Hey guys, i just came back from a college showcase invitational, and we went 1-4-1. We kinda got raped after the first game, and even though we're talented enough we're never on the same page. The last 4 games of the tournament were horrendous for me, also due to fatigue but i feel im not very effective at the wide defender position. im not sure if i should put the list but will do so.
i would leave you in a defensive spot if not CB. your weakness's are some of the major ones needed to move up into a DM type position and especially CM.
eh take away that tracking back weakness...but yea i do play better at center back but i'm not very tall, standing at 5'9 1/2"...the teams we played had an average height of 6'0 or taller so im not sure if i should follow through with CB. it is true that CB is a lil easier for me to play[/quote]
i would put you as a striker, defensive mid and cb are some of the postions that require players to be the most agressive, and espeically win 50/50 balls. If you have good aerial ability and control to bring the ball down, a good first touch to make a layoff pass, and good striking ability then you should be a solid striker

except endurance, agression and decision making are slightly key for a forward. strikers don't constantly run but they do make a million sprints a game ( at least the good ones do)
Thanks guys. the only problem is that the varsity team that i'm trying out for is ranked nationally. Most of the juniors left over after the seniors graduated are all defenders... there's about 5 defenders on the team already and about 3 in front of me (in my class)... I'm debating whether I should still tryout as a defender or try a new one
Be a Thomas Muller. Muller himself not that good in defending, not having extraordinary skills as a winger. But his good positioning in wide area made him one of the best player.
