9:19 striker usually get more appreciation if the team wins, but to build a winner team you need a squad of 25 players who fit in your team and they have to adapt with couple of systems

[@RuudVanDrijver]

Yeah, the strikers get all the attention, but a really good defender is gold dust as well as midfielders and wingers who can distribute the ball and make good crosses.

[@24magiccarrot]

The striker usually gets the attention cause they score the most goals but in general, it's the midfielders that are the best players on your team, it's slightly different now in that players are generally better all rounders but most of the ball is in the midfield so that's where you need your best players. The forward players that are considered great players are generally the ones that play deep during the build up play then get forward, players like Messi and Ronaldo are put on the team sheet as Forwards but really they are hybrid players, they sit deep and are involved in the build up play, where as the traditional number 9 striker will sit on the shoulder of the last defender and might barely get a kick the entire game if his team mates can't make chances.

[@RudyCantGame]

8:48 anyone can attack. The positioning is a shape teams keep. So the number can vary on the style the team plays.

[@abdorizk2108]

9:06 To answer your question, allow me to give you a few examples: - Fabio Canavaro, Paolo Maldini and Sergio Ramos played as defenders and are considered some of the best players of all time. - Philiip Lahm, Cafu, Franz Beckenbauer, Roberto Carlos, Eric Abidal.... played LB and RB and were the soul of there teams - Some Goalkeepers (not goalies :D) are legendary like Lev Yashin, Peter Schmeichel, Oliver Kahn, Manuel Neuer and Gianluigi Buffon to name a few were the reason their teams won major titles. - Lothar Matthaus, Andres Iniesta, Zineddine Zidane, Michel Platini and Pirlo were midfielders and are also some the best players of all time. - Fowards and Strikers, like Ronaldo Nazario, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Arjen Robben, Puskas, Pele, Marco Van Basten... The forwards and Strikers get the most recognition because they are the ones that usually score the most, but not all are amazing. The best example is Miroslav Klose, the German striker that currently holds the record for most goals scored in the FIFA World Cup (16 goals). He is a great finisher but is not very skilled compared to all the players mentioned above. TLDR, there is no "usual" position for the best players

[@CZTachyonsVN]

I'd also add Petr Cech to GK and Ronaldinho to the list of midfielders.

Sorry, but calling Klose a Finisher is an understatement. He was more than that. In his Prime he was a complete Striker. Scored many Assists for his Teammates, worked his ass of, you could see him on the wing, in the midfield to create space for his Teammates. I am agreeing with all you've said. I also think he is as good as the other guys you wrote, but just calling him a great finisher is wrong for me. That triggered me, sorry.

26:53 they won’t play at that age. They get signed as scholars and get educated and trained through the team’s academy system until they come of age. They still go to school (sometimes live with a foster family if they’ve left home) and don’t get paid. They’re not pros yet. If they’re good enough they’ll sign and professional contract (at around 16/17 years old) and start to play for the senior team when they reach their late teens or early adulthood. If not they’ll be sold or released and have to find a new club.

[@HH-hd7nd]

[@iliyapourmohammad]

23:14 I’ve just discovered your channel so although Im late i hope you read this. there has been a few teams who have done this. 7 to be exact. the most recent one is Manchester City last season. but the most legendary one is FC Barcelona and ajax. they had the most goals scored and least conceded (which means least goals scored against) but ajax did it in the seventies so no one really talks about it. but Barcelona did it in 2009 and 2015. the FC Barcelona 2008/2009 seasons is the most remembered season by a team (in sports in general!) because as person who saw 5 out of these 7 teams (who won 3 trophies) it wasn’t easy for anyone of them. but barca in 2009 swept every team they faced. they also had the most staked team ever. and they didn’t only win 3 in that season but they won 4! and if you count the first half if the next season they won 6 in 2009 alone! (and this iconic team is also remembered for the birth of a lot of important players and tactics in football. like messi showing himself to the world for the first time. the birth of the tiki taka tactic which is beautiful short passes leading into amazing team goals. and also it was the birth of the false 9 position, which you should react to it alone.) and to put it shortly the 2015 Barcelona team is mostly remembered for their attacking trio. messi Suarez neymar. they did a lot of iconic things together. one of them includes winning 3 trophies in a season and 5 in a year.

