In my Modern Soccer Coach podcast interview I shared how we push footballers with challenging drills:
“This isn’t going to be fun at first. It’s difficult.” But that’s where improvement happens.
Our mantra? “Easy is boring.” 💪

@BartHeuvingh @AZAlkmaar 🙌 thanks Bart

[Phil Phillipou @CoachPhilP]

Thank you @BartHeuvingh & @AZAlkmaar for taking time to read Inspiring Young Minds.

AZ’s Academy has been one of my favorite academies in since visiting there a few years ago.

I love their philosophy around growth mindset (which I discuss in the book)

Advise Wanted

I'm going to do an online charity event to raise money for underprivileged children in sports.

Any reliable charities that people have worked with or recommend?

Any help appreciated.

Hearing a lot of coaches complaining that "this generation doesn't want to learn".

Pure excuses.

For millennia people have been saying that the next generation is broken. WE the coaches have to adapt, it is OUR responsibility. Be agile or be fragile. #FootballCoaching

@lstoney7 Brilliant insight and so true. Quality over quantity.

It goes back to the saying “not everything that can be counted counts and not everything that counts can be counted”

[Phil Phillipou @CoachPhilP]

Top visual @lstoney7 . This is so underrated. Instead of ‘always call for the ball’, let’s encourage our players to only call for the ball if:

1. In a better position than the ball player and/or teammates
2. Already have an idea of what they’re going to do

[Lee Stone ⚽️📚📝 @lstoney7]

@CoachPhilP Currently reading your book after your @power_ray webinar .

Half way in and picked a few 💡 especially this for a current age group I’m coaching.

[Lee Stone ⚽️📚📝 @lstoney7]

@CoachPhilP A player with 25 purposeful touches can outperform a player with 80 pointless touches.
A player who tries to break lines and occasionally loses the ball is more valuable than a player who keeps it safe but never hurts the opposition. Data will say 1 player kept the ball more

[DailyAFC @DailyAFC]

Mikel Arteta on the non-negotiables he has enforced at Arsenal since arriving at the club…

🗣️ “There are a lot! Rules are okay as a first step, but after, what needs to drive the culture is the standards. The moment you lose trust from people, you are out.” ❌😤

[Phil Phillipou @CoachPhilP]

@lstoney7 It’s very much a cultural belief in the anglosphere.

Interesting take, tell me more regarding the player touches

[Phil Phillipou @CoachPhilP]

Any other coaches go through this post-game rumination? Would love to hear your tips on winding down after a game (especially a loss). #CoachingFootball #footballcoach

The Coaches Post-Game Wind Down… 🧠⚽️

A couple of weeks ago, one of my unbeaten youth teams faced another unbeaten side on their intimidating home turf.

We went 2-0 up inside 10 mins. The momentum then shifted rapidly...
1/7

[Phil Phillipou @CoachPhilP]

This reminds me of one of my favorite quotes, more relevant today than ever:

“The answers you’re looking for are in the silences you’re avoiding.”

Silence isn’t empty. It’s where you allow your thoughts to bubble up and release.
