Mike is hitting 30... the dude just does content... it wouldn't surprise me if he only does side hustles

How the hell did "Mike" even build a platform? Like, what idiot even watches his shit and especially back then when the production quality was probably worse.

Mike lies about many things, but the Neuer message is very clearly real. I've stood over footballers (Jose Reyes RIP was very difficult, could barely speak english at the time let alone promote golf vacations) and musicians doing similar before while working in marketing roles, and if you read the full german text Mike sent, it's very a clearly a 'My glove sponsors told me to send you a pair and a good wishes message because you are getting a lot of hits on german youtube' type message rather than him reaching out to Mike completely out of the blue.

I was a semi pro centre back for years. I captained my team to 4 trophies throughout the years. First time i've seen Modern goalkeeper. I could tell he ain't no professional 😂😂

He had a video previous to the RB video that was titled or had in the thumbnail 'my first pro contract' that I think he deleted. I love the misspelled Neuer post and the GK coach being held hostage. You can tell from his content, he's not even a remotely serious GK.

aren't both neuer and the guy german? why would he write the DM in english?

the dude is now playing in the pique laugue lol

Hey Mack! Great to see you back! I came across some photos of you when I was shooting for the Rowdies. Let me know if you ever need them. Love the content and insight as always!

I don’t think you messed up. Content creators each have their own “sell”. The most successful GKs on UA-cam aren’t pro players (Ben Foster excluded) and couldn’t be due to the time it takes to be a pro (and content creator). That said, I do think the algorithm has moved massively in the click-bait direction as informative / instructional videos now get a 10th of the audience they used to 😢 Several grassroots GK have made a success of go-pro in the goal, which surprises me since I find it hard to take away any secrets of success from such a limited viewing angle. Keep going with the great uploads!

the man is back, record set straight yessir

New post lets go🔥

I'm glad this video showed up on my feed because man do you lose track of many of the smaller channels when you're subscribed to so many people. I remember you having some level-headed, direct and honest opinions. Nothing over the top, overly positive, overly negative - just balance. It's the same as I remember, nice. Given the content of UA-cam, if you would like to promote football and goalkeeping to the younger audience, I believe that you would at least need to go to a pitch and show some drills. Best if you could have some children/teenagers with you. Kids are used to teachers, kids are used to other kids so that familiarity would definitely help. I've seen some academies of sorts in Poland where I live where a skillful "coach"? teaches kids/teenagers how to dribble, use skills. I am not sure whether it is professional, but definitely some activity. Something that makes you grow on the side or for kids who aspire to join professional academies. I am not saying to kidnap kids from your neighbours, but there are definitely ways to create a small school of goalkeeping and how to create videos based on that. On the other hand having this reaction type of content, especially discussions, monologues. That's more for the likes of me and I appreciate your videos. I'll never be a goalkeeper, too old and fat anyway, but I was always very passionate about football so hearing more in depth in a conversation like style about football and its secrets, sounds great. Just may not be that popular. I'm glad that you have over 8k subcribers, you deserve that. Regarding Modern Goalkeeper, the cycle of views continues, good for you and GkGoluremi. It's just funny how this guy attacks GKGoluremi specifcally trying to undermine his credentials. Given that he is only a social media content creator, not a pro keeper, fuck me that's some ego and irony ^^. It sounds like a slip on his side to be honest because he tries to maintain this positive, honest personality, but he didn't keep his composure and attacked. A massive liar and egoist.

Yea Mike is a liar. He says learn from mistakes and he still is putting in similar content none stop.

this feels like an repost for some reason 😂

Goal kick tutorial?

Can you please make a video on how to deal with stress before games

You are underrated af, love from italy ❤

Yo yo yooooooo

i’m probably not better than modern goalkeeping in his abilities but for sure you can tell he just does training videos instead of playing as those 2 goals were both avoidable and decent saves, i play with players from England 6 aside, my technique isn’t the best i be honest but i think i’m very great at understanding the game and knowing where the ball moves which make me a great shot stopper and same with the other keeper i play/train with

GKGOLUREMI I feel was verh harsh just due to ModerGoalkeeping claiming he was getting pro team trials and always claims he's a professional, so I believe Goluremi critiqued him as if he was a pro.

