- The goalkeeping position has always had myths surrounding it. But are there certain things you can actually do to gain an advantage? In this video we find out if any of these myths are actually true.
Also big shoutout to @KieranBrown who was one of my inspirations for this video!

Positioning is easily the most underrated part of being a GK
Facts 🙌
So true

Maybe handling is a lil bit more
Jeah
One of my favorite goalkeepers growing up was former NASL, MISL and Canadian National Goalkeeper Tino Lettieri. Tino is 5'8" (1.73 m). He taught me to be better at positioning, to use my long legs to cover ground faster and be a more aggressive attacking the ball.
As a hockey goalie main (as well as soccer keeper), I can confirm the near post myth is 10000000% busted. In both sports, there's just too much that can go on. Yeah, you can position so that you cover more of the near post (leaving the backend exposed), but that doesn't mean the you're actually in the clear. Great video!
The thing with vaseline is:
You put it on WET gloves and just a pea size per glove.
First you wring out the gloves, put a pea size of vaseline on your gloves and you are set to go.
As gor legal or illegal: it is legal and even if not, no ref is going to notice it if you use just a pea of vaseline which helps a lot with wet balls
Good to know! I’ll definitely be giving this a try in the near future. 💪🙌
#4 it all depends on the shot to me, if its a dipping into the corner i usually use the higher hand any other i use the lower
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but the vasaline trick is something I first heard in the professional game from Shay Given. He swore by this for wet weather games.
I believe the foot save "myth" comes down to straight-up shots as opposed to 1v1s. I coach youth GKs for my local club, one of my main rules is always hands first due to the natural instinct of using their feet when the ball is coming low. Break-aways or 1v1's, you don't always have a choice.
Yeah I have the problem of sticking my leg out and it’s literally impossible to take away without training it into someones mind, no one can manage the thought process quick enough when a shots being hit at you
You’re so spot on. This is what a lot of goalkeepers do not understand. I had a Sunday league goalkeeper try abuse me on Insta because I called him a fucking idiot, simply because he’s adamant that it’s correct to just kick the ball away when it’s really just a simple scoop 🤣🤣 his argument was that the pros use their feet to make saves all the time 💀
feet are quicker and stronger

Well no need to call someone an idiot, I mean you can always tell him you gotta use your hands it’s simple 😐
@@hamzasaleh8570 big need bro.
This is such a good idea and you can literally see how much work you put into this video🔥📽 merry Christmas my brother enjoy the time with your family as much as possible
Appreciate that man! I do the best I can, hope you enjoy the content just as much as I enjoy making it. Merry Christmas and all the best 🎄🎅🏼
Actually if you are positioning both arms to your left our right side (as you would make a top corner save) you will see that you bottom hand will reach about 20/30 cm further than your top arm. So I would say that balls placed in upper area will be "easier" to reach with top arm (as you reach higher) but if it's a well placed top corner ball, you have more reach with bottom hand.
Campos is amazing, it was amazing watching him.
@Dutch Goalkeeper Regarding the Vaseline trick, I did some research on its effect on the palms and given the difference in the chemistries between the palms and the spread, I'd say DO NOT. Adding Vaseline will boost the grip of your gloves at the beginning, but it's composed of a polymeric compound that will alter the chemical composition of the latex the palms are made of, in a way that embrittles the latex (YIKES!!!!!), which means accelerated deterioration. Products like glove glu or glove wash (according to my knowledge) are typically used after a game to restore the gloves' grip, but they are OPTIONAL and there is NOTHING ILLEGAL about using them whether before of after a game. If you ask me, pour a little bit of water on the palms 2 hours before a game, and maybe a little bit of Powerade, Gatorade or any sugary sports drink on the palms shortly before the kick off and THE REF WON'T STOP YOU. Hope this helps and thanks a million for uploading the video.
