[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s kind of hilarious how self-assured so many parents on this thread are about what makes a good soccer player. The American UMC obsession with soccer itself is also hilarious. (Since apparently most of you haven’t noticed, America sucks at soccer 🤣) But I’m sure when the English Premier League signs kids at like 13-14, it’s only after making sure they can run a mile in a given amount of time. Probably has nothing to do with experienced scouts/coaches being able to identify an innate talent and having the confidence to know that fitness levels can always be improved...[/quote] No EPL team would sign a kid who couldn't be bothered to train enough to get fit. They look for a lot more than just technical ability. They look for attitude, leadership, willingness to work etc. Any kid who can't do as his coach asks would not make it.[/quote]
