[quote=Anonymous]At 11? Technical ability. Their true speed potential can't be determined pre-puberty. Technical ability gives me an indication of time already spent learning the skills required to play the game. Speed just gives me some insight into their raw athleticism. While soccer is a sport that requires a good deal of overall athleticism without the skills to go with it, you're pretty useless. Some would say you can't teach speed, but I think most are talking about potential and natural ability. Otherwise there is obviously SAQ training. Having said that, there is also a limit for players on the technical side. Not every player has the same potential for technical ability either. There are a lot of fast players out there, especially the higher in competition you go. Its the truly technical players that stand out for me.[/quote]