Yeah you're right, 5-6 years ago when i used vaseline on my gloves i would see creases start to form and also the brittling came to play 2-4 weeks after
@@vicardi8180 Exactly! The palms need thorough care because they are the most important part of the gloves. Before you spread anything on them, double check its effect online, so that you wouldn't ruin your gloves.
Wish I saw this before I did it 😂
@@greedymaxgamer8884 It's OK, buddy! We all make mistakes, so don't beat yourself up. Next time before you try any new trick, do enough research on it to find out if it's worth trying.
Thanks to all. I was about to put Vaseline on my gloves. 😖glad i read the comment section.
thank you for this video i thing this is what i was need
As a fellow gk I would recommend using hand saves cuz if you are covering the near post
Top hand all day for top corners. It’s just that few crucial inches closer to the top corner, and can save valuable milliseconds
5’8 goalkeeper that was best in the region right here 🤙🏼 for small goalkeepers I always tell them to work on their vertical, focus positioning, and improve overall stamina so they can outpace the bigger GK brothers.
very inspirational
Cool story, liar
Merry Christmas brother, another great vid !
Merry Christmas bro! All the best :)
Yo your awesome most of these worked you are an amazing goalkeeper keep up the good work
For the first one your diving to forward trying to reach the ball instead you should dive more to the side and cut the angle of the ball off and you should save the ball 99% of the time
I’ve used glove glue and there good for having your gloves just a little more sticky for your match but they don’t make a whole lot of difference.
it also depends on the wear of gloves
Bro can you make video of "How to position well as a goalkeeper?"
That’s a good one! I’ll put some thought into it and make a video in the near future 🔥
@@DutchGoalkeeper thank you 🥀
Another banger video 🔥
Vaseline should been used for wet conditions. You will see the grip is perfect 🤩
That's a great idea! I'm definitely considering starting to use it after this video hahaha!
@@DutchGoalkeeper hey if your reading this can you give me more tip on goalkeeping o have been really good at goalkeeper I somethings go to the net every one couldn’t even pass well some only like 2 I will get my new gloves and glove glu cuz my old one is broken I need to get better people isn’t giving me respect now also being a defender a bit sucks cuz... o got megged lots of time
Hi, friend, I'm a goalkeeper and I'm 20 years old. I'm lousy at covering up. What do you recommend I do first to improve my reflexes and save balls?
myth 4 depends very much on the situation, if it is a 1v1 its better to go with hands, but when it is a raction save close to you on the ground it is usually better for me to go with feet
In my opinion, for myth number 3, deciding which hand to reach with depends on the height of the ball
for myth 4, yes this is like half a year late, my personal opinion is if the ball is above the top shoulder when you take your dive, top hand, otherwise bottom hand, ofc you can take a lower dive with this school of thought to force a top hand save, but you sacrifice some height and should be wary when facing a ball that is dipping, and should only be used with complete confidence when closer to your own goal line. With myth 1, how would they know if you put anything on your goves, like you could spread honey on them and no one would know, its not like they are not grippy to begin with. and remember at the end of the day, save is save.
Video is awesome, and I know amount of preperation and work put in every video, but there is one complain. In myth where you put ond the test using your feet to save shoots vs your hands I thinck that bigger polemics for that are when we have low shots close to our body and if in that situazion is better to use legs or hands, something like futsal goalies do, or like Ter Stagen or Neuer
Appreciate that bro! It does but I try to make the best content I can, glad you enjoyed. Yeh in my opinion regarding foot saves vs hand saves is a difficult thing but as long as you save the ball that's what matters.
I’m my teams main GK but I’m also top 5 in outfielders so we had to substitute new keepers in and someone who is about 5’1” nearly got a shut out in an incredibly hard game with very little training. Hight is certainly helpful but the main advantage is being able to move quickly and position yourself
You're right bro
Techniques matters
How old is the guy
Also, you don't need to be tall to be a good keeper! However, you significantly reduce your chances of ever going pro. Can be world class, but if someone is taller they'll most likely get the attention of scouts. I'm 5'7" and played D1 here in the states, but any time I went to trials or talked with scouts was told i had the skill, but was simply too short.
