Listened to the sub’s advice and my kicking has improved greatly

Last time I asked questions regarding goal kicks and locking in the ankle.

The advice I got that really helped me is to make sure my weight remains forward after contact with the ball for better follow through, as well as landing on the kicking foot.

Tried it today and got (I think) good results

How do I improve my form in goalkicks, including locking in my ankle?

I can hit outside of the middle circle on the other half, but I feel like the ball isn’t driven enough. Any suggestions?

18-19 jährige mit 100k€+ Autos? Woher das Geld?

Ich kann nicht glauben dass mit 18 Jahre man 10-15k€ für vorauszahlung hat und kann sich 600-700€ monatlich für Leasing ausgeben leisten.

Kann auch nicht glauben dass jeder einen extrem reichen Vater hat der seinem Kind einen top Mercedes oder BMW schenken kann. Wer kann diesen Phänomen erklären?

Alternatives to 4 finger glove?

What alternatives are there if I need to buddytape pinky and ring, without having to stitch the glove or order a custom glove? Would buddytaping the fingers when they are inside the regular glove theoretically woek?

Im Bus/Obus keine Kühlung

Nach Gefühl im jeden zweiten Obus ist ein Ofen drinnen. Ich kann kaum glauben dass so viele Buse Kühlungsdefekte haben. Was geht da ab?

Nothing better than ragebaiting your striker mates with unneccessary dives😂 (I have to acknowledge the crappy landing technique I had here)

After looking at it, it reminded me of one of the posts here where the guy ran from outside the goal and beautifully denied top bins, with the same crappy ahh landing as I have here😂

Am I the only one to notice that people who come in last minute usually work in industries with the strictest opening hours?

I really do notice that people who work in industries like medicine, banking, real estate etc. will often come 1 minute before closing and complain about being turned down.

Yet, if I come to a bank or a doctor (who usually work from like 9am to 4pm the best case in where I’m from) 10mins before the end of their acceptance hours, I will get turned down and asked to book an appointment in about 345 light years from now🤣🤣🤣

Footwork check please

I don’t want to be like that infamous guy posting unneccesary TV saves, so I genuinely need to know how my footwork is here. Thanks a lot!

What prevented me from securing the ball on the first impact?

The way I see it:

  1. I got low and got a good pushoff with my right leg
  2. I attacked the ball in a forward motion
  3. I tried to keep my bottom arm as close to the ground as possible

Why in the world did the ball manage to escape my hands?🫣 What did go wrong exactly?

Need feedback on my solo session and whether I’m going into right direction with solo drills.

Also, need suggestion for other solo drills. Crossing is not included into this video because I was focusing on handling and distribution for the session. Thanks a lot!

How to completely get rid of the habit to land on the bottom hand?

Funny enough, I don’t have this problem during games and team trainings as I’m concentrated a lot and subconsciously I don’t have this damn habit.

However, when training with my friend for fun and him taking shots, the habit consciously hits in. How to achieve that I consciously get rid of this habit fully?

What’s your least favorite type of shot to face (excluding wide lowshots)?

I will start: weird deflections. Especially when dispositioned.

Is this catchable?

Got this unexpected shot on target, and after reviewing the footage I’m wondering if it was catchable with an extra microstep to the right. I’m 185cm, which is a bit short for GK, but I don’t think that was the main issue here. Ik a save is a save, but still🥲

P.S. working on my landing