7:30 The reason Goulremi is so mad with mike isint because hes bad in goal, he even says hes solid later in the video, but he says hes a professional which would mean he would have to have that experience to know not to cheat to one side. Good video though nice to have another Goalkeeping channel i can watch.

I love your videos!! Keep it up. I too am a fellow goalkeeper. I started playing at 10, and I am now 12. always loved your videos and learned about Modern Goalkeeping early. I always wished for a goalkeeper like you to make a match analysis on my games.

"Its just a lack of experience" as an argument kinda falls on its face considering Mike claims he had an offer for the Russian Premier league. Someone "good enough for the Russian Prem", who sells merch based on being as good as the Pros, just doesn't get that slack.

Yes, but you're not remembering the fact that Mike plays himself off as a pro

18:33 yeah that's the context I think you're missing. this guy mike always talking about being a pro, training as a pro, but really just disrespectfully faking being a pro. so at the very least you have to criticize him at a "pro" standard

the natural synergy between macklin and tyler is always so cool to see

The analasis would be correct if he was starting out or count as an amature goalie, but he calls himself a professional with a professional contract, pretty sure he made a video where he just went to a russian pro club where he got a "contract" even though he was there to just advertise...

the problem is, Mike says hes a professional and constantly says he gets offers from clubs to play for them, which just isnt true

The context you’re missing is that Mike brags he’s a pro. He brags he’s getting all these contract offers and giving out advice like he’s a pro. He’s making amateur mistakes and calling himself a pro. If you critique him as a pro it’s hilarious how bad he is. If you critique him as an amateur, he’s got a good baseline athletically though he is out of shape. The thing is, as a I mentioned in the first bit, he is not a pro. He should be judged as a weirdo talking a big game when it’s obvious he’s only doing it to pretend to be relevant in his social media online bubble.

