A Post For All Aspiring Midfielders

This is a video highlight from a recent match which follows every touch of Arsenal's Tomas Rosicky. If you want to make better decisions in the middle of the park, watch the soccer decisions he makes. What positions does he take up? How does move to get open? When does he dribble and when does he play quick? When does he attack and when does he possess? How does he help defend?

Then incorporate your observations into your play in practices, matches, and at home.



What's most impressive for me is to see how many times his movement allows him to receive the ball with his back to goal and do a half-turn to be able to create or link an attack.