That's poor from the academy I'm a 5'8.75 gk and in pompey academy
Bruh I'm 5'7" too😞
I am a defender but i really love ur videos and i love goalkeepers too
Btw you should also move around to save too And makes it much easier to save.
Bro, I'm one of the best gk from u15 fmf md, but as all good things have a bad side, I don't have pro gloves. But I continue. I look at you and learn better things. Can you pls make a video with more effective saves from the corner.
Shoutout from Poland, im going to become a gk myself. When i look at you im thinking about you being a new Pasveer
RE - Vaseline on gloves. Don't think it's illegal as such, but I have heard that it will degrade the latex at an increased rate due to the chemical structure and reactions. I use KeeperBalm on my sons gloves, similar sort of thing, but (apparently), uses latex friendly ingredients to prolong the life of the gloves. Must say that I tend to agree, as we only go through a couple of pairs a year. He trains/plays 4 to 5 times per week on various natural and artificial surfaces, so they are in use quite a lot
I like your shorts 🙌
Yes bro, another sick vid!!!
Thanks mate! Appreciate it as always, glad you enjoyed :)
I use both hands for saves high and low just for security
3:17 Yes putting Glove Glu is actually legal
putting Vaseline is a whole another level.
Im pretty sure what people mean by never be beaten at near post,
If the opponent is staring the keeper right in the face and they shoot towards the keeper, you should not concede a goal whatsoever.
One of my favorite UA-cam GK’s GK goulremi made a good point on not being beat near post, he said your job is to not be beat doesn’t matter where it is so people who don’t know what there talking about will say oh don’t get beat near post but they have no clue.
i've personally used many brands ( Rinat , RG , Puma , Reuch , Uhlsport ) but never used T1tan and i am thinking of trying them out what do you think ?
Any tips for becoming a GK after playing CM for life? It just seems like GK could become good for me because ive always had amazing reflexes.
I’m 5’4 and I’m nuts at goalkeeper a person took 20 goals on me on a actually football pitch and I saved 18
I'm 5,4 aswell and I'm 15 just got a personal goalkeeper coach starting next week
Lucky
Watch from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 take love bro
Ma boi how did you measure those angles lmaoo🤣
Your my favorite goalkeeper
No with vaseline, Shay Given used to use vaseline then pour water over his gloves
Best tip ever lol just save the ball 😂
OP1GK once said "You use your underarm (bottom hand) for having more distance and overarm (top hand) to have more height"
how u not verified but verified on tiktok. also i am a goalkeeper watching this and these vids really really help me. thank you soo much bro☺
Great video!
The problem with near post shots is if they are hit hard enough they have less distance to travel to the goal? Simple physics
Ashlyn Harris, of NY/NJ Gotham FC in the NWSL, actually had a jar of Vaseline next to her water bottle and towel at a game in Orlando... Never saw her use it, but it was there.
Kalle johnsson uses vaseline in games, he actually puts some on the post before kick-off
SHH op je mik
I think as long as you can somehow touch the cross bar you’ll be ok ( coming from a 5,5 keeper at a varsity level)
Agree but height and good vertical help alot, coz you can be further off the line
Shay given was the goalkeeper who came up with the vasteline trick so since he used it in the premier league it should be legal or refs just don’t care 🤷♂️
I'm a striker but I still love to watch your vids
SAME HERE !!!
When a stricker is near you the best way is to always stay on your toes which help in more effiecent dives and jumpes
Really great video, but an unimportant mistake is that courtois is not the tallest goalkeeper. It is actually Bloch Jorgensen
Its Donarumma
5:50 calculated
Honestly one of the weirdest things that’s ever happened to me as a goalkeeper 😂😂
Awesome video!
Thanks :)
Vaseline should be legal, cus u can put water, grip spray on ur gloves, so why not vaseline?
