    Described by leading Directors as the Youth Soccer Bible, and endorsed by coaches at Manchester United, COACHING OUTSIDE THE BOX: Changing the Mindset in Youth Soccer is having a profound effect on the psyche of vast numbers of coaches and parents throughout the U.S. Paul Mairs and Richard Shaw grew up in the soccer hotbed of North West England playing against the likes of David Beckham, Paul Scholes, and Steven Gerrard.

Paul continued his playing career in England and became heavily involved in youth development while gaining his Master’s degree and pursuing research in sport science. Furthermore, after developing young players both in Europe and the U.S. for over 15 years and travelling to various countries to research coaching methods and philosophies together they have collectively acquired valuable insight and knowledge. “Any parent whose child is playing youth soccer in the U.S. must read this book as the information is going to have a powerful impact on your child’s experiences, development, and ultimately their success in the sport.

  • Manchester United : Could Robin Van Persie Leave Old Trafford?
    Manchester United : Could Robin van Persie Leave Old Trafford? Author : Robert D. Cobb MANCHESTER (UK) – According to media reports, Dutch talisman Robin van Persie is unhappy at Manchester United, could he be on his way out of Old Trafford? van Persie, who left long-time adversary, Arsenal, to join United for £24 million (£22.5 million, plus an extra £1.5 million if United wins either a EPL title or UEFA crown) is reportedly unhappy with new manager David Moyes and his training methods. Known to be both injury-prone and brittle during his tenure with the Gunners, the Dutch striker helped lead United to it’s 20th EPL crown, has all but replaced Wayne Rooney as top dog at Old Trafford. The former PFA Player Of The Year scored 28 goals in 40 appearances for the Red Devils his first year under Sir Alex Ferguson at United. While this is all mild speculation and unconfirmed, if van Persie is unhappy now, just imagine how he will be when he comes to discover that Moyes is no Ferguson and that United may be on their way down as a top club, thanks to rivals Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham and the fore-mentioned Gunners making moves during the transfer period. While United would add former Everton midfielder Marouane Fellani and Penarol defender Guillermo Varela, Old Trafford is not the so-called “Theater Of Dreams” anymore thanks to a disgruntled Rooney wishing to move to Stamford Bridge, Ferguson gone and rival clubs closing the gap on them, could lend some credibility to van Persie’s alleged remarks about Moyes.

Players like Johan Cruyff, Ruud Gullit, Marco van Basten and Dennis Bergkamp, and more recently Ruud van Nistelrooy, Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie, have long set a standard for exciting, creative play. In the 1980's and '90's The Netherlands provided the soccer world with entertaining teams and players. Recent Dutch soccer success includes semifinal appearances at the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000 and 2004, a quarter final appearance in the 2008 European Championships, as well as reaching the Round of 16 at the 2006 World Cup, and the Dutch national team is usually always in the top 10 in the FIFA World Rankings. The on-field success of Dutch soccer is mirrored by the world-renowned KNVB coaching Academy. At its foundation stands Rinus Michels, the man who "invented" Total Soccer in the '70s. His ideas are the basis of this camp. Small Nation, Great soccer vision The Netherlands is small in size, but Dutch soccer is famous around the world. For the past 30 years the Dutch have played a vital role in international soccer. The national team has recorded astonishing successes in the European Championship and World Cups. The top Dutch soccer clubs have shown well in every major European Cup competition, while Dutch players have long filled the rosters of the most popular European clubs.

  • Uefa.Com Users' Team of the Year 2007 Revealed
    Media Release Date: 18/01/2008 Communiqué aux médias No. 006 Medien-Mitteilung uefa.com users’ Team of the Year 2007 revealed AC Milan players rewarded in poll The uefa.com users’ Team of 2007 has been announced, with UEFA Champions League winners AC Milan having the most players in this year’s selection. Over 3.75 million votes were cast by 277,985 individual uefa.com users in the poll. The dream dozen contains just two survivors from last year’s team along with five newcomers. Milan’s trio includes central defender Alessandro Nesta, who was also selected in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and left midfield player Clarence Seedorf, who also appeared in the 2002 team. Colleague Kaká with 220,333 votes received the highest number of votes overall and is selected for a second successive year, this time as attacking midfielder. Also surviving from last year’s team is Steven Gerrard, who is selected for a third time, and is the only player from beaten UEFA Champions League finalists Liverpool FC to feature. English clubs are to the fore, though, with John Terry – selected in 2005 – and newcomer Didier Drogba from Chelsea FC joined by Cristiano Ronaldo, whose previous selection came in 2004. His Manchester United FC coach Sir Alex Ferguson is perhaps belatedly selected for the first time, recognition of his achievement in guiding his team a ninth Premier League title under his stewardship. Another somewhat belated newcomer is Real Madrid CF goalkeeper Iker Casillas, while Sevilla FC right-back Daniel Alves, FC Barcelona left-back Eric Abidal and FC Internazionale Milano striker Zlatan Ibrahimović are also selected for the first time.
