How to Scan to Have MUCH Better Vision (Quickly)

not every player have great vision but I think it's probably one of the most important as well as the hardest attribute to [Music] improve if you don't think you have a great vision you need to do everything you can to bring it to a certain level especially if you want to play at higher [Music] levels but what is vision and what do we consider a great vision or how do we improve it vision is not actually those great through balls or amazing passes but vision is actually what leads your brain to think where you need to be passing that ball or where you need to be making run to receive the ball creating that space for yourself to actually receive the ball or actually to make yourself think what your next move is going to be I consider everything you do on the pitch a great vision and that's why it's very important to have a great vision for you to be successful on the pitch simply a great vision is actually seeing things thinking of things before they actually happen so your P hasn't happened yet how can you anticipate that pass before you actually make that decision first two things to improve to have a great vision is your first touch as well as your passing abilities and I made video about these two and you can find the links in the description and also positioning is very important to have a great vision as well because you generally need to know where to be on the pitch and I also have many positional videos that you can find in my playlist how can we improvision well first of all your awareness and your area control which is shoulder checking is probably one of the most important thing to have to to have a great vision which is basically right at the moment where you're about to receive the ball and that moment what you do is very important to have a great vision how much shoulder checking are you doing or how well do you know what your teammates are going to do or how well do you know your positioning where to be on the pitch because you can have a great vision but if you're off position that's not going to help you so you need to be at the right place anyways to be able to use the vision that you have your head needs to be moving the entire time that you're playing the game so this doesn't have to be just as you're receiving the ball but it could be anytime really but it's very important to actually look back and see where your teammates are heading to also know what they are good at doing so this is a key to be a successful football player anyways but adding these shoulder checking constantly will definitely help your case so you need to be shoulder checking whether you have the ball or not or whether you're about to receive the ball or not when you shoulder check you see everything that's happening on the field where your teammates are making runs to or who is behind you from the opposition and how close are they to you or which of your teammates made a specific run to a certain part of the field and then now you have to cover and this all gives you the vision that you need and gives you the hints that where you need to be on the field and basically the clues to lead you for your your next moves because generally I know this is very tough but your decision has to be made as you are receiving the ball not after you have the ball yes you can change your decision that's no problem but most certainly those true balls that you need to be passing or those long balls that you need to be uh passing towards your teammates have to be done as you receiving the ball because you're not going to have much time to think after you receive the ball because as I said in the previous video you you will be under pressure and it's going to be a lot more challenging for you to make the decision after you have the ball already and there are few drills that I personally do all the time that really helps me out to improve my vision solo training aid where uh you attach this gadget to yourself and then as you pass the ball it gives you very little time to actually think to shoulder check it's very important to use this gadget and actually work on it quite a bit because as you pass the ball then the ball bounces and then as the ball is bouncing back I always shoulder check to get used to it or get a habit of it on the pitch because usually that will be the case when you're playing the game you won't have much time to actually shoulder check all the time but you're going to have to get used to it I know it's hard and you need to do this to give yourself that advantage on the pitch and the other things you can do is not only when you are receiving the ball but even when you are dribbling with the ball what you need to do is you need to have your head up all the time you can't be staring at the ball because when you stare at the ball as you're dribbling what happens is you have limited eyesight that's very important to have the habit of lifting your head up not look at the ball see the things that are happening on the pitch as you're dribbling with the ball uh you need to get used to doing this uh probably at the practices playing with your friends you really need to have a good habit of doing this at all times don't stare at the ball look at the pitch and see what's happening because uh that's what's going to give you a great vision and even when you're juggling with the ball try not to look at the ball and actually try to shoulder check if you can when you're juggling with the ball I know it's tough but even if you are un successful at it that's going to give you the habit of actually doing this during the game your time is very limited to actually shoulder check make the decisions when you're playing the next thing is actually knowing and understanding in your teammates so this is kind of like a cheating version of vision because it's not really Vision but it's more of a memorizing of what your teammates are going to do even one of the best players who have great vision um you might think that when you're watching their games oh they have great vision look at that pass yes obviously they have great vision they shoulder check all the time and they do all that stuff but most the time they know what their teammates are capable off let's say for myself before every game I'll go tell my teammates play my feet because I'm a slow player if they pass me a true balls uh they know and I know that I'm not going to be able to get to the ball before the opposition most likely is that a good Vision maybe yes but at the same time that's also knowing and understanding your teammate and slightly cheating basically same as me so like me knowing my teammates gives me huge advantage on the pitch because I know which teammates are making a wide runs which are fast this all gives me idea of what my next move is going to be so when I receive the ball I don't have to have a great vision to do that but if I know a player from my teammate is going to make a wide run I'm going to receive the ball quickly lift my head up I will always lift my head up as soon as I receive the ball I'm going to send along through wall to my teammate who's making a wide run but if I didn't know my teammate I might think that he's not going to make a wide run I might think he's going to make a run behind the defender so that's the importance of knowing and understanding your teammate so if I know my teammate's movement and then I send that long ball and it just worked out and people watching it probably will think oh look at his vision but it's not really the vision I'll take it anyways as a good Vision but it's it goes together knowing and understanding your teammates as well as uh having a great vision so keep that in mind and have both not just one so remember to learn and understand your teammates from A to Z as well as always shoulder check because these two attributes really go together because this is when vision and chemistry gets together and you end
