Senior with no playtime or u19 with playtime?
I am 18 years old and I play in the lowest tier of senior football in Sweden. I played the group stage in our district tournament which takes place before the season starts. During that time my team was still recruiting players to the team and now we have better players in my position and I have not played any games this season so far (although I missed 3 games due to injury). My coach told me that it is going to be hard for me to get any game time and that he would go to a u19 team or another senior team if he were in my position. My team will most likely reach the promotion playoffs.
I don't know if I should leave the team and go to a u19 team where I would get more game time, or if I should stay and adapt to the senior intensity, but only through our training sessions. I am currently overweight but I have lost a couple of KGs and I am planning on losing more. My biggest problem right now is that I dont have the endurance to play for a long time and my quality drops off quite quickly. Losing weight would allow me to output my quality for a longer time. I have been going to the gym for a couple years so I habe muscle to keep up, it is just that I am not lean and I can't run long.
So what should I do?
