What playing position is your best?

You don't have to listen to him.

I see myself as a CDM, but I can also play striker since I can finish well

oh and I'm good at goalkeeper, because I'm a wicketkeeper in cricket so yeah. In the 3 games I've played as goalkeeper I've saved 1 penalty and conceded 1 goal

I'm best as an attacking full back. I can't head or defend for shit but I still get played in defence cos I get down the wing pretty good.

Used to play as a striker for my old team and finished as top scorer in the 2 seasons I was there, but it was only in Division 2

Why did you stop playing up front then?

This thread should be called "we're all messi"

I play as a center back and read the game pretty well. I love playing as a deep lying central midfielder though, I love to be involved be it attacking or defending.

I didn't, my manager puts me full back.

I used to play for a Division 1 Saturday team as a full back all the way up until Under 16's. Then at Under 14's I joined a local Sunday team in Division 2 and played Sundays as well as Saturday's, but I played up front on the Sunday cos I was star player I left that team after 2 seasons and now just play for the team i've always played for as full back, but we play in a mens league on a Sunday morning now

Now that's an idea.

Quite surprised considering you're height.

Are you really fast like Cordoba?

i would say a Central Midfielder since although could be seen as a Defensive Midfielder for the reason that whenever i do play i always want to help out at the back whilst at the same i want to create an opportunity for the players that are forward.

So, would you see yourself as a box to box midfielder in some ways if you are constantly changing from bursting forward and helping out in defence?

I just play for my uni team, staggered striker in a 3-5-2, im short and got quick feet and actually pretty good at dribbling..well I think so, decent shot but not great at headers

I like to play in defence/DM for some reason.

I'm only 5'8, and fast. Like Cordoba.

People saying CAM-CDM etc etc

most average Sunday league teams just play old fashioned 442, they're not Mourinho

I have decent speed, like I said I read the game decent enough to not have to make reckless last ditch challenges. Plus its not like I play professionally, I don't have to deal with aerial balls that much.

Goalkeeper.

Safe hands Sam.

Fuck yeah.

Off-topic but MSN?

Yeah, one min. Can only come on for 20 mins or so.

I know they probably do, but within that players will tend to move about and find their own positions that they are good at within the midfield.

You must have quite a lot of stamina, as that is a hard position to play, which requires a lot of constant sprinting.
