mentality and the crowd

we should only be interested in two mentalities.

the winger mentality
wait on the flank for the chance to run. and when the chance comes, move so fast that the opponent can't even react.

the playmaker mentality
be right in the thick of things, stringing passes, making things work.

we always say we need to have guts. i think a very big part of what guts means is the ability to play in a stadium.

if you want to play with the best, on the highest level, you have to learn first to play in front of a crowd. in front of an intimidating crowd. you have to be able to shut out the crowd. block them out and do what you need to do.

only when you have learnt this can you play on the highest level.

i am not really talking about football here.
