Importance of Decision Speed

In modern football speed is very important, but the most important thing is “decision speed”. Xavi Hernandez is a great example. Though he was not the fastest player, he controlled his surroundings before receiving the ball, had a perfect peripheral vision and his creativity was on a top level. This way he was able to find solutions in the game faster than any player with higher agility, acceleration or pace.

Above we give an example of how to improve this skill.

“The fastest player is not the one who runs the fastest, but the one who solves the game’s problems the fastest”

Cesar Luis Menotti
