 can use in a wide area. So whether you're a winger, a wide midfielder, sometimes a striker makes a run out here, a full back, getting forward, it's very important that you know what you wanna do. So we'll go into the skills, I'll give you all the examples, but I want you to have the right mindset when you're in this situation. So first of all, when I'm in this situation, a lot of us, we see the defender in front of us where maybe he's a little further back and we think we have to beat him. Well, if this guy's gonna lay off me and he's gonna give me space, I don't even have to do the move. I wanna put the ball into the box, especially if my teammates have already made the run. If your teammates have already made the run, you see this guy, now you're trying to beat him, they've stopped their runs, they've already gone into the box, now they have to shuffle back out, defenders are marking them, so you've taken too long to make the decision. So sometimes the best move, the best skill in this area, you just get it out of your feet and whip it into the box, put it in a good cross into the box. So play me another pass. So first of all, when you get this, analyze the space, as that ball is coming to you, before it's coming to you, you already know, okay, he's off me as soon as I get that, I see the runs are coming in the box. Well, if I have time, I'm just gonna play it, well, I'm gonna get it on my right foot and I'm just gonna play it into the box. Okay, so realize that your job as the winger in this area is not necessarily to beat the guy, it's to deliver the cross. Now, if the cross has to come early, because your teammates are making the run, where the space is there, then take that option. If, however, your teammates haven't gotten to the box, no one's making good runs, there's no options, well, now you're in a situation where, yes, I may have to beat this guy, so now I can get my head up, I can get a better angle and I can make a better decision and give it a better quality cross. So I want you to use moves, but I want you to use them when they're necessary. So another thing I want you to think about, can you play me another pass? Is your positioning, so we'll just wait for a second. So a lot of players, they might be marked by this guy, maybe the ball's coming across in the midfield, they're the winger, they're the wide player, they're receiving it like here. Well, he's already on top of me, he might get on top of my touch, he might force me to go backwards, I don't have the time and space to put in the cross or to go at him with speed. So what I want to do in this situation, as that ball's traveling, I realize that it might be coming to me and obviously this is a standstill example, I'm probably making a run, but you want to think about getting space for yourself. So as that ball's coming across, instead of trying to receive it here, I want to check out here. So now I have space to either put in that cross or I can go at him with speed and make my decision. So think about getting a little space for yourself. Now when that ball does come to you, play me again, if I'm deciding that I'm going to go at him because I know it's not the right time to cross, my teammates aren't in the box, then I'm going to do that without hesitation. So again, the ball's coming across, I'm finding my space. I already know, boom, I want to get at him. So I'm going without hesitation. I'm not receiving the ball for me one more time. I'm not coming here, receiving the ball, now getting my head up, now, okay, hesitating, hesitating, okay, he's closing me down. And even if I do beat him, where am I going? He's right on top of me. So go without hesitation. Think about getting your space for yourself. Analyzing, is it the right time to cross or should I make a move in this situation?
