Attacking Soccer is the pet project of two soccer fanatics who have been playing the game since a very young age. One half of us writes from Ireland, while the other writes from Los Angeles. Our goal is to write about soccer issues that we find interesting, parts of the game that we want to tackle. You will not always find the mainstay issues covered, but you will find articles based on important issues within the game. As some additional background, we both play at a high level of soccer, and have both had the opportunity to play at a professional level.
From time to time, we will also tackle other sports that we feel we have knowledge on, although we will never claim to be experts!
This project also includes you! If you have any topics you would like us to cover, or stories you would like us to share, feel free to send us an email and we will be sure to take it into consideration. This includes any competitions your website might be running, or great articles that you find from browsing the web – we want your input.

Hi -I stumbled apon your blog and I found many of your posts quite interesting.
I have a suggestion for a topic: perhaps you could elaborate on how the sport is taught differently to youngsters in Europe than in the US. You could explain the skills and techniques that are taught there and the progression of the player’s development.
I interested in this because I live in the US and I’m a parent of 3 boys who all play soccer. While my son’s skills are pretty good, when I’ve watched videos online of European children, I’m blown away by how skilled they are at such a young age.
Here in the US, I don’t think they focus enough on developing the basic skills, must less mastering them. All 3 of are boys play club soccer, my older 2 at the competitive level – which we pay a lot money for – but when I watch the games, while the players are good, many of them just don’t have the command of the ball that seems necessary to take the game to the next level.
Hence my interest in finding out how it’s taught in the place where the sport originated. Your thoughts and observations would be much appreciated…thanks!
