I'm sure you've worked incredibly hard to get so far in both areas.

[@7mlc]

Thanks so much for the positive feedback, I really appreciate it! I'm happy to hear you are getting some value out of my videos and I will be sure to continue passing on all that I've learnt and continue to learn through my journey as a player. Thank you once again for the kind words and wishing you many more enjoyable years of playing!

[@ryonanblitz2930]

hi im guessing you would of played a lot of football and u seem like a player who relied on speed so that would of meant u were really quick can u please message me on insta robert_yonan and give me some training drills to improve my speed

[@anonymousz7433]

Ryonan Blitz I'm sorry to say this but speed is something genetically from birth you either have it or not there isn't any specific or special training to become faster you can increase your speed like 3% but that's it it all comes down to your genes just work hard and you'll be satisfied with your self good luck! ;)

[@AStarForBants]

Quality video mate! I've been a winger all my Life, and I have never thought about it like this. But when you break it down like this, it's very easy to increase efficiency. Well done!! 👏👏

[@7mlc]

Happy to hear this helps you man! Thanks for the feedback I appreciate the poitivity.

[@bradyjohnson8955]

That's sad, if a basic 4-4-2 playstyle is new to you as a wing, cause that's all that's said in this

[@darraghmooney874]

As a player who's grown up as a striker and who has recently been playing on the wing this really helped

[@7mlc]

Hi Darragh, thanks for you comment man i'm really glad this video helped.I also made the same transition from striker to winger a few years ago, and I think you will really enjoy it. I much prefer playing facing the play than with my back to goal all of the time. I hope you enjoy it too!

[@khalifax5579]

Darragh Mooney same thing here

[@nikolakrmpotic6972]

Me to😂😂😂

[@akselkjelsmarkbattal5467]

If I get a professional contract (big chance ;) I would tell the interviewer about you promise. Great video:)

[@7mlc]

Haha that's kind of you to say mate!

[@unitedmg1171]

I’m going for an academy lcfc session wish me luck

[@sm-co1im]

RedDiamond RBLX 6 months later, how did it go?

[@elguapo3446]

The in-game examples really help to implement the trick into certain scenarios!

[@neliswamhlongo8857]

amazing . your videos helped me be the best soccer player in my school . my favourite position is right wing

[@alvarobeloso9075]

very great video with super infromaton. I really liked the effective dribbling moves you shared and it is helpful to see the game examples to see how well they work thank you very much for the video.

[@7mlc]

Thank you man, I appreciate the feedback. Glad you found it helpful.

[@mbappe7163]

Great Video! I love how unlike other channels you show actual in game footage of you doing the move! You just got a sub!😃

[@7mlc]

I appreciate that mate! Thanks for subscribing too.

[@ashishsamuel988]

yeah same here

[@yasmenerivera2807]

Love this video and how in depth you go. I really like how you use in game examples so we can see how to apply what you are saying to games. Best winger video out there!

[@7mlc]

Yasmene Rivera I really appreciate that feedback, thank you! I'm glad you found it helpful. Thanks again for the kind words.

[@caspercc865]

Guys you absolutely must watch this it is extremely detailed and engaging and walks you through with every step and gives you in game examples, WELL DONE!!!!!

[@7mlc]

Thanks so much mate!

[@midfieldmaestro2439]

7:00 Reaction from the defensive killed me😂😂

[@7mlc]

Haha I hope he has recovered by now!

[@maxinho1237]

just came across your channel, I'm a winger and this video (especially the dribblingin the last 3 minutes) watching the defenders body language was really intelligent and useful. thanks mate and all the best in your career!

[@7mlc]

I appreciate that mate! Thanks for checking out the channel, and I'm happy to hear that this video is useful for you. Keep working hard.

[@maxinho1237]

I also just watched your story video and wondered how you approached the situation of college in the US. what division did you play in? (p.s Im looking to do the same thing and have signed with an agency called soccerchanceusa who are helping me with the process)

[@evancorcoran3556]

These videos are exceptional. Very detailed and thoroughly explained with excellent step-by-step and in-game examples.

[@7mlc]

Really glad you enjoy them Evan!

[@IvanValchuk]

Thank you 7mlc I play as right wing for Force South and this tutorial helped me a lot an because of you I got way better . Thank you again

[@7mlc]

Really happy to hear than man! Keep it up.

[@rwhammac3626]

Well done mate! I've been coaching soccer for many years now and I still find your videos extremely helpful and useful! Cheers!

[@ghxzgbcxfhnnxgb6721]

he look like Denis Suarez

[@7mlc]

:D

[@clay4349]

ghxzgbcx fhnnxgb I know

[@abhishekpp7998]

yaya

[@thearsenalverdict]

Nah mate he's better than Denis suarez

[@simonsommerli8862]

I was grown up as a center midfielder, now i am a winger, this helped alot

[@bryansbeachtv9210]

You absolutely killed the video. Everything was well said and to the point

[@7mlc]

Thanks so much!

[@b6jackutv260]

another top video my friend i can tell you all as a keeper that has played with mike its been a pleasure to see all these things he has spoken about in games they work!!

[@7mlc]

Thanks Jack, I appreciate that mate! If you're ever in New York let me know!

[@b6jackutv260]

7mlc will hopefully be in the states november or december i will let you know buddy!

