I hope a segunda b team or a League one team can pick up Conor

[@cristianhaskel42]

nah, he should stay in sweden and get the chance to play for a 2nd tier team

[@vogel6345]

Love how you don’t always show the perfect side of a training session and that you show some slips when you fail a pass etc. It shows that everyone isn’t perfect

[@ConorOKeefe]

It's important to show what things are really like, and also to be positive towards mistakes. They are a great opportunity to help you to improve!

Thanks for this vid! I play for Ascoli calcio and ive had an amazing week of training thanks to your videos my strong foot is good with distribution still gotta get that left foot though. The problem im having is not enough height and im putting a lot of curve on it ans i dont know why.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks mate! Break down the technique, and practice over a shorter distance to get the correct technique first!

[@jonnyvallance5274]

Great vid Conor ! I think a distribution programme would be great for all GK union.

You're my inspiration mate. How do you cope up when you make mistake in game and with the criticisms

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks Arthur! Accept that mistakes happen, and that they are a great opportunity to learn and improve. Mid-game, reset and move on to the next action. Don't let one mistake become two by dwelling on it!

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you!

[@willponton7538]

Hey Conner loving the videos I know this comment is a year old so you probably won’t se it but I was just having a look at a few things that you could work on, when you are set ready to save the ball I noticed that your hands are by your side and they need to be informed so it gives you more time to get your hands up to make a save. Also I noticed that your bouncing when about to make a save your feet should be on the ground although on you tip toes. Hope that helped keep up the good work 💪🏻 🥅 ⚽ 🧤

[@silverstar7754]

Great episode!! Love your drills..certainly can use some of them! You should test yourself in the asian tropical weather..its a whole diff ball game! Stay well!

[@alexemerald5046]

Hello Conor! Amazing video as always. I'm a younger goalkeeper and I usually train a lot with my dad. We just do normal shots. But with my diving technique I always forget to attack the ball (Stepping forward when diving). Do you recommend doing some more advanced drills with cones etc, and are there any drills to specifically improve diving technique that you would recommend? Anyways thank you for the amazing video! Edit: As a younger goalkeeper do you recommend working on something specific or trying to get your technique as smooth as possible at all points of the game?

[@ConorOKeefe]

Hi Alex, yes, different drills will enable you to work of different types of dives! There are lots of training videos on my channel (just use the Goalkeeper Training playlist) and many other channels like ProGK Academy that should help! As a young keeper, you want to work on all areas of your game to keep improving! But it's never a bad thing if you have a couple of outstanding qualities that you keep working on!

[@alexemerald5046]

@@ConorOKeefe Thank you! :D

[@jerzyskoczylas554]

Conor I know you're now focused on playing in Sweden but you should consider playing in Poland in the future. Poland is in the middle of Europe, there live 40milion people, football is the most popular there (that shows that salaries are pretty high there). Of course, Swedish leagues are a bit better than Polish ones but that means that you have the chance to even play in the 1st division, that would be great for reputation but remember 2st division is also great for you, imo that would be a huge step in your career.

[@ConorOKeefe]

[@David-tc8dd]

Nice work! I remember hearing about goalkeepers like Schmeichel who used to be able to throw the ball incredibly far and this would sometimes be a substitute for kicking distribution, as he could do this with incredible distance yet still retain pinpoint accuracy with it. Do you recommend practicing throwing (long-distance/accuracy) as much as you do with kicks, could this be a part of your programme? Or would you say it’s not really as necessary to practice it equally with kicking in the modern game or whatever.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Yes, very important to keep practicing throwing! Will definitely make it part of the programme!