My thoughts (If you want my qualifications as a GK, you can click my channel and watch my recent highlights): Goal 1 (1:36): Correct decision to come forward, but should not have committed to the ball. Mike should have noticed the #9 as an option and not fully committed because of that player. Should have broken down a little short of the 6 and trusted his reactions. Mike's defender is off balance, so Mike did a good job of recognizing this and coming out. Because of their balance, it's not reasonable to believe that defender would be able to close the space between himself and the striker in time to affect the play. Additionally, the three defenders dropping back to the line shows me the lack of trust they have in Mike, a poor reflection of this team's chemistry. Goal 2 (3:14): I mostly agree with Mac. Loading on the leg is fine, but Mike needs to have enough balance to react to that change. Had the ball deflected off a defender to go to Mike's left, would Goluremi still have the same criticism? Reading the striker is a part of goalkeeping, sometimes you just get it wrong. Once Mike realises he read wrong, that should have been a foot save. I think recognizing that as a foot save is the experience issue. Foot saves aren't pretty and it's not normal to train them, but it would have been the correct decision in this situation to keep the ball out of the net. Goal 3 (8:41): Disgusted to see the defender #7 give up so easily and release pressure. As for Mike, this shot is saveable, I would argue his legs are too far apart when he's set. You can see he's expecting a higher shot, so when the shot comes, he isn't able to get enough lateral power. Look at 8:38 - Mike kicks his left leg inside instead of pushing off of it, which he can't do because of his set position, causing his dive to go nowhere and making it impossible to shoot that left hand out and down to meet the ball. With no power through the leg, Mike fell, not dove. With how close he was, had he got enough power through that left leg, he definitely could have saved it. Goal 4 (8:46): Yes, it's fair to blame the defenders, but I also assume Mike's lack of experience makes him a very poor communicater and organizer. Defenders are ultimately responsible for their positioning, but through all these goals, Mike doesn't seem to know how to help them. End of the day, it is a good goal and it's unreasonable to blame Mike. Props to him for even trying to save that. Goal 5 (9:21): Never blame a GK for giving up a PK. Goal 6 (9:46): Defender should be glad this is the last game and they're already out of the tourney. He's off my roster and getting spit on in the locker room. Save 1 (10:10): I agree with Mac. Though I've always called them ECNL saves. Save 2 (14:10): Good decision. Job done, no complaints. Goal 7 (14:37): Lazy defenders again and I agree with Mac. I think the prediction is fine here, but Mike could have been another step or two higher. Passing (16:07): Fully agree with Goluremi and Mac. Mike trains saves, not goalkeeping. Goal 8 (16:41): Agree with both Goluremi and Mac. At this point in the tourney, I assume Mike and team have given up all hope, so I'm not surprised he's getting lazy and careless. Based on what we've seen from his training, I'm also going to assume Mike's match fitness isn't very good, which also explains the laziness. His reaction to the rebound can also be attributed to a lack of experience. Even if his defenders have it, they're under pressure, meaning Mike shouldn't be switched off here. Even if you can defend Mike based on his experience, you shouldn't excuse his laziness. Goal 9 (20:22): Mac and Goluremi's analysis of both the situation and Mike's form are fair and accurate. I'm also attributing this to Mike being tired and beat down. He definitely looks scared of the ball, probably because he's given up at this point in the tourney. Goal 10 (21:03): I agree with Mac. Should be saved. Mike's left hand doesn't even go for the ball and the dive is backwards (look at where Mike is facing as he gets up from the shot). Same as shot #3, Mike needs to have all his power going through that left hand as it shoots out for the ball. Relying on the right hand to windmill around is way too slow and you're never going to save a shot with technique like that. Had Mike had proper technique, he would have landed on his side, not rolled over onto his stomach so just from that you can tell this is a poor effort. Mike put in commendable effort but the technique was poor. Goal 11 (21:41): Lazy defending. Needs to be closer to the ball and Mike should be telling him this. If Mike was communicating effectively and the defender just wasn't listening, then I have no problems with Mike's attempt here, other than his palms need to be turned to face the ball as he's set, not backwards or the ground. I don't think making this adjustment would have led to a save, but it's good practice in my book and definitely a technique improvement Mike could make. Goal 12 (22:16): Agree with Goluremi. Also, as Mike comes off the post when the player cuts inside, Mike could have shifted another step to his left as he's too close to his near post when the ball is shot, but it's not fair to blame Mike for this goal and his effort was fair. My final thoughts: Mike is an entertainer and internet personality, not a role model or educator. When it comes to Mike's abilities as a goalkeeper, I think Goluremi has a good message of "don't listen to this guy, you don't want to be like him", but I do respect Mike as an influencer. He makes entertaining content, which is the reason why he is so successful. Mike needs to take a look around him and recognize that he's not respected by other goalkeepers. The 12 year olds in his comments telling him he's the GOAT are not qualified to do so and if that's where Mike goes to feed his ego, I feel sorry for him.

Have to disagree on the inexperience we he was accused to be "lazy". If you are not playing at a pro level, you are well aware that your defender with the ball inside your box is often more dangerous than than the enemy :D I never played at a super high level, and I know that if my teammates are with the ball inside the box not trying to kick it away, I should be ready for what's coming

I have very fast reactions. That alone made me an okay keeper (at Sunday league level, not pro lol), there's so much more to it though. Closing the ball down and keeping good angles. Have to be very brave to be a good goalkeeper.

Mike isn't that bad He just have really annoying personality and things he deserves to be professional and is better than some pros

W vid bro keep up the good work🔥I love the long form content and your analyzing really helps me learn and improve in goal

Higuita made this save in the world cup lmao

VAMOSSSS

Great power. I’m not a keeper but this is really cool!

Only player on the field to be the only one playing their position, Only player on the field to constantly have the opposition fans shouting abuse at you from behind your goal, Only player on the field who gets criticised for every mistake they make, The loneliest position in football.
