    It feels so weird to watch a normal Training session after people are brainwashed by tiktok's extra saturated and highly edited videos, this is exactly how i litteraly train but it feels like i'm not perfect as i've been comparing myself with social media shorts. This is a huge motivation for me, thanks michael for showing the actual training.❤

    Is it possible for you to create a complete training program that covers all aspects for different positions, for instance a specialized program for a left winger that includes everything from technical ability to fitness aspects. I think that would be great as I have been looking for something like this but nobody is selling it for a low price.

    I saw your "The ultimate guide to 1v1 dribbling " video. There you said, "A lot of defenders will always stay side on with you, flat footed, trying not to get nutmegged so if defenders facing you like this (you brought your arms near your thighs), they have made your job easier, just knock the ball and run away, they have to rotate 180 degree " I didn't understand that point.

    The point I made is that if you’re facing a less experienced defender, who approaches you with their hips facing towards you, this is a vulnerable position for them to be in if you decided to push the ball past them.

    Hey Micheal 🙌 I wanted to ask this. At the highest level, it seems that football is played more with the mind than absolute athleticism. I have used your drills to improve my technical abilities to amazing levels. For a few months, I have been more focused on the mental aspect of football. I tried to use visual stimuli when doing individual training and also just analysed the pattern of play of different players (CM and CAM), For example, when they receive the ball I noted that there are a handful of scenarios which require specific turns and for others, they perform different moves. I don't know if what I said was clear, But basically, the top players analyse the game so quickly and realise what move they need to perform, and to us, it looks seamless. I'd be really interested if you came up with drills or an entire video explaining your point of view on this mate. Thank you 🙌
