Can't imagine how tough it is to be a pro athlete and a parent to a new born at the same time. It must be so hard to leave Scarlett and Mimi but your work ethic sets a great example for your daughter to grow up around! And props to Mimi for being so strong and supportive!
It’s about as difficult as every other grown person who has a job and a child. I can’t imagine why any of you think Matt is any different
@@kennethlawrence5941 Most people don't travel for work the way Matt does. Most people gone 40 - 50 hours a week for work and come home at night and have weekends off. Matt is going to be gone for 10 days for this trip and a few days at a time regularly during the season too.
@@1310beth 100% correct, football is not your regular 9-5 job. Constantly spending time with the team, away weekends etc. Different lifestyle to most for sure.
@@kennethlawrence5941He had to move out of state with a new born. That’s very uncommon and a very tiring and stressful situation.
@@btn1 not at all uncommon but yes tiring and stressful. think military moms and dads who do it all the time. Better examples. he is s journeyman fullback that has had a decent career but produces excellent content for his vieweres
There he is!!! Papa Sheldon. Look at him in that spiffy Hartford Athletic jumper.
Looks good on you bro. Welcome to Hartford Athletic and Connecticut, the home the UConn Huskies and great basketball.
Now that you are here, we can become great at soccer.
I hope you, Barrera and the other veterans can get down to business and show the other guys how to train and win!
God bless you and your adorable little family!
Nice to see you’re getting settled in with the new team
Antoine Hoppenot was one our best players at DCFC last season. I was bummed he left for Hartford, but it’s cool I’ll still get to see him in the videos this season!!
Debatable he was our best player. He will def be missed tho. Wonder if it was a money issue
That looks like the facilities owned and used by Oakwood Soccer Club. It’s amazing that you get to train on those very nice fields during your preseason! I have refereed youth academy games there as a matter of fact.
LETSS GO MATT your gonna kill it this Season 💯
Congrats, Matt! Looking forward to following the upcoming USL season for the first time as a newb football fan.
Love you bro❤🙌🏽 I wish you, Mimi and Scarlett all the best!
Matt congrats bro. I hope this season goes amazing and also congrats on your new addition to your family!!!
Love to see you back men hopefully everything went well❤
I love matt's consistency and discipline, such a motivation bruh. Much loe from 🇵🇷 ❤
Congrats yall!! Youre probably here in FLA now, and yep! It's warm this week!! At least it is here in Jacksonville. Initial impressions of Tab??? So stoked for you three this season !!! 💥💥💥
Nice one Matt. Very good to see
Hartford is my "local" team, living in Eastern, CT. Awesome to see you up here, looking forward more than ever to watch some Athletics games this upcoming season!
Love it bro 🤝
Enjoyed the video indeed 👏🏿
This is really cool. I've been following your channel since 2017 and Hartford Athletic is my local team. I was so shocked when I saw you sign. Might have to come out to some games now!
Glad you found a team and the baby is doing great! Happy for you dude 🤝
Well done Sheldon. Cheers to a new chapter and more to come.
Great video !
Thx you’re the best
Support from France
Congrats Brodie 🎉🎉🎉
Love seeing the first vlog in HA colors! Excited to have you on board Matt, and seeing all the club legends alongside you's got me excited for the season (I'm one of the capos)
Tulu does indeed have that rizz 😆
That's nuts you're in Hartford! I'm about 15 minutes south in Middletown and have been following the channel for a couple years.. Small ass world. Good luck this season. I'll make an awkward Shelly sign and chirp you from the rail when it gets warmer out. And tab Ramos as the new manager too. Best of luck this yr
Good luck Matt!
Good stuff Matt! All the best to the missus and the little one!
With your resume man and your age your jump to the MLS needs to happen now! You’re a total professional idk what else you lack. There’s honestly some homegrown players that just don’t have it
The hard truth is that those homegrown players know somebody or have connections
Sheldon doesn't, football is a pay to play sport in the US and many parts of the world sadly
@@roostguardian totally agree I was watching the sounder vrs Colorado, and I was thinking Imagine if they would got players from Spain that haven't gone pro yet. The league would be much better.
It also shows how tough it is and that it comes down to luck. But the OG’s know the set backs Matt gone through, a lot would have quit.
Yes Matt love it
Good work🎉!! Keep it up!!! You’re a beast!
Really miss your videos on UA-cam. When this is notified, I was surprised to learn that you joined Hartford. Thru this vid (u can film a lot inside training, that's great), I think this is a great team and things look promising.
I'm planning for marriage next year, also thinking about babies. Watching you through the time in New Zealand, back to US, season after season, become a husband then a father really motivated me live my life better, in any stage. I commented like this maybe hundreds of times, but I'm so grateful for you. You are the best Matt.
Let's go on to another season together. Always have your back.
