[quote=Anonymous]Please don't think I was trying to say it's the players' fault. They take their cues from their coach, and play according to the coach's plan. I just personally think that because this is YOUTH SOCCER and we are attempting to develop these kids so they can hopefully be the next generation of players, we also need to realize that these kids will play on other teams and for other coaches down the line. Therefore, a coach should try to play the most proactive style possible, as they don't really learn much nor do they become better players by playing long-ball tactics 90% of the time. Any dad with limited to no experience of the game could make a team play like that, so I just don't see the allure in putting your kid on a team that has that particular philosophy. Soccer is a beautiful game and what your kids love the most, they should try to win every game by trying to play WELL, not by playing anti-soccer and clamping down at the back with 9 defenders like the Alamo. Catenaccio stopped being an effective tactic 40 years ago, just my 2 cents.[/quote]
