GALATASARAY 11-12-2000, 09:50:PM PhiLLer:
nice topic man
i play left wing or right wing. i am a right footed shot but i can cross well with my left.
i have alot of speed, especially with the ball. I have broken my school record in canada scoring 16 goals in 4 games. I was very close to start with galatasaray when i was 16 years of age, believe me or not, but i had family problems at the time and did not participate.
to bad.
schmeichel01 11-12-2000, 09:59:PM I am a goalkeeper, forever now on.
But initially I was a striker, but because of my size, and extreme agility, I have converted.
I am playing for a youth team in the english conference (woking FC). And am hoping to go further in the game.
I am 6 foot 1 145 pounds and 15 years old.
------------------
"...oh look the big goalie is coming up..."
I am a goalkeeper right now, but I also have played Central defense and Midfielder in the center, I'm right footed shot, but can pass or shot well wiht the left too.
I play indoor soccer too playing in the net, as a goalkeeper because 2 years and a half ago I broke my tibia and peronee, and right now I have a plaque and 8 nails in my right leg, but I start playing 8 months after the accident, I think I will get the nails and the plaque removed soon!!
Good by air and dribbling as a keeper and as a field player!!
Chris16 12-12-2000, 12:01:AM I am a Right Wing back. I am very good at defense, but to short to play as a Center Back. I haev ALOT of speed so I am used on the wings alot (I play in a league). My crossing is ok, my dribbleing is very good actually, and my shot leaves something to be desired...lol
So far this year my team has played 7 games (3 wins,3 draws, 1 loss) And I have 1 goal.
Neutral 12-12-2000, 12:06:AM schmeichel01,
Good luck to you son, work hard - hopefully you'll make it, but make sure you keep up with school though!
Jesus, 15 years old and you're hell of a lot taller than me! 145 pounds though - I think you need to eat a bit more!

"...oh look the big goalie is coming up..."
I don't play anymore, but when i did I was center defence FOR EVERY GAME OF MY LIFE. My specialty was my ability to kick the ball very far with acuracy, i would take over 80% of the corner/free kicks for my team.
SCTW www.fifa2002.gq.nu (http://www.fifa2002.gq.nu)
Well, I play centre midfield. Initially I started as Left Defence. Right now I participate in an indoor face paced game, on a hockey like field, and it is high scoring. Let's see. I am weak on the right foot, I need to work on that (Although I can use it to play keepie-up). My left foot, at least everyone says, has a lot of power for my size. And my accuracy if is most of the time in game on target (Practices I am not as good at it, I have no idea why). Once again, for my size I can usually target my headers to the correct spot or deflect them. One touches are good decent with left, as I said, weak with right. My agility is good (Coming with size). Ball Control should be worked on, I am to nervous to use the moves I know in the game - either it will make me look stupid or good - I don't want to make myself look stupid. I am told a physical player, knocking those who are larger then me to the ground. And them getting the foul (haha). I am a good defender on a regular field, but not indoor because I am not used to the option to hit it off the wall. I play Premiere U16 (Highest US Youth skill levels, and I play a year or two older then me). I am 119 pds (54kg), 15 years old, and 5'7 (1.7 m) (I haven't checked for a few months.
I know I have a lot of things I need to improve on, but I feel good about my abilities at my size and age.

wakzool 12-12-2000, 06:22:AM I play on the wings, whether it's right or left and sometimes as a playmaker. i have only played 6 games with my team but i have scored 4 goals. i think my specialities are my passing and dribbling skills...
rumanu 12-12-2000, 06:31:AM I play right back but I used to play left back. I haven't played for five months though. I'm playing cricket right now since it's summer in Australia.

Juenne d'Amerique! Playmakers rule. Me and Shamir. The same team someday. http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
Srbenda 12-12-2000, 06:54:AM I play striker mainly because of my height, 6'4 at age 17. Because of my height, I am not that fast nor do I have great technical skills, but I am very strong and great at headers(how i mainly score). I usually take the free kicks inside 20 meters and the pk's for my teams. I can shoot with either my left foot or right foot but I am better with my right, I can cross with both..

