  • “O treino de futebol é muito mais do que isso, não é tanto o exercício em si, mas a sua intenção com ele, ou seja, a sua Metodologia, Estratégia e Princípios, os seus Objectivos Específicos para o exercício e, o mais importante, a sua Comunicação durante o exercício!” Neste belo jogo que é o Futebol, a Defesa é tão crucial quanto o Ataque.  Aliás, não consigo perceber isso de forma diferente, pois para se treinar as Estratégias Ofensivas tem que… Read

  • This is, without a doubt, a very impactful statement in Football.Especially coming from a Football Coach. Although this is also my honest opinion, I must say that the facts support me, in a way. Consequently, what makes a Coach remarkable?And, more importantly, why do we have the same references for such a long time? Let’s look at the Top-Profile Coaches around the World at think about the last couple of decades. Who are they?From Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp, Carlo Ancelotti,… Read

  • In the ever-evolving world of football, the coaching market is a dynamic landscape where dreams are realized, and careers are shaped. It’s a realm where clubs and coaches alike come together in pursuit of shared aspirations and ambitions. But the process isn’t clear, transparent, or perhaps the Coaches don’t understand what is actually required to be an option for that place. Let’s try to put this together and understand better the perspectives, considerations and premisses from each side! “It’s essential… Read

  • In the beautiful game of Football, Defense is just as crucial as Offense. “Football training is much more than that, it’s not so much the exercise itself, but your intention with it, meaning your Methodology, Strategy and Principles, yours Specific Objectives for the exercise and, most importantly, your Communication during the exercise!” By the way, I can’t perceive it as different, as if you want to train the Attacking Strategies, there must be Defenders, right?However, Football Training is much more… Read

  • “We won!I’m the best! My team is the best!Let’s celebrate!!!” Sounds familiar? All because, in the end, is just another day. In the euphoria of victory, it’s easy to get carried away by the thrill of triumph.But what happens after the final whistle blows?Just like a nutritionist would say that after the game/exercise the worst thing we could do is to go for fast food, or any soda, how we react to success plays a pivotal role in shaping our… Read

  • Offer is here. What now? Take it or not? Many of us have already been in situations where we just feel that we can go into any team and have an immediate impact ? Or maybe desperate to get a job that can sustain us and the family ? Or even, just feel that all we need is an opportunity to show our abilities, regardless the level of entry ?Of course, there are different motivations for each one of us… Read

  • In the world of Football (and I would even add in today’s society system) victory is often celebrated, while defeat is viewed as a bitter pill to swallow. There’s this demonization of the defeat as you’re some kind of lower end of that specific group, or society just because you lost. Same thing happens with mistakes, or errors.But why?What if I told you that losing plays an equally (if not greater) crucial role in shaping not just a player’s skills,… Read

  • Seems logical to think this way (specially coming from a Portuguese national). The disclaimer here would be that I’m biased, I know, as a Portuguese national. But, truth to be said, the facts are there, and there are not many Coaches with more success than the Portuguese nationals. Likes of dislikes of the different styles apart, the reality is here. From Jorge Jesus, Carlos Queiroz, Jesualdo Ferreira, Abel Ferreira, Paulo Fonseca, Leonardo Jardim, Paulo Bento, Rui Vitória, Nuno Espírito Santo,… Read

  • Let’s get this clear, Talent Identification and Scouting in Youth Football are crucial components of Player Development and talent management within the sport. However, to identify talent requires a set of skills from the observer that are not easy to be born with.To start, there’s a clear demand for experience in the observed game.Then, honestly, Scouting is a very broad word. Who are you scouting to?Those reports are send to whom?  What are the goals and objectives of the recruitment?… Read

  • “I play as a Striker, Coach” says a 8 years old.  May I ask you: Is this teaching Football? Is this relevant?In how many positions should we teach our players to be good at? Difficult questions here. True. But one is easy to answer (at least for me), and that is that a 8 or 10 years old does not have is position in the field defined. Not just yet.They should not think that they can only play as a… Read
