The best thing about watching famous soccer players is possibly the ability to learn from them to improve your own soccer performance. And you don't need a private training session with a global superstar to develop, you just need to follow a very wise saying that I was once taught was, in many words, 'you become what you admire'. If you admire someone, be it a soccer player or not, it is very likely that you will become like that ยอดนักเตะตำนาน their traits in yourself. So in this case, if you constantly observe a certain player and focus on his abilities, you will naturally want to put them into action and gradually you will become more like him. I'm not suggesting that you too will become a legendary player, but at your own level you can practice what they show you and eventually it will work!
This is so true that some goalkeeping coaches tell young goalkeepers to imagine themselves as their favorite goalkeeper so they can adopt his skills and copy his success to their own level. One of the greatest goalkeepers of all time is David Seaman (ex Arsenal and England), who was not only an excellent blocker, but also had tremendous presence, dominance and ability to make cross passes. Even if a young goalkeeper is not his height (6ft 4), he can still imagine himself playing as Seaman and will have more confidence to prevail on the field. Of course it doesn't have to be Seaman, there are Gianluigi Buffon, Gordon Banks, Peter Shilton, Van der Sar. I could go on and on with a list of celebrity goalkeepers.
For a defender, I think that the courage and willingness to throw the body in the path of the ball or at the feet of a striker to prevent him from scoring are very admirable qualities, along with the pace and the head, for example. If these skills can be found in one of the famous soccer players (past and present) positioned in defense, such as John Terry, Rio Ferdinand, Vidic and Tony Adams, then these things can be respected and learned from them. Just observing them is helpful, while putting them into practice is what will ultimately make a young player one of your favorite celebrity soccer players on a lesser scale.
Depending on the role within midfield, different skills are required. For example, highly accurate tackles and passes are essential for a held midfielder, while speed, deception and centering ability are useful skills for a winger. Regardless of these differences, young players may look at famous footballers they like and copy their skills. Patrick Vieira, Cristiano Ronaldo, Marc Overmars, Cesc Fabregas, Frank Lampard and David Beckham could be good examples of midfielders that you can learn from just by looking, this is perhaps the easiest and most fun way to improve football performance!
When it comes to strikers, Ian Wright, Michael Owen, Thierry Henry, Garry Lineker, Dennis Bergkamp, Pele and Alan Shearer are undoubtedly good examples for different reasons: some for their scoring records and others for their creativity and numerous assists. These top players - and household names - are great people to look to to increase your own ability to enter the correct areas and work on the finish simply by observing and copying technique.
Finally, having given some examples of famous footballers and suggested how you can learn just by looking at them, it is also possible to suggest other ways to learn from them. If the saying is true, 'you become what you admire', then reading about these legendary players, imagining yourself playing like them, and generally taking a real interest in them is sure to improve your performance!