JARDEL9 12-12-2000, 07:43:AM i can play left back centre back or right back doesnt really matter i am very very aggressive when i played on my school team for 13 games i had i think 10 yellow cards and 2 reds lol basically every game. i can play right or center forward as well but im better in defence. i also playe goalie and im very nice at goalie i play forward only for the fun of it never offficially. but keeper and defence is my strong points.i never want to be the organizer of the game its just too confusing
-------------
JARDEL kafa ve gooooooool!!!
Annobis 12-12-2000, 09:12:AM I play any position. I prefer Center Mid or sweeper. I play very well with both feet and have good and somewhat accurate shots with both. Specialty...free kciks, corner kicks and long range shots. I'm TERRIBLE in the air. I play well on the wings (best at left wing)
Ruben Sosa 12-12-2000, 09:19:AM I play either, Central Midfield or Striker, my especiality is Free Kicks, I have Exelent Accuracy and Shoot Power. My Driviling is addecuate, do I need to work with it. I'm not very good in headers (I'm not very tall). My speed is Ok, I can keep up with most of the team. I tend to foul alot...
gaucho 12-12-2000, 09:27:AM 4-15 years: GK
Played one tournament in a regional team(senior squad) in Patagonia, Argentina.
I started the last 3 games with 4 goals allowed.
Afterwards I moved to Buenos Aires and I left practicing coz of studies.
Anyway I take a proof in Racing Club and I was accepted as Centre Defense, (I didnt want to play at goalie again, too boring)
But played only 2 games before school started. Didnt socre any official goals but I managed to score 5 goals heading in only one practice
Actually i finished high school playing in an interschool tournament as captain of my team. Couldnt play the last 2 games coz the whole team got suspended.(err..that's another story)
Bio:
Position: Centre Defence
Height/Weight: 1,90m (6'3) 80kilos (180 or so)
Pros:Anticipation(Reaction), Jumping/Heading, One on One defence, Ball control, passing.
Downs: Pace speed
Team 17 13-12-2000, 06:16:AM I can play left back, left wing-back, left and center midfield.
I can use either foot, right is my natural side but i have practiced and made my left foot my best for shooting/passing and use my right for close control,
I dont head the ball much, but ppl say i should because im 6ft tall.
I can take good curling corners and free kicks with either foot.
I have a very hard (and sometimes fair) tackle, and i can shoot the ball damn hard.
Also i can run very fast with or without the ball, but i dont like dribbling to much - i prefer a beauty of a free-kick..
so thats me as a player, pretty much like you phil, as i said before.

TheDUB 15-12-2000, 10:27:AM Well, I see no one has the versatility I have...
hehe
So far, I've played in every single position except LB, and have managed to play well, though at the moment, my best position is central midfield. I've been likened to Steven Gerrard, mainly cos I'm a playmaker that tackles a lot - box to box really, but with a good touch.
I'm almost 6ft (180ish cm), 125lbs (about 60 kg), VERY lanky...but i have surprisngly good stamina, and can use either foot, powerfully and accurately, and ive scored a lot of goals from CM (4 in 6 games).
My best goal this season so far has been a curled lob from about 20 yards, with my weaker left foot that looped over the keeper and went in off the post.
I also take corners, and come second in terms of taking free kicks.
And when I come back from Singapore, I hope to try out for Liverpool...difficult, yes, but aim for the stars... http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/wink.gif
I'm also very pacy, and spent two years break away from footy playing rugby...heh

HAGI 10 15-12-2000, 04:20:PM I play in sweeper or centre back, but i'm best in sweeper position because my positioning is really great! I can make accurate long passes and shoot from distance with my right foot. The worst I can do is dribbling except free spaces on my front. I'm 6 feet 2". My acceleration is not bright but I can run really fast if I warm up and my stamina is good I don't get tired of running too much.
Right defensive/attacking midfielder. And don't say that an attacking midfielfer does the same as a defending one - It's 2 different positions.
Special Abilities?
Well, I used to be able to do amazing right-foot-curler Beckham style free kicks, but now I can't do them as well.(must be out of practice http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
My technique was to kind of cut across the ball as I hit it - it's hard to explain.
And my other ability (much to the annoyance of other players) is that I constantly slide tackle (quite violently, at times) until I win the ball - It's just like they do in FIFA, but I haven't got that kind of energy so I stop after five or six times.
mcfish 15-12-2000, 11:21:PM i play wing midfielder.
my specialties are corners, freekicks and shooting. I am a good defender and a pretty good dribbler. I am good with the ball in the air and a good passer. I am 5' 8" and 135 pounds. I can pretty much run anybody down.
I was a GK in indoor football team, rather good because of small goals http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
In outdoor i was a sweeper because of good positioning and excellent long pass.
Unfortunately this year (my last year at school) we were disqualified because of medical problems http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/frown.gif
But in 3 matchs i scored one goal (3 assist)and we won twice.
I'm good on the right foot, but my left is only for running. I'm rather tall for heading (185 cm). The accuracy is very good with a normal power, but i hate free kicks and penalties (i don't know why but i can shot good only the moving ball).

