Can you play the game? If so what position do you play?

This is me and a few lads trying the crossbar challenge last Sunday...

I'm the one with the yellow vest and the shaved head

I'm a striker, bit like RVP if I do say so myself. Captain of my local team, been to a couple of Arsenal Residentials in the last few years as well. Our season's finished, but at the end I hit a good run of form, scored 8 goals in 5 games. Left footed, strengths are long shots, dribbling, finishing and speed, weaknesses are stamina, heading and strength,

Centre back, Captained my last side, in the process of joining a new club (U18)...Tackling and strength are probably my best attributes, im not bad in the air either i dont think.

Weaknesses, not slow, but not exactly fast either, positioning can sometimes be off.

I'm really to be honest.

I'm really strong for my age and I'm not afraid to get stuck in, so my mates usually throw me in the centre of the park.

I played before in one local club here in Sarajevo,and I played on position of dm,I passed the ball very good,I also cut passes from opposition and I was specialist in team for that,I was good in tackling,very fast and good in a long distance shots,but I had some injuries from war and I couldn't pass medical tests to play on more professional level,there was a great risk for me to play and nobody in club wanted to take responsibility if something bad happens to me,so I had to quit!It was a great shock for me but ..!now I don't play football at all I'am just watching

I played as a Forward for my local 11 a side team. Sometimes playing on Left wing as I am left footed. We used to play on a Saturday and kick off was at 3pm most of the time. We used to train on a Wednesday for 2 hours, 1 hour of running, sprints e.t.c and then 1 hour of ball work with a 20 minute game at the end. Only played 11 a side for 2 years. In my first season we came 3rd and in the second season we won the league. Got my Middlesex County Division 2 winners medal in my trophy box. I am quite proud of that.

When I stopped playing 11 a side in 2004 I put a 5 a side team together with 7 of my mates, most of them played for the 11 aside team I played for the year before. We won the Thursday Premier Division in 2004 and 2005 at Ruislip Goals. I have a few trophies, no-where near as many as that Sof guy but I have about 10. When I look at them it brings back a lot of happy memories for me. I loved playing my football.

Im a Centre Half, Rio Ferdinand would be my ideal player to compare myself too. I prefer to sweep rather be the ball winner in the air etc, can play that sort of position too but prefer the ball at feet and spread play.

2 years ago i was playing semi pro for Massey Ferguson, on a saturday, getting a few quid every game, but have since dropped down playing to sunday league with a few of my mates due to constant injuries.

Currently out for 9 months due to Snapping my cruciate ligament.
had key hole surgery in July and have Full operation booked to get a reconstruction of my left knee on October 5th this year.

Will never be able to get back to full potential just like Micheal Owen...

The only football i play now is 5 a sides with work and im playing in goal as its ok to dive around on my knee just not kick any balls which is a pain.

I was a good rugby player but not so good at football. I have played as a centre forward, winger and central midfielder. Probably best as a central midfielder but unfortunately after 10mins I would have to be carried off with exhaustion

I model my tackling on Tony Adams
