Advice from MLS veteran Khiry Shelton to young players

Hey guys! There is one thing I would like to harp  on and it's something, I would tell my younger   self this. Remain positive. I know it's easy to  get down on yourself, to beat yourself up when   you're competitive and you're playing, and you  wanna win and you want to do the best that you   can. Times are hard, you want to win all the time  but it's just not going to happen. But if you give   110% every day, and you push yourself every  day, you better yourself every day--even when   you don't wanna do it, that's a key piece to being  successful and wanting to achieve your level and   getting there. That would be my piece of advice  for my younger self. Going on to positions, I   played striker, I played on the wing both left and  right, I am currently playing right back. Right   back right now, I'm learning a lot. It's new to  me. But adaptability is huge. Being able to adapt   and play different positions and just be flexible.  I love this game and I enjoy it so much. I just   love it. I'm married to it. So being able to adapt  and learn on the fly and work day in and day out,   watching film, studying players, that's a huge  piece. For our wingers, it's creativity. And a lot   of it is playing a mental game with your opponent,  which would be the outside back. You know you   gotta play a mental game with them because they're  always going to press you, kick you, step to you,   things like that. So if you're creative and you're  able to get in the mind of your defender and   kinda be aware of what move he is going to make  against you, you'll have an advantage. And then   for my strikers, you know, I think it's keeping  it simple. Play 1 or 2 touch, laying it off,   laying the ball off, running in behind is key so  you can stretch the defense. Also, when you're   around the box, be selfish. Be very selfish and  go to goal, but share the ball as well. That's   an important piece. Bringing the players--the  wingers, the midfielders-- around you to combine   so you can open up an opportunity for yourself.  Alright guys, thank you for your time. Chau!