26:44 at 8-10 years old is not a professional league. you can think of it like football schools own by clubs. most of the big team in europe(especially in premier league level) have their own youth academy. to produce their own talents. they feed them with professional food. teach them with professional coach. send them to school until high school. after they are 16-18 years old sign them or sell them to smaller team to get a chance to play more (if the first team don't need them). and all of this they have to left their own home to live in the club. the law state that they can't sign a pro contract until 17 years old. before that they can only play on youth team or play in youth team contract only. example: player A is 16 years old but he has skill and talent in professional level. the first team coach want him to play on professional league. the coach can call him to his squad. but he can't sign the professional contract yet. so he can only play on youth contract(less salary and bonus). but the team can trade player A as well. but trading fee is not much. so most of these teams prefer to wait he turn 17 and sign him with pro contract then trade him out.

Saying there are no play-offs is a bit misleading. The Premiership winner is the team that comes top after 38 matches, that’s true, but the top four go into the Chamions League and 5th and 6th go into the Europa League which is kind of like a play-off to find the European champion. In the Chmpionship, League 1, League 2, National League etc, they have Promotion Play-Offs. In League 2 where my team is, the top three at the end of the season get automatic promotion, but 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th go into the play-offs in a knock-out phase with the two winners playing a final at Wembley Stadium for the last promotion spot.

About discovering young talent: This system incentivizes clubs to not only discover talent, but to build that player up for a decades-long carreer, starting as a kid.

React to "loudest chants in football with lyrics" it's a compilation of some of the best fans in football from Europe, South America, Asia and Africa. As someone who watches both the NBA and football I can tell you the main difference between the two sports is the passion and emotion, you can't understand unless you experience it but looking at the fans will definitely give you a better understanding. If you want to experience the emotions first hand the 2026 world cup is in the US and world cups are very special as they only happen every 4 years and are the biggest events in Sports with more viewers than the Olympic games, it's the most anticipated and important tournament in football. The US national team actually has a "golden generation" rn, they've never been this good and most of their key players are very young, they're still some way from being contenders but the 2026 US team will be by far the best one they ever had on paper so maybe following them a bit could help you get hyped for the world cup. This summer the Copa America will also be in the US which is like a mini world cup for South- and North American teams only, the US has never won it so far because Brazil and Argentina are also in it but I'm excited to see the young US team compete against elite teams and maybe they can even get to the semi-final or final

About these national cup games, smaller teams beating bigger teams. Just this very season, in the DFB-Pokal in Germany, 3rd league side Saarbrücken beat a 1st league team 3 times in a row. First they beat Bayern München (the richest german club and the most successful in german football history) in the second round, then Frankfurt in the round of 16, and then Mönchengladbach in the quarter final. So that's a 3rd tier team beating three 1st tier teams back to back. They eventually lost in the semi final to Kaiserslautern, which itself is a tier 2 team. So Kaiserslautern is now a tier 2 team in this years german cup final, so we might theoretically have a non top league team win the cup this year. However, their opponent is Leverkusen, who is already confirmed to win this years 1st league title, playing their best ever season. So it will be tough ^^

[@deadend2023]

The youth are not professional players. But if they noticed a kid that has talents, the bring them to club academy to prepare them for potential joining the club in the future. Most of big clubs they have own academy. Teams from academy go around the globe and do training camps, where parents or smaller clubs bring their kids to show their talents.

Kids can't play in the professional leagues, but they can be signed to to football academies owned by the clubs. This way the club can mold the young players into the type of playing style predominant in the professional leagues. I belive the minium age to make a debut on the senior team is 16-17 years.

