The game doesn’t tell players what to do.
It presents information.
The challenge isn’t just making decisions.
It’s recognising what matters before the decision is made.

Football doesn’t provide answers.
It provides problems.
Are we helping players recognise information, or simply giving them solutions?
My latest reflection:

A session can be successful and still have limited transfer.
If players don’t need to search for information in training, what happens when they have to search in the game?

Sometimes players learn how to succeed in the practice… not the game.
The structure becomes predictable.
The next action becomes obvious.
So performance improves, but adaptation disappears.

“Play quicker” is common coaching language in football.
But sometimes players become so focused on speed that they stop searching for better solutions.
Fast decisions aren’t always good decisions.

I’ve stopped a session before to point something out.
To me, it was obvious.
But the player didn’t see it.
It wasn’t a bad decision.
They simply didn’t perceive it.

In training, the solution can become obvious quite quickly.
The challenge is recognising it when it isn’t.

Something I’ve noticed in training, players don’t always choose the best option.
It’s just the one they see first.
That tends to look very different in matches.
Put a few thoughts down here:

Something I’ve noticed in training, players don’t always choose the best option.
They go with what they recognise first.

Sessions can look good and still not transfer.
Players succeed in the practice.
But the behaviour doesn’t appear in the match.
Why that happens and what to look for instead.

🫶 Genk's second choice goalkeeper Brent Stevens saved a penalty on his professional debut yesterday, the same week he lost his father. ❤️
The opposition fans even applauded him. This is why football is such a special sport. 👏
