[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t just possess. At some point you need to generate an effective attack. Positive possession with patience. But if you take no risks there will be no reward. This is true with everything in life, including soccer and these kids need to be taught that lesson. [/quote]

How many good chances, shots on goal, and goals scored should a team generate in 90 minutes to satisfy you?[/quote]

Well, first these kids are little so they don’t play 90 minutes. Second, there’s no set formula here bud. It’s a mindset. No risk, no reward is not a good way to enjoy life and keep away soccer with no goal scoring chances gets boring after a while. [/quote]

I asked the question because the guy belittling the kids hadn't watched the video.  I knew he hadn't watched the video since he didn't even see the goal at the 3 minute mark.  The point is that these kids are NOT playing keep away soccer.  They had something like fifteen to twenty good chances in the game and plenty of creative play.  [/quote]

Not belittling the kids at all, just you. And it is not about the video nor the kids, but the philosophy. Kids for U10s look great. Not disputing that, but there are quite a few nuts on this general forum who think players don’t need to be athletic and that teams don’t need to play a positive style of soccer. That’s who I am responding too. [/quote]

So in other words, you could have said...Kids look good but I would like to see some more attacking, 1v1s, creativity instead of passing it around in the back and being safe, but it will come. Keep up the good work.  Instead of being a d-bag.  Yes, even if you didn't intend to, you came across as a huge d-bag.[/quote]
