Performance Profiling for Futsal

An area of strength for me is my defensive heading, although in Futsal this is not used very often it is still a big part of defending when an player tries to chip the ball into the goal or shoots from range and the ball is travelling high. You can see that this is one of my strengths from my performance wheel as i awarded myself a 9/10. Another strength would be Blocking which is a massive part of the defensive side of Futsal as the players often play in close proximity of the goal and blocking is key as if they manage to successfully get a shot off then it will most likely result in a goal considering how close the players play from the goal. You can see that i believe this to be a strength of mine as i again awarded myself a 9/10. Lastly another one of my strengths is short passing, you can see that as i gave myself a score of 8/10 for it, I am able to pass across short distances easily using different techniques and applying different speeds to the ball, this is an important component to Futsal as often the ball is passed around over short distances at different speeds and different techniques are needed to be used.

An area of weakness that i have highlighted with a score of 6/10 is Jockeying, i find it difficult move my feet in the correct way in order to manipulate the attacker into going the way i want them to. Jockeying is important in Futsal as the game is on a relatively small pitch and it is important to be able to make the attacker move to less threatening places on the pitch as well as slow them down in play when they are counter attacking for example. Another weakness that i gave myself a 6/10 for is defending set pieces, i struggle to know the correct starting position on the pitch in relation to where the set piece is, being able to defend set pieces is important as there are a lot of set pieces awarded in Futsal game and these are taken quickly under a time limit so it is important to be able to position quickly. Lastly i struggle with Footwork which i also gave myself a 6/10 for. Footwork is very important in Futsal both attacking and defending, defensively you need to be able to move your feet quickly and get into correct body positions to jockey the attacking player and correctly defend them and in attacking situations you need to have good footwork in order to work yourself into positions that you can get a shot or successful pass off.
