He forgot to include āBayesian priorsā in his stream of horseshit which I didnāt read.

He is so wrong it is funny. It is the fact that TK is basically a perfect technician that allows him to move that way.
What buys him the space? His touch
Iām sure heāll see the error of his ways once a few lads point them out to him. Heāll apologise for being wrong before the end of the day.

England are competitive now in soccer as they realised the need to focus more on the technical side of the sport instead of running around kicking lumps out of each other in games based mayhem.
Be sure to do a deep-dive on proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation beforehand

Some things are not meant to be analysed, they are not meant to be understood, they are only meant to make grown men cry tears of wonder. Some grown men donāt get that.

You canāt coach what he done anyway. His balance is amazing. His natural build allows him to do it.
Street, ball, wall, childish imagination, dreams, other worldliness.
Surprisingly (to myself, because Iām not sure Iāve ever said this before), Iām almost coming down on the side of Kev here.
Not fully whole-hearted behind all the waffle he said but I do think that the particular skillset that Kelly showed in that moment was all instinct where he had to improvise to get around an opponent. That instinct is definitely honed in matches and training against other players too.
Obviously Kellyās unbelievable touch probably originated in a ball wall or somewhere but the evading of opponents is definitely something you learn from going up against opposition.
I actually thought it was an odd enough comment from Dalo at the time.

When he scored that goal most people were thinking to themselves āwhat brilliant eyesight he showed there!ā

āI saw a couple of red bodies in front of me and I just had to kind of avoid them,ā Kelly said afterwards. āI was going to take my point. Often goals are made by the defender rather than yourself. You donāt take the ball thinking, āIām going to score a goal hereā. You take whatās in front of you really.
āSo when the defender came, I didnāt want to get blocked down so I had to sidestep him. And then another defender came and I had to sidestep again. And once youāre through, you have to have a rattle off the goal. I was fortunate enough that it hit the back of the net.
Of course it was instinctive, if Kev was given a thousand years to waffle he couldnāt coach that into someone. Heās jumping on a split-second Dalo comment to justify his own rĆ”imĆ©is

The best hurlers, the ones you pay to watch, look like they see things in slow motion, Kelly looked like that at least three times yesterday for scores
I donāt think thatās ball alley stuff, itās more the 10 thousand hours principle allied to incredible natural ability

So true but itās his perfect batted touch down off the hurley that carries him into the situation to flick it past the keeper.
Itās like with Messi, all those small perfect touches he takes where the ball is glued to create the angles to pass/shoot.
All the top guys in every field sport in the world have one thing in common, they all hone their technique on their own for hours and hours and probably much more than other competitors.
Whatās the one common thing we nearly always say when an attacker has a bad day? His touch was off. Itās the good first touch that buys them the time to do all the other stuff.

With no touch, balance wonāt matter a solid fuck

It would take a lot more than Kev to convince me that sending any young fella into the ball alley or picking it against the gable end for an hour every day wonāt have a MASSIVE positive impact on their skills for the long term

Itās a baffling position to take. I wonder if he ever did it himself. Two visits would be enough to realise what it does for you.