[@fernandafernandes6362]

I'm just comparing it with a country similar in size to the US: Brazil. Here, there are 850 professional teams and 426 amateur teams. About the championships and comparing with the video... Premiere League = Campeonato Brasileiro (Série A, B, C and D; under 20; under 17 for men and Feminino A1, A2, A3; under 20; under 17 for women ). Carabao Cup + FA Cup = Copa do Brasil. UEFA Champions League = Conmbel Libertadores. In addition to them there are Copa do Nordeste with all the staste of Northeast, Copa Verde with the states of North, Central-West and the state of Espírito Santo. Finally, each of Brazil's 27 states has its own state championship.

[@kentgrady9226]

Think of defenders (in this example, the back four field players, excluding the goalkeeper) as the defensive backfield in American football. The fullbacks are roughly equivalent to cornerbacks. They are generally shorter, smaller, and quicker. Center backs (sometimes called "center halves) are more like safeties. They are generally taller, bigger, more physical, and a step slower. They also tend to remain farther back when their team is attacking. It's not a perfect comparison, as the sport is two-way, meaning that everyone attacks and defends at least to some degree. When a team has a free kick or corner kick deep in the attacking zone, center backs may push up to receive passes in front of the opposition goal in order to receive high passes (typically called "service" or "crosses"). Likewise, attacking players are often expected to defend or press from the front when the opposing defenders take possession in their own half of the pitch. This does a couple of important things. First, it delays the opposing attack and gives defenders a chance to set up. Second, it tends to create mistakes - sloppy passes and other types of errant play. When that happens, a team can benefit from an easy chance to score. Tottenham Hotspur under Ange Postecoglou is one club that relies heavily upon high pressing (similar to a basketball full court press) and committing heavily to the attack with fullbacks pushing aggressively from multiple angles. The disadvantage to such a philosophy is vulnerability to counter attack. For example, Tottenham recently beat a very good team on the road, 4-nil. They turned around and lost the very next match to a lesser team 3-nil.

[@milosstefanovic6603]

Best player can be at any position, have you ever heard the name Roberto Carlos, he played LB or Andrea Pirlo ( DMF ) or Maradona (AMF-SS ( Second striker)) or Messi (RW). Best players are not fixed on one position

[@Jay-xw9ll]

Pretty much all your instincts about the game were spot on, strikers are generally considered the best as they score the most goals, which is the whole point of football. Also I loved your comment about clubs signing 8 year olds "So the family can get paid".

[@IshavedChewbacca]

to answer your question, there´s not a one size fits all for the best players, it´s more like what skills/physical attributes qualify you to each position. As a general rule, keepers are tall af and gotta have cat reflexes and athleticism, nowadays they gotta have some footwork too. CBs are tall and strong in order to be able to fight for these high crosses, they gotta be intelligent in their positioning and have perfect coordination between themselves. Fullbacks are generally light and speedy and are often not that physically impressive, but are more attack oriented than CBs. Wingers share most of these traits (some fullbacks can be played as wingers too), but are generally more physically impressive. Midfielders are generally more tactical than physical, they have to be able to read the game and pass into spaces, thus transitioning from defense to attack quickly. And the striker is usually either an absolute unit to break through the defense with raw strenght, or be skilled enough to dribble past them, or be tactically intelligent enough to position himself for receiving a pass and tap it into the net.

Winning the quadruple is extremely difficult. You basically need to have an amazing first choice team, and then your second choice back up team is also amazing whose players could play for any team in the world. The Barcelona team that won 6 trophies in one season had a ridiculously good subs bench and second team. Hence only the biggest most prestigious teams can do it. You have to have deep enough pockets to have all these amazing players, and you have to be prestigious enough that top top players are prepared to be in the second choice team and still stay. Example: Barcelona was so good that Thierry Henry was basically a super-sub there, he wasnt first choice and he accepted it because it was Barcelona, it's a special club.

