Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIts not going to change over night, but I can tell you the coaches are now being directed towards a club style of play which is possession based. The new DOC is pushing them to start rolling the ball out more from the keeper and teach to possess the ball throughout the field. That is valued far and above wins right now. Its the reason some coaches are no longer there, as they weren't in line with the new direction.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI only gave one specific example, that is not the ONLY thing being pushed by the new DOC. I thought someone as wise as you clearly are would understand that.
It is much more than that and says much more about a coach who is down and still forces his team to play their style. Possession leads to goals and ultimately teaches the team this very important and not very well agreed-to point. But, most importantly, it teaches the kids how to actually play the game correctly.
Listen during your next game since you swear that your club is playing this way. I guarantee the next time you are down, parents complain that the team is "passing too much". If they don't, you aren't doing what you said your new DOC is preaching.
I hear this all the time at the PDX Timbers games. Fans complaining when we are even tied that the ball is played backwards; that they aren't lumping it to Adi. If you want an idea of what real possession looks like Mr. Expert, check out 3Four3, they practice what they preach and develop/win doing it. Your club is far from a possession team and are significantly closer to bootball. Sorry if that word stings a bit, but I accept my club's faults, try doing the same. Unless you are part of the club...

Poke as much at it as you want, possession is the "right" way to play and teach our youth. To think otherwise says all you need to know (ask England why they have failed so much on the national level).
