1) THE RIGHT MENTAL ATTITUDE FOR EVERY TRAINING AND GAME.
The biggest mistake many players waste their careers on by using only part of their potential and talent is a different mental approach to training and a completely different approach to the match.
Sir Alex Ferguson always said that if you don't work out something during training, you won't do it in the game.
Therefore, regardless of whether it is an individual training, club training or a championship match, commitment should always be absolutely maximum.
Only thanks to this do you have a chance.
2) SPEED PHYSICAL PREPARATION
Nowadays, professional football in every league is based on the incredible intensity of the game and the athleticism of the players.
Therefore, even if you are extremely technically prepared, but not followed by motor preparation, it will probably be enough up to a point, when it turns out that the coach decides to choose a perhaps technically weaker player who will catch up with a lot more commitment to speed and strength.
3) TECHNICAL PREPARATION AND BALL CONTROL.
We have shown you in many conversations with agents and scouts of European clubs that ball control and technical preparation are the elements that all talent scouts pay attention to in the first place.
It is absolutely not that every player in professional football presents a technique on the level of Neymar.
However, note that most players at this level have no problem catching the ball, passing it accurately to a teammate, or shooting at goal.
It is important that you can do it in the match under the pressure of the opponent and not only in training when no one is bothering you.
4) TACTICAL KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING HOW A TEAM PLAY.
Although we encourage you to train individually every day, we emphasize at every step that individual training is just an addition and in order for you to develop as a footballer, club training and regular playing in matches are essential.
All because a tactic in which each player has a strict range of tasks to fulfill, plays a huge role in football.
If the player does not understand the tactical assumptions or is unable to implement them, despite the large individual skills, he will probably not be successful.
A good way to individually improve this aspect is to observe and follow the example of the best players playing in your position.
Pay attention to such aspects as the player playing in your position behaves when he has the ball, what does he do when the ball is gone?
How does he get into position to receive the ball?
How do I behave in the defense phase and how do I behave in attack?
5) REGENERATION AND NUTRITION OF THE PLAYER.
These two aspects are usually the key difference between a professional footballer and an amateur.
Note that most amateur footballers usually do not pay attention to nutrition and eat absolutely everything without realizing how destructive it can affect their body.
It is similar with regeneration.
Amateurs usually do not pay attention to the amount of sleep or the rest and regeneration training.
Robert Lewandowski, currently the best footballer in the world, said that it was the introduction of a proper diet and regeneration that allowed him to reach such a high level that he turned from an average footballer into one of the best.
His wife, who is a very well-known dietitian and presonal trainer, helped him to introduce these elements into his life.
Now that you are an amateur, it probably seems unrealistic to you to introduce all these elements, both training and other, into your life.
However, many successful players have already done so in the amateur game stage, which has brought them amazing results over the next few years and has allowed them to overcome this very difficult path to professional play. .
To increase the chance of success, gradually incorporate these elements into both individual training and lifestyle.
6) THE SPEED OF MAKING THE RIGHT DECISIONS AND THEIR IMPLEMENTATION
Nowadays, football is played at an incredible pace. In order to keep up with this, the player must not only be perfectly prepared in terms of speed, but also make decisions very quickly and implement them on the pitch.
This is one of the most difficult elements to improve because it consists of many elements.
- reading the game
- prediction
- good technique
- Coordination
If you want to improve this element, at the beginning, improve the points mentioned above step by step.
Moreover, in order to become better and better at this element, you just have to play matches, playing gradually at a higher and higher level.
This element will develop with your experience in the game.
