Not if you have a bad touch. More turnover just means you are more likely to lose the ball if you do not have the skills. Seriously there are so few female players that have the control and touch to take a defender on the dribble while still looking to pass. People mistake speed for skill. Watch what happens when the offensive player is stopped from moving forward. Do they create or is it a turnover.
Size(height and weight) plays it’s part- longer reach, more mass, stronger, etc. This is not a debate. They select speed, size and aggression. Go look at any team from u9 through USWNT.
As a side note, you can see the shortest and tallest players on the USWNT playing great soccer at Man City. If you watched the last US friendly Lavelle and Mewis are playing a different game vs the rest of the team. It’s because they are playing at Man city.

This dude said go look at any U9 to USWNT. Lol. The is next level craziness.
Sure. The players on my DD top team at u9 were big and fast for their age. At u13 selection, the ECNL coaches told the parents we are looking for size and speed. Same thing from the college coaches. Continue to talk about turnover.
Everyone on this thread realizes that every other nation makes fun of Americans for being terrible at soccer, right?
And that they accuse American soccer coaches at most levels of recruiting for size and speed and athleticism and not skill level, yes?
And they all laugh at us because they think it’s the reason American soccer players are bad, right?
I mean, can I say it more explicitly: Giuseppe Rossi went abroad for training because his dad thought that American programs recruited too much for athleticism and not enough for skill.

You are full of sh@t. Go take a nap
Previous poster is exactly right. Size and speed are the first cut at that age. They think they can train soccer skills in. This is why the US struggles on the men's side and will struggle more on the women's side as the world catches up.
Already seeing it with the Spanish women. The play great soccer.
Remind me what the Spanish women have actually won.
There are 282.6 million more people in the US.

LOL I have never heard a ECNL coach ever say this. They are looking for good soccer players and if they have size and speed that is an obvious advantage but they have to deal with a normal size distribution that life presents.

There's a change in movement every 2-5 seconds. With that being said, linear acceleration does matter, but it is probably a player's first 10-15 meters that are most important, and after that their ability to decelerate/change a direction and then re-accelerate is what truly matters.
Shorter strides. Faster turnover. Thats how to create explosive acceleration.

Different poster but either counter the point or STFU.
Shorter strides with high turnover combined with skill creates a more elite player.
