The 2023 Offseason Series - Ep. 1

[@BecomeElite]

I forgot to mention the Continuous Q+A! Ask any questions below and I’ll pick one of them to answer in the next Offseason Vlog 🙌🏼

[@hamidbabaali10]

Does having a child now affect your decision-making in terms of opportunities for the upcoming season? If so, how does it change?

[@Ooooo..o]

Is there an age limit to applying for open tryouts? I saw Hartford Athletic has a tryout in December and I want to try. Nice coincidence that Conor got in through an open tryout as well

[@kalzangbhutia2474]

What aspects of your life outside of football have played a significant role in shaping your career, and what are your long-term plans and goals, both within and beyond the world of football?

[@Blookdyxlovers]

he already respond to this on one of his video, watch matche, take one of a player that you want to analyse and question everything about his play, watch him with and wihout the ball and also you can also just watch the player and not analyse everything and still learn, that what i did and i am surely higly iq@VisheshRajput-cl9nu

[@firecracker4086]

do u know how i can go from a bad club to a good club without having any contacts?

[@deadpixelgaming6044]

Tore my ACL in October, had reconstruction surgery ~5 1/2 weeks ago. 8-9 month estimated recovery time before I can start playing again. Living vicariously through these videos. Can't wait to get out on the field again.

[@pringoz7694]

Good luck bro, stay strong 💪🏽

[@Avlejandro999]

Tore mine back in march you’ll be good bro keep going 💪

[@98hans98]

Had surgery on mine in March. Be patient and keep grinding!

[@Tarikconteh]

All the best with recovery bro! I did the same and documented my journey so take a look if you’d like 🙌

[@sarahheggie4501]

Good luck!

Just saw that yesterday Connor got signed to the new Rhode Island FC. Congrats to him!

[@S0LAS]

We'll miss him in Hartford 😢

[@certinho76]

Ahh, Connecticut. My old home state. I hope you get your contract renewed for Hartford Athletic. I'd love to see you playing in the Green and Blue again Matt. You're the kind of professional that we need.

[@branflakes496]

As a former collegiate athlete who has also dealt with the same exact type of proximal hamstring tendinopathy/tendinosis (and have recovered fully). Strengthen, strengthen, strengthen and progressively overload. I dealt with/played through that injury for about 2 seasons!! Super frustrating type of injury.

[@adampoledno4311]

Thanks for putting out clean and helpful content. This is so useful for me with my son.

[@labil-l5h]

matt your technique is awesome mate

[@sabirelk]

Finally bro, missed it, ready to be a sponge and implement it into my own channel, training and life

[@klinktastic]

I have been organizing weekend scrimmages for my son and kids his age for the off-season before it gets too cold here in Illinois. Usually a bit of warmup, skills, then scrimmage.

[@carnagexp3054]

keep posting man love watching you play

[@paulkim2944]

Union fan, cool to see Jacks brother on the videos!!

[@irishgolfkidt]

Please make a video on how to improve your touch

[@Thecarspotters_]

Matt its just that your playing it safe 😅 if you try to risk and start focusing on assists and goals you will find it easier to score. For example your on their half of side you can choose to give it to the Left wing, but instead you should drive in and risk it something and try to score a goal dribble your way through.

[@tcolina3241]

Come through New Haven, we'd luv to have you!

[@Kakan_kakisvic]

Good video Matt! My dream is to become a professional footballer, but right now i dont have any club at all.

[@Monaleenian]

When I played soccer as a child there were only grass pitches available, and fairly poorly maintained grass pitches at that. I used to absolutely hate the way that the ball would just jump and bobble around the way that it did in this video. It was only when artificial grass pitches became more widely available, firstly as small, 5-a-side-type pitches and later full-sized pitches, that I felt that soccer really became a game of skill. It was often just a game of sheer effort on the old, bobbly grass pitches.

[@shantiescovedo4361]

It just took a lot more skill back then. :)

[@theindianwall29]

Full body workout pls

[@imrealimrealyrealyreal4474]

Hey Matt. Wanted to ask, how often do you hear about players being recruited from USL open tryouts?

[@davy3415]

14:20 👌

[@soundlysouth2962]

Melted ice cream is the ONLY way to partake

[@tanakaff8184]

[@shantiescovedo4361]

Matt - Q&A. Favorite balls? I remember you had a bag of Nikes and now you have Select balls. Do most USL players use Select balls because it is the official USL match ball?

[@user-ahmedb2023]

Matt please we need a full free program for 60 days

James milner is the reason why i never quit

[@irongolem10-0]

Hi Matt I want to ask you a question. I'm saving up my money to buy minigoals and a rebound board, because theres not lots of walls around my place. Do you think thats a good investment in football equipment

[@aaronkaplan6441]

DO you do plyometrics as part of off season? if so how often? i've heard 2-3x max per week... would love your thoughts esp in light of the training you already do...

Get some kind of silicone spoon for that ice cream

[@asg-emperor]

I was 3h late to the vedio 😢

[@alzsinatra]

what’s exit physicals anyone? we don’t call whatever that is in England so idk

[@BecomeElite]

An exit physical is where the club evaluates you to make sure you’ve recovered from all injuries you might’ve sustained during the season. Liability stuff for the club and for the players.

[@davep4240]

So are you staying with the club? I really hope you stay Matt. The Hartford Faithful want you to stay.
