194 Footballers: How To Ensure Playing Out Of Position Is A Walk In The Park

Footballers - how do you view the coach or manager asking you to play out of position? Negatively as a threat or positively as a challenge?  In today’s episode, the 3rd of a 10 part series, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on why some footballers gravitate to the negative side and how they can help themselves, their team-mates, coach and club better.  Your perception of your situation is one avenue I explore, alongside judgement, and how you judge yourself or others.  Ego is another area as well as how a person with a threat mindset approaches this situation.  The solutions, relate to adopting a challenge mindset, seeing playing out of position as a learning experience and trying to keep your sense of humour.
