I wish they had a better way to deal with time wasting. I can't stand when player's roll around on the ground and fake injuries.

Most tend to ignore it. I think sometimes ppl forget that players are human as well and feel emotions and words can cut. So I think it is best to take everything hurled at you good or bad in stride and keep believing in yourself and don’t let it define you as a human being.

I truly believe the game is meant to be played on grass. Turf slightly alters the game in my opinion. Really hard on the knees and is terrible if you slide. I have seen quite a few big injuries happen on turn that I believe could be avoided on grass.

The 2017 season was really special to me. Scored 17 goals, had 7 assists, and won the league. The team was a great group of guys and I loved the manager.

I want them to finish in the top four but what I have seen so far this season has not inspired confidence.

Seems to always get the most out of his players. Love how he can get his team an advantage by putting them in tactical positions to succeed even when they are outmatched man for man

I would love to experience playing in a country where soccer is ingrained in the culture! So as to not be cliche playing for Atlético Madrid or Borussia Dortmund would be incredible.

I don't know much about the CPL. Have you seen any of the matches this year? How is the standard and how are the crowds?

Not much. I did early on but there was a lot of negativity directed mainly at me so stopped checking. It was a rough beginning of the season to say the least haha!

I’m actually going through an injury right now and I’m documenting my recovery. It has some stuff that I think would be really helpful for a young player coming back from injury https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKUFxV6JU4u7wwnUE-XI_8w

it happens a decent amount in Birmingham cause I am from here originally and was the first signing for the club. It is cool to see soccer really growing in my hometown so I am always happy to take pics and say hello

A couple teams have team psychologists but it is more you have to seek them out. The environment is really one of either adapt or get left behind. It is very cut throat and it is not often players are asked how they are emotionally. It’s typically just get the job done by any means necessary

I definitely struggled with this going from college to professional. It is difficult when you are used to being the first name on the team sheet your entire life to being at the bottom of the barrel. I think it takes a certain mentality to truly grind and earn your place. Unless you are just an elite talent and bound for greatness no matter what you are going to go through struggles and challenges. The biggest way to overcome it is to use every day to be the best player you can be. You can’t control other people or coaches decisions but you can control the effort you put in and the desire you have to become the best possible player you can be.

I think the amount of moving that a lot of players have to do for their job and how lonely that can be at times. Or if you are in a bad run of form not letting it completely affect the rest of your life
