    I attended a tryout at Philadelphia Lonestar FC today. It was a short tryout (we got there, did simple drills, and started playing). My team lost, we were told the formation and we had to work together to figure things out, the problem was -everyone wanted to play forward. A player even lied to me, saying he was put on striker role (when earlier I had already heard him say he was a winger). I felt so bad when I got back home. We lost, I think 4-0. My team tried, but just wasn't prepare to work together.

    I’ve attended combines and tryouts for a while and i made my breakthrough by befriending someone from England. Im from the bay area of California. That friend of mine linked me with a semiprofessional club in the UK and at the end of this month, i’ll be trialing with them

    I have that physical issues at my first tryouts but I think the team need to help talented players when the have physical problems because most of the time the dnt have doctors good nutrition’s habit but the club does why not keep them and work with them

    Lió messi didn’t get signed the first time he went on trials with Argentinian clubs. You have to have money to move across the sea and tryout. Most great players come from the hood in the poorest of cities and that’s where soccer in America is overlooking.

    Love the video! can you maybe make a video comparing some actual college Id camps and speaking about their pros and cons compared to each other. Maybe you can throw in some pro trials along with that

    Damn bro I remember when you had about 10k subs and you were eating conchas at your moms house and made that diy ball rebounder. It’s crazy to see you grow as a yoututber and become a great coach keep up the great work👍💯

    Something I struggle with is finding the time to train. I am constantly sitting in front of the computer and have been lazy since this whole Covid situation. I really want to become a pro player but the lack of motivation and finding on what things to improve really bring me down. I am stuck at home and cant play. I cant exercise. If you could make a video on some topic which would help, that would be greatly appreciated!

    I’ve gone to numerous open tryouts, my recent one was for Sacramento Republic $220 for 2 days. I disliked how unprofessional the gear was for tryouts pins and needles to stick a # on there vests, they told us players to decide the substitutions on the 1st day even though each team had a coach… On the last day they said they would sent out an email & when that day came Sacramento only selected 2 players. I wasn’t a fan of how they didn’t introduce the 2 players names they selected in the email…. I won’t take away how they had some good snacks at the end and the experience! I Would love to attend an open tryout from DC FC though 🤙🏼
