are u hinting u miss his pole?

as for me I prefer a more straightforward kind of play. I play mainly as defender and spreading the play is more specialty, thus I dont really need insane skill.. all I need is an eye to see open play..

that is just an excuse..I really love to do fancy skill in every game.. Just make sure its not going to turn into an embarrassment.. but my leg a bit "hard" for some kind of sotong skill..

for me mindset helps alot other than practice. before going on the court,i'll set my mind first. depends on the situation whether i'll play for fun or to develop my skills etc. sometimes fancying myself as a pro helps but just have to make sure i dont overdo it.

make some run, fake, 1-2 pass, it will be better...

For me,

1) Concertration
2) Footballing brain
3) Stamina

You need item number 1 for reading the opponents play.
You need item number 2 on how to counter attack them with your play.
You need item number 3 to cope with both attacking and defending.

Although, I would say 1 and 2 would be sufficient.

yeah i agree stamina also counts.i remember my coach said,if u have enough stamina,u can do anything on the field.

Most important thing as a defender (I`m a defender...wat to do..have the worst skill)

1) Positioning. Even its 2 against 1 (you) with good positioning u can easyly take the ball away. And intercepting pass

2) Eye for open play. Getting the ball away from opposition strikers is useless, if you cant convert that possession into an quick attack. And of coz u need understanding team mate too to make the run.. I lack that..

3) Stay calm You need that

i play as attacker for my team.played 2 hours a week,and at least 1 friendly match or 1 futsal tournament per month.

1-lots of stamina.

2-when my team are attacking,my side always faces last opponent defender.my front should be my opponent goal keeper

3-when my team are defending,always pressure opponent last defender.my back always faces last opponent defender,my front should be my team goal keeper

since i was a sprinter my team will play counter attack tactic
my team other striker should be a dribbler.and ready to make a killer past or thru past. when my team are leading 2+,i will be replaced by
midfielder that good at ball controlling.

so we can control the game by positioning,and passing ourself without lose the ball.

most of time we play 1 defender,1 midfielder 1 support striker and 1 ace striker.when we are leading or already make thru to second round the formation should be 2 defender and 2 defensive midfielder.

I play a free-role for my team. I usually play upfront but I roam both flanks and down in the middle as well. My team plays total football so we don't really have a fixated position but I generally play up front. But since I was bestowed with the sacred No. 9 jersey, I've been entrusted with the task to score goals and most of the time I find myself playing as a lone striker.

I've represented my high school and college teams in both field and futsal football. I was the youngest player in the Selangor League professional football when I was only 17 years old. Now I'm 24 and I just play futsal for leisure on Sunday mornings with my team named Saintz FC. We do join tournaments once in awhile and we won the Sports Barn Adidas League second pool just recently.

The type of gameplay I'd suggest for a free-role player/playmaker:

1) Running at defenders. My favourite kind of play. Backheels, nutmegs, Marseille Roulette and more. Of course added with a little of showboating. I've been a keen fan of dribbling ever since I could kick a ball and now I'm pretty confident with dribbling past defenders.

2) Vision. A through pass is the easiest way to unlock the entire defence. One good pass and you'll send the striker through on goal.

3) Holding the ball. Panic and fear is one thing you need to eliminate from the game. Always be calm and plan your moves 2 steps ahead of everyone.

My favourite is to fake a move to make space for a through pass. But most of the times even my teammates didn't see it coming zzz too fake already lol

wow cool moves,my only move were the matthews and stepover,sometime double or triple sciscors,no showboat until we are leading

Hi guys,

Since most of you sounds like play futsal, I was wandering if you know how I can join a team. I live in Gombak
, so anywhere around the area would be useful. Thanks!!!

BTW, I think that the most important thing in football is your mind set and confidence. With that, you can do anything!!

I hope to hear back from someone soon!!

stamina?its quiet important,
but if u nervous, u will lost a lot of stamina..
control the game, and take confident

Yes...stamina is very important too... but from what i see... the team's teamwork....plays a very vital role...and always to be good in positioning... find an open area and run to it... and constantly move away from your marker...

i hope i can score more goals in a game, wat steps i need to take?

the only thing that differentiates me and cristiano ronaldo is no. 3

me to...

only no 3 differentiates us....
hahaha

If you're a striker, try to take first timer shots. Do things defenders expect you not to do.

Stamina is important
But since i run threadmill for the past 3months, i gain have BIGGER lungs
Pace oso important...My pace sucks
its hard to train my pace..anyone does know how to train ?
video tutorial !

i just had probably the worst futsal session of my life..played with some new guys.hardly had any communication on the pitch, miss pass almost everytime etc etc and ended up having stomach cramp.
