Master technique: Ball mastery part one

As England search for an answer to their technical deficiencies and the world marvels at Barcelona's fantasy football, FourFourTwo Performance teamed up with Coerver Coaching to design a set of drills aimed at improving ball mastery.

No matter how old you are or what level you play, it's never too late to improve your game and this drill will help you transform into the Sunday League Xavi (Or Danny Murphy, who was the Premier League's record passer last season, completing 2,330).
