Everyones path to the top is different ie: Ronaldo vs Messi [/quote] So much delusion on this thread. [/quote] No delusion you obviously dont know soccer or sports. [/quote] Actually, I do. That’s how I know. [/quote] Ok, so your obviously in the Ronaldo category (minus the natural athletic ability). So you kid trains hard both paid and unpaid, you watch lots of premier league so you think you know, but for some reason your still not getting those higher level D1 communications that your hoping for.....even though your doing all the extras your still not raising a high performing kid. High for him/her yes, but we cant all be elite. Dont assume someone is not high performing because they arent doing everything you are or that you will be elite because you are doing all the extras.[/quote] Ronaldo is known for his hard and consistent training regimen and diet Not natural ability [/quote] Exactly my point and Messi is not, yet they are both were arguably the best players in the world. Meaning there are different ways of getting there. [/quote] Stop comparing Messi to the kid who doesn’t train. Messi is a special case. You will never see a player like him ever. Cristiano should be the lead example. You work hard you get rewarded, you don’t work hard you get cut and eventually you quit soccer.[/quote] Most don't realize Ronaldo didn't start taking training and nutrition serious until he was a pro. A lot of those guys had natural abilities but also they played 24/7 in their youth environment. Our kids train, their kids play at every waking moment which is the difference between world stars and our stars. [/quote] Where is this information that Ronaldo did not take training seriously until he was a pro? It's missing from all the documentaries and biographies [/quote] Ok my bad it's been a while since I've seen any of them. He quit school around 15 to train full time and then went to United around 18. From what I had seen he didn't take training more serious until then because he saw how the pros worked, such as staying after practice and shooting for hours, using ankle weights while practicing step overs etc. [b]In my mind tho at 15 he was basically almost pro[/b] or at least knew he was getting there. And don't think I'm knocking training but like most people the key thing I think we're missing is the free playing atmosphere. On certain days would I opt to keep my kid out of practice if there were pickup games available I would definitely do it.[/quote] How did he become a pro at age 15 according to your logic? Was it Tinker-Bell who magically sprinkled some pixie dust on him or did he work and train ALOT between the ages of 8-14 and the results just showed themselves once he was 15 years of age?[/quote] He won a Pro Player scratch off ticket at the gas station at 15 after 7 years on the couch playing video games[/quote]