[@RunDatBaccTurbo110]

wow this is one of the best videos i've seen on youtube. you're very detailed about the responsibilities of a winger and the key attributes a player must have for the position :). you just earned a new subscriber and keep up the good work!

[@7mlc]

Xanny Evangelista Really appreciate the feedback, thank you!

[@JR-mk6ow]

3:30 most people use the inside of the foot because you can direct the ball to a side while receiving. Its also better to control the ball when running, in a game you will not be receiving the ball when standing still. It's very rare

[@7mlc]

I find the top of the foot more effective, even when running but that's my preference. Thanks for sharing your opinion.

[@CynthiaAondowase-jh8lr]

Wow I love this❤

[@bradhellier3741]

This video really helped me as I've just been moved from centre back to the left wing (unusual switch I know!) Learning to run at the defender made me far more effective and I even managed to grab two goals.

[@7mlc]

Great stuff Brad! Happy that this video helped in some way 👍

[@Feeeeeebs]

Best winger tutorial I've seen so far. thank you sooo much! ⚽🇵🇭

[@7mlc]

Happy to help Phoebe!

[@RohitMeena-nf3tz]

Thanx a lot mate ,i play as a left winger too and it helped me a lot . Wish i could have seen it much before .If you could come with some more videos about wing play their positioning during a gameplay, etc etc which may help me nurish my game as a left wing will be of much help .Moreover,your way of explaining is good and effective .Keep up the good work :D

[@AftabAli-rn2nq]

Sir you are my favorite mentor in soccer you help the people without any paying 🙏🙇thanks

[@JorgeMartinez-qt3kw]

Thank you very much for this video honestly! I play on the left wing and honestly I'm not as skillful, I play wing bc of the speed I posses and being good with crosses and having a power shot as well. Lately I been practicing the step and go and the croqueta as you showed in the video and I gotta say I am becoming more confident on implementing them now, also I am very glad that you showed to go AT the defender, I would usually commit the mistake of going for the space and run it, and then as he would come at me there was no much to create a play or cross so I would often lose the ball, I'm going to be replaying this video everyday, thank you very much again and keep up the great content and the great work sir!

[@7mlc]

Happy to help Jorge! Keep working hard, and all the best for your journey 👍

[@Alkaluus]

one of the best tutorial out here - Well done

[@romainhenrion6850]

[@7mlc]

Thanks so much David!

[@ale-vh4wb]

Honestly man idk how you not playing in the MLS you're better than a lot of the players I've seen there

[@7mlc]

I'm not sure about that mate, but thank you!

[@pablosilva7130]

Awesome video mate, i would run away from defender now with ur technique im gonna run toward em and look r that space...keep up good work

[@soccerstuff689]

Thanks for making this tutorial, I like to play a lot as a winger but never really knew how to get around defenders.

[@7mlc]

You're welcome mate, my pleasure. I hope this helps you in the future when playing on the wing. The key for beating defenders is keeping it simple, and being confident. Using small moves to unbalance your opponent then get away quickly.

[@PeetiBrooking]

Great video! I am a winger, sometimes CAM. Definitely be using those skills to get to out of tricky situations

[@7mlc]

Absolutely!

[@kwss9530]

Your the best soccer KZbin person you have made me improve so much thank you

[@7mlc]

Glad to hear it gives you more confidence, thanks man!

[@FutureFootballer10]

This is the first time I watch a video from your channel and you explained it so well that I've subscribed to your channel. I love this video it really helped me understand the performance of a winger, I'll be sure to practice this in training and perform it in games! Thanks a lot man! Keep it up, these videos are very helpful 🤙🏽

You're more than welcome man! Thanks for checking out my channel and I'm happy to hear you're finding it helpful.

[@lukegreenslade7821]

Really good video, I'm a winger and I've used some of these techniques this season and I'm the top goalscorer in the league, I'm playing in an under 15's league (year 10's) and I'm a year 9 so I should be playing in an under 14's league. Would recommend this greatly 💯💯⚽️

Amazing video probably the most helpful yet I didnt really think of these simple tricks im always doing complicated skill moves to juke the defender but these simple moves can be better because they wont expect it of me. I also like how you went step by step and inlcuded links for other parts thank you

[@7mlc]

You're more than welcome man, I'm happy to hear it was helpful and thanks for the feedback!

[@MrMrAzad]

great video and thanks for the info! This is the first video i watched on this channel and i sure will stick around for more videos ^^ one thing i noticed is u dont have a mic. i think it'd help a lot to get one because of the background noises and the volume is really low:D

[@7mlc]

Azad Alp Hi Azad, thanks for checking out my channel! I'm glad this video was helpful and I appreciate that you'll be sticking around. I definitely agree with you about the mic, I'm working on trying to get one to improve the audio of my videos. Thanks for the suggestion mate. Michael

Thank you Michael!

[@michaelkolawole6681]

No worries

[@hassansheraz67]

will u please make a tutorial about how to make yourself comfortable on the ball, and how to make yourself willing to recieve a ball. thank you

[@7mlc]

There's not really a video that can show you how to do that. That's something from inside of you that you need to work on. It sounds like you are lacking confidence. I can share some of my thoughts on improving confidence in a future video but It will be more of a conversation rather than any type of drill.

[@hassansheraz67]

thanks man, i really appreciate that you replied. I would like to know how u improved your confidence.

[@chientran7380]

This is a great video i am looking for