Fair enough! I have to say i’ve never actually had a referee check my gloves or anything so🤷🏼♂️
@@DutchGoalkeeper Ye bro but these kind of things the point of perfecting handling or skill. Like if you are going to allow that then you may as well allow players to get boots that make you shoot with power or get a ball that is lighter. Yes it is helpful but its a bit like cheating and defeats the point of skill and training if you get what i mean
@@Ol1vierMazur alot of things are legal on shoes
The swedish goalkeeper who plays for fck kalle johnsson uses vaseline in the pro games
When you put vaseline you should put water on it it well be better than just vaseline
Loved the video bro
Appreciate it bro! 🙌🙏
Is it true that keeping with wet hands can help to block balls easier?
im a new goalie and i struggle a bit with hand saves but being incredibly good with making footsaves is this a problem
Pickford is a great keeper even though he's comparatively shorter than most keepers
Who am I kidding?
@Dutch Goalkeeper Kalle johnsson uses vaseline in games, he actually puts some on the post before kick-off.
Jij bent zo goed koen
Dutch goalkeeper, should I get black beast 2.0 or white beast 2.0 T1TAN gloves
Good one
in 1v1s i stretch my hands back incase i need to react fast because when ur hand is in a normal or front position mast chances are its going through it
Who do u think is the best goalkeeper
I’m 16. 4’3 feet tall, i’m a GK and save more than 120 shoots. 💀💀
That vaseline one saved me
merry christmas
Merry Christmas 🎄🎅🏼
The hands vs feet is one I get a lot. I was told that I used my feet too much when I was younger then when I became the first choice they said that i was right when I said that it quicker to move a foot a metre than a hand 2.
Do titans run out of grip fast?
Your sooo good
Vaseline is definitely legal cz the Netherlands goalkeeper smudged Vaseline all his post and he was one of the top performing goalkeepers
You can still be a futsal or football 7 goalkeeper if you are short.
What gloves do you have
Lol
Lmao
He he boi
Do you use finger protection or not?
Great vid, unpopular opinion glove glu or other grip upgraders are overrated. why do you need such a strong grip , if you have good gloves your grip should be strong enough and also you will probably reflect the ball in most saves
What gloves or brand of gloves are you using in the vídeo?
I use T1TAN!
@@DutchGoalkeeperthanks could i ask you another question ?
@@DutchGoalkeeper could you perhaps put a link here to the gloves you use?
Hi from Hungary 🇭🇺🇭🇺
Hello from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 😊
2.10 nahhh bro thats too much of vaseline😂 if you put half of it, it will not be easy to detect and also if you spread it well, grip will be even better!
Is catching the better or parry the ball to a non dangerous area?
You are such a pro that balls automatically end up in your hands 😂😂😂
In 1v1 situations I put my leg down incase they put it low and put my hands up
what gloves are those
3:40 not try you don’t have to be tall to be a good goalie me I am short still good at goalkeeping I saved lots of goals some passed to my defence I’m soo good that I even got goalkeeper gloves I gotta get another one mine is kinda broken when I was practising with my dad and it broke but it’s still good I need another one and also glove glu or is it glu glove idk but those are the only thing that I needed now it need more grip
Im 1.53 and 12 is it decent
Make your own spray by mixing vaselin with water
No cap Being goalie is the hardest role because you have no backup
Kepa Arrizabalaga is 6’1 3:52
Positioning to middle of the goal 🥅
When your gloves are dirty u can wash the palm with a cloth and they get sticky again
Its actually very poular
with the vaseline one you only need a small finger of vaseline for each glove and then you spread it our and then after pour water over it its super sticky
Me: mum can we have kerian brown
Me mum:no we have kerian brown at home
Kerian brown at home:
In my team we have a very small keeper but she is amazing I thing she wis 4foot7
That’s awesome! See you don’t have to be tall to be a great goalkeeper. There’s many professionals out there that aren’t very tall!
