size is nothing in soccer, in fact in most cases makes the player much more slow to react to interaction with the ball. [/quote]

Terrible take. Size is a definite advantage. My striker child loves to see a short goalie. You will see at least one chip shot goal every time the goalie is short. Headers are another time when size matters. I've seen smaller players be lifted and dropped to the side by a bigger player to get better positioning on a throw in.

But like a PP said earlier. Say you have a small player without saying it. Keep dreaming.[/quote]

My player is average, not small so you are wrong. But I have played the sport, so I know how it is in there. Goalies are a different story. YOU DON"T need size to play. You would understand if you had actually played and not just watched your kids chipping the tiny goalie  :D [/quote]

I played for years. Our family is full of current and former players and coaches.  I know very well what an advantage size is. Goalies aren't a different story at all.[/quote]

Maybe it matters at what level you all played. Size is def not a factor. Watch Spain 2010 for reference.  :D [/quote]
