I was an alright player altho I never had a left foot. I played centre forward for school teams and sunday league teams untill I got a trial at my hometown club Lincoln City then I moved into centre/attacking midfield the only problem there was my defending was quite poor but I made it into the second part of the trial,It was going great untill some tw*t bent my knee in half, No idea if I would of made it, probrably not coz they never asked how I was. Still playing football now but its just 5 a sides and coaching at a school.

I play RW or attacking CM. I'm very inconsistant player. I'm either the best on the pitch or the worst, on average I'd say I slightly lean to the latter. I have a lot of pace, but it burns my stamina up very quickly. I am a very good crosser but my finishing is awful. I normally just go for power. I'm awful in the air mainly due to my size but I am deceptively strong in a shoulder to shoulder tackle. I have a good right foot but I may aswell attempt a diving header than to hit the ball with my left! I have average skill, I can do simple stuff like the zidane spin and stepovers but that's about it. My main way to beat a player is to hit it past and out pace them.

In the mould of our own Andy Carroll , Tall Strong Centre Forward who holds the ball up well and likes to link up with midfielders. Scored 14 goals in our 20 game League last season.

Never played the game seriously, coming from a country where rugby and cricket used to dominate government schools (though I played wing for our school first XI hockey side back in the days when we were practically forced to take 4 sports each year [for me: rugby, cricket, hockey, cross-country running]). When I did play football I was either a left winger or a 'keeper (the latter mainly because no one else wanted to play there). Equally able with both feet, good reflexes, very quick over short distances (I was one of the fastest sprinters at school and excelled at touch rugby), but no real ability at close controlling the ball (probably due to my complete lack of training) and completely hopeless in the air (I can't jump to save my life). Being only 5'10" didn't make me a great keeper either, though I was athletic enough to make a decent enough showing. Of course, I'm 40 now and living in the Orient means I haven't kicked a ball in close on 10 years. I still play a mean game of squash or golf though.

I usually play as either a RB/LB or Defensive Midfielder, i can shot with both legs, and although i prefer the right foot, i enjoy playing on the left. My lows are: fitness< as i dont practice alot, and Headers < they drive me crazy xD
I am very good at defending, and i enjoy it alot. I do play a bit dirty but i like tough football. My short passes are not that good, but my long crosses and vision are one of the best =D
shooting: i am good at it, but i don't like to score, i prefer assists over goals.
MM in regards to professional players, i see my style as similar to that of Lucas, Mascherano and Aurelio maybe xD ! Ey up! A Canadian! Welcome fellah, and good to see yet another member representing this global following of ours. Eyyyyyyy !! Haha thank you man =D !
