[quote=Anonymous]Just my opinion, but aggressiveness is the most overrated quality in the age range your son is in (I have older boys). The skills are generally not yet refined enough to move the ball quickly, so the kids that go in hard and play the body have success winning the ball and making plays. As they get older, there is physical play, but the ball moves quicker, and I think players learn to handle it better and not get bullied off the ball. I was at a u19 game recently and the center mid - who wasn’t aggressive, not physical, but a solid athlete absolutely dominated the game (not my kid, lol). Terrific at scanning the field, finding pockets of space to work in, taking a couple of touches and setting up his teammates and getting through on goal...And worked hard defensively to win the ball, step in front of passes, etc. [/quote]
