Soccer is a game that requires a lot of knowledge and field experience to be a successful player. However, in addition to knowing the game and making the right decisions with the ball, a player must also be physically fit in order to be most productive. Soccer is fast-paced and demands a great deal of running. The players are constantly moving in all directions: forwards, backwards and laterally. Combining this physical knowledge with the knowledge of the different positions, there can be hypotheses drawn about what makes a player great at their position and why a specific type of physique plays a certain position, which will be discussed later.
