SoccerCoachTV - Organizing Your Defensive Wall.

for more great drills visit soccerclinics.com the world's largest coaching website you're going to give away free kicks period that's going to happen the challenge is can we minimize the threat to the free kicks that we do concede and being organized is one way that we can not totally ensure it but certainly cut the cut the danger down a little bit do you agree with that how long do we get how long do we get to organize we give a free kick on the edge of the box how many seconds does it take for us should it take for us to organize a war no longer in five right if we know what we're doing you can tell teams that are not prepared where they have no clue who's in the war okay so just like us on saturday pre-determined who's number one who's number two who's number three and four and five no more than five players in the wall but it's critical to also have a player who threatens the ball so a maximum of five in the war but also another player who threatens the short ball in cases anyway between this cone and the end line we need one man in the wall okay one man anywhere further up between these two cones two men is a good gauge okay from here to there anyway around here three men literally four men around the d five men yes yes you agree with that okay so let's assume get me the ball here yeah here we go let's assume we got a free kick right here johnny come on son on the ball free kick right here you want four men in the walls get your four men in the wall okay are you happy with four here yeah okay good now setting up your wall we're looking at we want at least one player past the post he should not be in line with the post and the ball we should have at least one player outside the post watch i'm going to ask johnny yeah i'm going to ask johnny to blast the ball not to take a shot but blast the ball at the wall and i want to see i want to see listen up i gotta say as the coach hey do you have the right people in the wall you know cover any dangerous part right your privates but what i'm saying is listen if you're going to be the guy who's going to do this and turn around is afraid of the ball i'd rather find that out before the game wouldn't agree yeah if you're not prepared to take one for the team let me know we'll put somebody in there i don't want to hurt are you ready hey there we are now i'm going to go home tonight and i'm going to look at that video and what i'm going to say in that video is hey a very important time in the game there's a minute left on the clock we're up one nil we've given a bad free kick away here and these are the guys i'm relying on and when the guy blasted the ball exactly at the wall what did we do you cannot hey you cannot do in the game you have to i have to have the confidence as a coach that you're going to take one for the team if you're not prepared to tell me now and i'll pick another guy who is already got the mark on my back this could not happen on saturday understand that yeah one of the dangers the goalkeeper just happened right there one of the dangers the goalkeeper setting up the wall is he's giving him instructions players turn around to see what he wants and what might happen bang free kick so watch carefully nikki come in here and you're screaming and shouting and everything watch carefully all you need to do okay from your position as a goalkeeper you don't need to be screaming shouting left right left right you watch me you're going to tell him to slide over or hold okay watch me as the goalkeeper i want to pass the post a little bit more don't look at me you see my hand all i want to do is that and then that you see that that's all you need to do hand signals so and the final thing guys we've got our four players in the wall here but we also need a threatening player on the ball okay so he's not attached to the wall he's alongside the wall he's in a sprinter position and your job is to go and throw your body on that ball like a human hand grenade you know what i'm saying oh yeah you're going in there to make sure there's no short pass and you close anything down it's dangerous guys we'll on on wednesday we'll get into your positioning behind the ball so we're getting in here and marking vital spaces in behind the ball but one thing if you are make sure that you are in line with the post so if it comes you know you're not outside you're not defending outside the post in here where it goes in you take a line from that post with the ball so you can stop any ball coming into the back post does that make sense yeah so we're framing the goal i'm gonna make it easy for you guys knock the ball around if you go knock a ball around the square anywhere you want move around you got five seconds to get organized move around move around move around charlie come on get your feet going get your feet going three let's get it back off quicker back off quicker threaten the ball johnny you're threatening the ball this way this way stop that's all you need to do so they're not turning around quickly bang take a position look at the back post can you see the back post you don't want to be here and leaving that back post open for a shot okay in a five-man wall you're always number one you're always number two yours number three yours number four yours number five that only applies okay um if we have five men in a wall are four men in the wall all right all right after that when we start getting out wider we don't really need a big men out here we need them in there don't we yeah yeah but we do need that big man here for that bent ball that's coming in into the crossbar so let me have a look if we need one man in the wall it's always going to be you either side if we need two it's always going to be you three it's you three if we need more than that this is a five-man wall all right does that make sense but this we need to know before we kick off on a saturday what your roles are all right so am i out and you're you're closing the ball ready knock the ball around quickly on anything that's not before i can just stay in the middle yes all right closest to the ball guys you've got to pay there you're going to pay there stop stop stop stop stop you got to be there as quick as you can you can't get there before you 10 yards let's go 10 yards organize organize play a short one play a short one to you're ready johnny be ready go johnny