Greeting from Vietnam 🇻🇳
From a father of two here (one is already 15 and the other is 12........yeah, you have no idea how fast they grow) you're in your way to be a TERRIFIC dad my man!! Also......can't wait to watch you play in this season dude, best of luck to U and the team!!
yes matt lets go
Tulu is back 😂😂 the OGs remember
Welcome to Hartford! Looking forward to seeing you play here
Congrats on ur new club. There's the Rhode Island expansion team just up i95 coming online next year if u don't get renewed.
Such a humble guy. God Bless You my man.
Congrats on setting in at Hartford. I would love to see your head coach Tab Ramos on the podcast.
yess pls, it would be really interesting to look at the pro game from a coach's perspective.
Matt the 🐐!
Looking sharp Matt! 🔥🔥 lookin good
We love you MATT
Welcome to the NorthEast! You're very lucky thus far. This has been one of the warmest winters on record. We've literally have had zero snowfall so far in the NYC area as far north as Westchester. Growing up playing competitive travel/youth soccer then HS and college (st john's u), we almost never were outdoors in February. Really not until early April at best. Enjoy it.
Been watching you for quite some time man, awesome to see you playing in my home city of Hartford CT! Looking forward to catching a few games and maybe meeting you as well 💪🏼
Best wishes matt!
Matt is back!!!
No way he plays in Hartford now. I went to one if they showcases! Crazy how he close to me now I’ve been watching him for a while
As a CT resident myself I recommend Blue Back Square in West Hartford for a nice time out with the wife and some great food. Keep up the tough preseason training. Look forward to watching you play 💪
Wishing you all the best!
I love Oakwood's new fields, super comfortable to play on and just a nice location. Love seeing you in New England and hope to watch one of your games soon !
finally back!
it's awesome seeing the dad life along with the soccer hahah yall are crushing it !!
hey matt, get ready for the baby to take over the tv soon! congrats and thanks for the great content
keep filming those training sessions like that please!!
Bro haven’t watched your videos in like a while, and I see a lil baby I’m like, “Ayo what”
Excited to see what you bring to the Hartford community not just on the pitch!
Love you
Yeah its cold/freezing now. Wait till summer when it's so damn humid.
New England can be a land of extremes with regard to weather, but Spring and Autumn are beautiful.
Who recorded the training session, that's awesome 🔥
Definitely have to catch a home game. Just a trip across the sound.
Congratulations dad welcome to the club happy for you guys blessings to your beautiful gorgeous family
Can't wait to see you play Matt living in CT and not too far from the stadium!!!
Same. I told him on here a few years ago to come play for us. The weather isn't great, but our fandom is!
Happy ur at my local club 🎉
Can't wait to watch your games at Dilon
Hey Matt! Have you tried the new Mizuno Alpha boots? Really great shoe honestly! The fit reminds me a lot of a more advance Vapor 11
Matt new boots😂
Ive been playing pickup with joel in jersey for over a year. Love seeing him succeed and in the vid
Brooo Joel is a beast I’ve been following his journey for so long I’m so happy for him
Oh wow, you are not too far from me in NYC. Have you tried a Ted's Steam cheese burgers yet? Maybe if I am up there this season, I will run into you in a Chipotle.
Holy moly! A childhood teammate of mine is your teammate! I'll definitely go to one of the matches :)
Going to need anothe AG FG boot video. Difference in turf quality etc. how the turf? How all fields don’t go this way idk 🤷♂️
I never thought the goat Matt Sheldon would be training at my old academy club field 🐐
Perfect
Best of luck to you Matt! God bless you and your family!
Seems like a good place for you bro
Never thought I would see my boy Connor in a Become Elite video. Lol
Kyle is my fellow country man great to see him make it.
Good luck in Hartford. How does the bad sleeping affect your fitness and performers?
This is my dream life! (Somehow arround your life)
WIll be a great experience, very cool you get to play under Tab Ramos?
that number is so cool! #16
gotta love how scarlet is in every scene now
“You are gonna miss 1/4th of her life!” 🤣🤣🤣
By the way, you guys are doing great. When our kids were little, the house was a mess a lot!
how long does Matt plan on staying in CT? seems like he’s going to be there for a while 😅
And again, they set you up with nice comfy accomodations. Or did you have to find this yourself?
Wonder if Matt will be lining up at centerback or right back…or maybe as a holding midfielder?
bro that house is genuinely that haunted house that comes in movies xD
Hey matt i have a youtube channel by the name of elcompaadi where do you get your background music its great like the one in this video
Now I get why people like vlog videos so much
Tulu n matt reunited

Welcome to CT
Hey matt all of us i think we need a 2023 yoga stretching for footballer mate
Amazing video
Do you watch pursuit of wonder?
It would be a dream to get pinned! You are really inspirational Matt!!! Good luck for the rest of the season.
Why would he pin this and why is it your dream to get pinned? 💀 seeking online validation is craaaazy
@@ImTheEnderGamer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