I mean, playing in the 5th tier of England(national league) still earns you a decent wage. There are a few professional teams there. 1k-3k/week before bonuses. That's not supported by "just their mom." Audience is 1k-8k. And yes, you can create your own club, get your own players, and begin climbing that pyramid. I suggest you watch the story of FC Wimbedon here on youtube. Basically their team got highjacked by an American(only an American would think it's a good idea to move a team). The fans began their own team. This year they're both in league 2. The 4th division. But the fan owned club had to begin from the bottom and work their way up over many years of course. Their first team at the start was basically facebook callouts and doing try outs. The reason the contracts work like that in soccer is very simple. I don't think NFL contracts would fly under EU law. Player has final say. I play a football manager game. Sold a player for big money, rubbing my hands to spend it to buy other players. Already negotiated contracts. Player says no to the contract the team I sold him to offers him. Players stay. No money for me. Players have final say. Always.

That's happens because Premier League is not the First Division of English football. Before 1992 the Premier League did not exist. In 1992 the 22 First Division teams broke away from the English Football League founding the Premier League. So the Premier League is not a tournament of the English Football League. The Championship is the highest division of the English Football League, the Premier League is above the first. When the Premier League was born the second division became First Division, and the third division became the Second Division. Then the First Division changed its name into Championship. And without First Division there was no sense in maintening the name Second Division, so they changed name into League One.

no he's wrong on a lot, there is lots of running off the ball, the player with the ball may pause but players off the ball will be running into different positions trying to change shape of the teams and create openings, football rarely stops. the game is played at speed, lots of forwards are professional sprinter speed at running. in an average top level game a player uses the same energy as a half marathon runner. not flat running like a marathon runner, but sprinting, jumping, burst energy like a circuit trainer. there is no best position. each is specialised. some of the greatest players ever can be found in all positions.

Years ago I was watching a MLS game shortly, and during a corner kick, a car commercial came by for, 2 seconds. Who does this, really. I want to see the corner being set up, not a car commercial. At halftime they can go crazy for 15 minutes.

They recently changed the sub count to 5 BTW

[@askesismusic]

Avoid the rabbit hole of "GOAT" vids. Not the best way to learn about football to watch Ronaldo/Messi comparisons. I suggest you look at - the ultras (atmosphere) - big players of different positions (not just attacking players) - tactical videos - full matches

To my knowledge no team in England has ever won all 4 cups in one season

[@matthewdearsley123]

love the ambition but you'd need a stadium, a pitch and planning permission to locate somewhere first

[@barryschalkwijk9388]

There is no best position. You want someone skilled on all positions to win games.

Borussia dortmund have now a bureau in New York since last week

[@Freehardy]

it's now 5 subs

[@rbohYSL]

"what are the best positions. what positions do the best players play" ... my guy, this is a completely irrelevant question. there are 'best players' in all positions. no one, that is passionate about football, tries to get a certain position unless their skill are perfect for that position. the best players in the world, are from all different positions.

Watch 'welcome to wrexham'

[@kaiphoenix1109]

You get 5 sups in a game know

[@afonsohenrique1941]

I highly recommend watching the video "Lionel Messi - The GOAT" to know the best player oat in football

[@drigerdranzer7514]

And after that watching Ronaldinho footballs biggest entertainment to see Messis mentor that made him great.

[@quandaledinglenut4]

He isnt the best tho

[@FixTheLanes]

I highly recommend you ignore this comment and understand the game. There's many channels such as football meta and football made simple who will give you a true understanding

[@afonsohenrique1941]

Messi hater at its peak@@FixTheLanes

[@p90bridge]

Propaganda. There are way better videos of Messi.

[@Touchpadse]

Haha no offence but most pro players would laugh at you if you only offered them 2m dollars. There's quite a lot of money in this sport ;)

Only thing he left out .. the top 4 teams of each leagues qualify for the Champions League .. 5th team qualifies for Europa League ... and through out the season there are International breaks where the best players return to their home countries to play in Qualifies or Friendlies to make it to the next World Cup .. A football academy is a training scheme in which professional football clubs scout young football players and help them progress and develop into footballers. Beyond developing technical skills and tactical understanding, they offer an opportunity to compete against peers of similar abilities. ... The FA this season nearly had a big upset with Coventry City F.C (who plays in Championship). got beaten by Manchester United on penalties .. But in final Manchester United upset Manchester City {Exciting Year] kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYitqnWppdCNqa8si=ypsewQVJh6GkALhl
