Players who have not been trained from an early age in major soccer academies usually struggle to deal with the intensity of the game after they end up in a high-level professional club!
The skills of such a player are high and in theory he can do everything, but during matches or training, it turns out that he does it all TOO SLOWLY or the player after several minutes with such pace and intensity does not have the strength to continue playing or training .
Before such a player adjusts to the level, pace and intensity that prevail in the league, he is usually already kicked from the team or at best loaned to a weaker club to give him time to adapt.
We have already mentioned that even Robert Lewandowski, who is currently one of the best footballers in the world at the beginning of his career, after he came to Borussia Dortmund from the Polish Ekstarklasa, had huge problems in this aspect to deal with and only thanks to the patience of Coach Klopp he had time to make up for these deficiencies.
If you train individually, learn about these aspects and if you miss any of them or have problems with them, start working on it now so that you don't waste your chance to play for your dream club in the future.
1) PHYSICAL AND SPEED PREPARATION.
We have already written about the aspect of physical and speed preparation many times, but if you want to appear on a professional level, you must always be absolutely 100 percent prepared, otherwise you have no chance.
2) MAKE RIGHT DECISIONS QUICKLY
To avoid feeling that the professional level is too high for you, start training now.
Try to make each training session under time pressure or pressure from your opponent.
Below we present a set of exercises that will help you improve this aspect.
3) BALL CONTROL
With high intensity of the game on the pro level, the player must be perfect in terms of ball control, because any mistake in the first touch or loss of the ball while running may result in the loss of a goal.
Football is really a simple game and in many articles we have already emphasized the importance of this element and presented training sets to improve it.
Don't forget about him.
4) FAST FEET AND APPROPRIATE MOTION COORDINATION.
It is one of the most important elements, regardless of position, so that you can bring your game to a professional level.
If you have the impression that this element is at a sufficient level for you, we recommend that you compare with a professional on the pitch at a high level ...
5) UNDERSTANDING TACTICS AND REACTING QUICKLY TO MISTAKES.
In order for each of the above-mentioned elements to fully help you so that the intensity at the professional level is not a problem for you, first of all, you need to start learning to understand the tactics of the game at this level now.
If you are not at this level yet and want to improve this element, you should analyze the behavior of the best teams in the world as a whole and watch the best players play in their position and then try to transfer these elements to your game.
Note how these players react when they make a mistake, how quickly they try to fix it, etc.
Below is a video training of selected elements.
