[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is somewhat depressing and fascinating that this debate even exists in the USA about athletic v technical play.  
Clearly you want elite athleticism and elite technical and creative play
It is not an either or.  
Can an elite athletic team/player beat a technical one? yes
Can an elite technical team/player beat an athletic one? yes

Can you select athleticism an? Yes
can you teach technical play? Yes

The technical creative style of play vs athletic long ball and disruption is not really a debat : technical creative play is better and creates more success  for ANY team
Athletic kickball is great for only a select few teams.

The USWNT plays a hybrid as they should.   So far they have not had to play as technical but that is coming.

For youth teams, technical play takes time to develop it really is a question of when you start that reflects how soon it shows

Pele Ronaldo Messi etc are all technical and athletic.  Their creativity based on their technical and athletic ability sets them apart

That PDA team was not properly prepared by their coach tactically.  It was like they and he had never seen a passing style of play before and expecr d to high press to a win.   I’m sure they simply never saw it executed with such poise. [/quote]

Arrogance.

How do you prepare for never having the ball? How do you suddenly prepare for needing accurate passes? They are trained to play their way and their way got dismantled and then they were toyed with.

If you don’t know how to maintain possession you can’t just prepare for it. [/quote]
