VEO FEEDBACK
Touchtight Community! I need your help. I’ve been coaching a women’s team for 18 months now. We play a 4231 - but we constantly struggle with playing out from the back. Our GK cannot kick long and we want to be a possession based team. We Veo every game and I do the analysis every week. In and out of possession.
I’m constantly seeing the same issues and errors. Lack of bravery to play into midfield, combined with poor passing ability. A midfield pivot that never seems to understand how and where to find space to help in the build. We do (on occasion) see some great build patterns. But they’re happening less and less and my Veo analysis is being taken on board less and less. Is there anyone out there who would mind taking a look at one or two of our games? Do you see the same as me? I’m seeing the wrong things? I’m getting dissaslutioned with it, as the team seem to be regressing.
Women’s first team coach
I have a new 17 year old playing her first season in open-age, women's football. She has never had any proper coaching, so her first touch, passing, shooting, dribbling - almost all core skills are currently behind the level we need her to be.
However, she has the fitness level and energy of a Grand National racehorse. 90 minutes at full pace is nothing to her. Doesn't even break a sweat. Never seen anything like it, but she is all over the park. Has no positional sense.
In the short term, how would you recomemmend getting the best out of a player like that?
My thoughts are to give her one thing to focus on, and build from there.
For example, "Mary, today, when we don't have the ball, I want you to stick to their #8 and make sure she does not get the ball. Be really aggressive, fair but aggresive, and when you win the ball, pass to the closest player on our team."
What are your thoughts?
We're going to need months to get her to a decent level, but in the interrim, I'm thinking we can gain these small wins and take things from there.

Session 898: Breaking Lines and Playing Between is designed for players aged 15–17 to master central build-up play and unlock compact defences. Through tight combinations, third-man runs, and positional rotations in a 4-2-3-1, players learn to receive between the lines, play under pressure, and create decisive moments in the final third.
