obviously there are going to be exceptions but footballers usually tend to have awkward juggling styles, or they'll have great juggling and control but will have awkward styles on tricks like atw and others.

you only need look at the top level pros to see this is true.

and don't be stupid and argue and give examples.  no shit there are always going to be exceptions with great footballers that are great freestylers too.

Hardly ever seen any footballers with awkward juggling styles...


Mainly true, but they wont really be good at the skills with style because they dont practice much.

I once met a great freestyler on vacation , he had some amazing skills. But then I played a simple match with him and he sucked, really. He could do lots of different ATW´s but he wasn´t able to pass, shoot or juggle a ball more than 50 times.

Really weird, but nevertheless... he was a great freestyler.

It doesnt bother me to see someone trying to Fstyle if they have never played ball before.

In actual fact, its their problem, I think having a playing background is an edge, so theyre missing out.

And I have seen some very good players that have terrible juggling style, its quite sad to watch.
These well-renowned players have such great control when the ball is on the ground.....but when it comes to keepin the ball in the air, they suddenly lose all control over the damn ball ! Obviously there are some exceptions.

then ur idea of "style" is flawed.

footballers juggle to practice their touch, not to FREESTYLE.  they don't care if the ball goes up too high each touch or if they put a backspin on every touch (both of which are not great for freestyle).
