Paxten Aaronson vs FC Volendam

Just wanted to drop an update on how Paxten's loan is going.

Good place for Paxton to be at. Rough around the edges but he is not falling over, and you can see the soccer IQ. He just needs to continue to work.

[@stephenjeltema2323]

He is falling over and getting pushed around at the No.10. I disagree. Tough position to play as his speed and drive is crazy good, just like Brendan, but his strength is weak, just like Brendan. He is not the Loftus-Cheek type player that can withstand the pressure. Hope he improves or finds his mojo against the bigger types! Pulisic has had to adapt and often you see him get frustrated when he is easily pushed off the ball by a veteran.

@@stephenjeltema2323 Getting pushed off the ball yes, but I did not see him fall over like Brendan does. He certainly needs to gain some strength.

[@dripsonice413]

Hes definitely coming around nicely glad he went to eredivise very solid league to build your skills for young players.. to me it looks like he just needs to build some strength on the ball and maybe some quicker decision making but he's got the right ideas, for example he made the right decision on the pass to the corner when the winger was running more flat and got frustrated with him that was not Aaronsons fault it was the winger the winger should have ran more at an angle and one touched it into the box rather than trying to stall in the corner

[@david102991]

He needs to speed up his play, the next pass needs to be on his mind. But he looks good, fast twitch type player.

[@airsports2012]

looked good! thanks for posting

[@jasonmcduffie3186]

He already looks better than his older brother, albeit in a lesser league. I think what Oliver Ruhnert said about Brenden Aaronson applies to both brothers: “With Brenden it comes down to the fundamental theme. Brenden is a super footballer who must accept the fact that in football a certain physical aspect is needed to win the ball & contest challenges."

[@andrewbenson8842]

I like thay he tries stuff even if he looses the ball sometimes. Modern players play it safe too often and it makes for boring matches. He looked pretty good. The talent is there just needs more experience.

2:15 Bro so mad because he slow. My kids coulda got on the end of that...

[@SFMEDITS]

yeah idk who that dude is but he kept getting mad for the dumbest stuff and he was mid af lol

[@douglasharley2440]

reminds of of his brother, early doors at leeds...lots of running that _seems_ like it's going to lead to something, but never quite does. 😒

[@dh5363]

No goal contributions doesn't equate to unproductiveness. He seems a lot more in control and better awareness than Brenden. He's still young and in a brand new environment, can't judge the whole picture base on the little glimpse

[@rascality9714]

Brenden couldn't do half the things Pax does in this video so I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion.

[@Stonehombre1]

AND.... so what are we looking at? Don't see anything particularly special going on here....

[@dripsonice413]

Do you not understand football? This is a channel dedicated to the development of USMNT players and prospects he is a 20 yr old prospect playing in a very solid league and looked very sharp he is developing nicely not every game is gonna be just blasting rockets outside the 18 and megging 30 defenders, his first touch looked very sharp he made good decisions with the ball, made good threatening runs had a few shots nearly scored the ball created chances looked good

@@dripsonice413 YES, I understand football (soccer) and was probably playing BEFORE YOU WERE BORN !!! So stop with the smart ass remarks.