Zambrotta 16-12-2000, 12:12:AM When small I tried to model my game after Roberto Donadoni, but with time I spent less up front than in the middle or defending.
4 years ago I went really into it and developped into a good center-midfielder who always prefered to go right than left and to pass the ball.
However 3 years ago, at the peak (...) I moved and did not play until 1 month ago (comeback was pretty o.k., but that over-weight...), so now I plan to go running and then I hopefully will be real back.
I prefer playing 5 on 5 (with goalie) since I have a hard time finding coordination and timing on the full-sized pitch.
My ups are (usually) good vision, passing and solid defense, while I can't head the ball nor do anything besides standing with my left foot.
Dribbling and shooting are o.k.
red_shift 16-12-2000, 02:23:AM I am a left midfielder. Although I am not so fast and strong, my technique is very good. I can organise my team's play very well and I'm able to do some beautiful solo actions. Also, I score quite easily. My record is 4 goals in a game. Unfortunately I stopped playing football one year ago because of my studies in the university.
Thanking you for your time!!! ;-)
Fotbalguy 16-12-2000, 05:04:AM I play Striker or HalfBack and I have a lot of speed. I have good dribbling skill and fair shots but I have to work just a little bit on my crossing. I played school ball last month and we ended like 9-2-1. I scored a hat trcik in one game but I only had a total of 6 goals to me getting stiches in my knee( http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/frown.gif).Does anyone play football for the junior side of any known club here?
Canoe 16-12-2000, 06:18:AM Huh, quite a lot of specialists around, but no one has my special capabilities.
I currently play Keeper for my club, although bout 4 years ago I was a thriving AMC/forward. Then injury struck me hard, came back just to be injured again, so I had to make the move to goalie.
I'm 1.85m, 85kg, and my specialities are :
1 - Giving my coach nightmares and stomach ulcers cause I refuse to stop the ball he wants it stopped( with my hands ! ). Also my little Barthez like darts out of the box has him pulling his hair out.
2 - Ability to get injured without being involved in play. ( Eg, I pulled a back muscle (one cold winter's day)when I reached over to grab a drink of water and to dry my gloves )
Personal bests - scored 2 goals in one game about five months ago ( okay, so they brought on the sub goalie as we were leading 3-0 already, and I moved to attack, but still )
Worst record - Conceded 8 goals in one game, I'd rather not talk about it.
Gunner 18-12-2000, 04:24:PM Yes; I play in the Arsenal FC Youth Academy in the summer and they have told me that I have potential but that I need to work on some areas like upper body strength and awareness, in particular tho they want my stamina to improve cos I run around a lot and get knackered real quick.
Currently, I play at Leftback/Leftwingback/Leftwinger but I can also play in CentralDefence, Rightback, Rightwing, and in the hole behing front 2.
If I was string enuff and had enuff stamina, they would play me in midfield though, because my tackling and distribution are quite good.
My speciality, though, is simply PACE.
I am the fastest player in the entire youth set-up over 10 yards and that's why I'm mainly played out wide.
I'm getting kind of old now though (15) so I doubt I'll ever make the grade for a top team like AFC anyway cos foreigners and that.
Still, there's always a chance!

Arsenal FC 19-12-2000, 01:03:AM I play attacking center/right mid and as a striker. i can dribble well and i have pretty good ball control...trademark move is juggling the ball past opponents from anywhere in the field (useful when you're stuck near the corner and have your back to the goal) I'm pretty fast for my age and height. i'm 14 years old..15 in a couple of months. about 5'5 and 113 pounds. i ran the 100 meters in 11.3 secs and the 200 in 23.8 secs. my shots pretty accurate. oh...my left foot is terrible and i'm not great in the air.
sXeDeXTeR 19-12-2000, 06:14:AM What is the important aspects or attributes for a defender who is playing on the wing?I play on the right and I am a defender.I can kick high ball which produces a direct attack but I lack pace(im not the slowest nor the fastest)....is that an important factor?I was inspired by the best defender in the world Paolo Maldini but I don't think he runs fast...I think he is creative.........post ur replys
