2:20 She’s too cute bro 😂❤

Scarlett is so adorable has the seldon genes pretty funny 😂😍

Despite the poor season in terms of wins, I really hope you return to Hartford Athletic for the next season. We really enjoyed having you at the club. Also, despite underperforming, you brought a lot of intangibles to the team when you played. I watched you play against Pittsburgh Riverhounds with some of my family and we absolutely loved it. You guys fought on till the end. You brought the energy and you, Matt, scored a goal to help bring the team back. You are a true professional and you give it your all and play smart!

Love these videos Matt, very educational and good. Keep up the good work, hopefully we can enjoy you for many more years to come

I understand how you feel Matt. My last season in Latvia I felt like I had underperformed, I was playing out of position and had a few injuries. But either way I didn’t score as many goals or have as many assists as I wanted. But the important thing is to keep training and soldiering on. Regardless of your position you show your dedication and talent. So keep fighting you got this 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Always appreciate your honesty. My son and I watch your videos, so you being perfectly realistic is great for your players. Thank you.

Don’t beat yourself up too much Matt U got this bro ❤

You give me a lot of inspiration. Thank you. Love your videos

Hi Matt, once again, just wanna say thank you for all you share with your videos. Always inspire me a lot. I even feel like I cannot live a minimal, efficient routine-based life without watching your videos regularly. That’s why I am watching your videos back from the start of the channel. Still find them so good even when the image quality cannot match these days videos. Matt, please keep up your good work, not only in football, in training, but in life in general. So grateful to you.

Having pretty thought season myself too,playing U20 in the first division of the state in iran 🇮🇷 Personally played 12 out of 13 as a Cb and one game I was suspended 9 games remaining and the difference to 1st spot is 7 points. And we had a bad start for the second half of the season with 2 draw Hopefully we can get them...

Saw you on a commercial while watching peacock, good job 👍

I always enjoy your videos. I wouldn’t mind seeing you in Purple next year!

My son is starting to advance in football here in Switzerland. I love the way you set goals and give yourself a hard appraisal. I show my son your vlogs to help him. Truly exemplary. Once you retire, you should become a trainer. I would 100% sign up my kids with you once the time for this has arrived. You would definitely make the paper $$...

Thanks for the time stamps

I don't know if you'll see this, but I'm a relatively new subscriber to the channel and it's inspired me to be the best footballer I can be. I'm really grateful for all of the work you put into this channel and I have some thoughts about your 2023 season in review that I'd like to share. As a general structure, I will share some key thoughts and add a couple of details/questions/suggestions: 1. Don't be too hard on yourself. This year was a new team for you and brought major life changes (hello Scarlett!) which required some adjustment this year. Soccer as a sport is pretty random and you could've played the exact same season and gotten very different stats due to factors outside of your control (teammates putting away your created, some shots taking a fortunate deflection, etc). It's also worth mentioning here that your team objectively -by most goals conceded and lowest point total- performed lowest in the league this year, so relative to where your team performed, you performed quite well, even if your numbers were slightly below your targets. To summarize, I think to title a video "I Underperformed..." is an oversimplification and not something I would want a potential coach/team to associate with you. 2. New goals You pride yourself on your versatility but I don't see that listed among your goals. Playing seven different positions over a career is really impressive, but you did that IN A SEASON. Maybe that's too many, maybe it's not enough. I hear that you want to play striker and play more as a right back. It doesn't matter which one you pick, but versatility can be incorporated into your season goals. e.g. I want to play six positions next year, including two games as a striker. You don't get to decide where you play but you can work on your finishing and shooting; show your team you can score if you want to play there... OR e.g. I want to play eight different positions next year and I want at least half of my games to be at right back. Up to you. If you add versatility to your season-goals, you can even add position-based goals: e.g. I want to keep a clean sheet in at least half of the games I play at right back or in defense. If you've read this far, thanks again for all of the hard work and the inspiration. Good luck next year!

I love to see this type of analysis....I wish I would have had the self awareness to do this when I was younger and playing. I was also the utility player on many of my teams. In club I mainly played CM, in high school it was a lot of Sweeper, but at various stages it was striker, left mid and left defense (even through I'm right footed). I think being that versatile also comes with a great grasp of the game that you know the roles and responsibilities of so many positions that it enables you to be effective in any situation and help the team.

This video came exactly the day my season end too))

Had a pretty tough season myself also, my first semi-pro season and got relegated. Didn’t play anywhere near as much as I would have liked to but got 2 assists as a rb having played around 400 mins so we take it and move on.

Its crazy that matt had to play most of his season at left back.

We have the same frig, do you have issues with the ice maker too?

How is it to live in the off season in a economic perspetive, salarywise do you get money in the off season, or have you just saved up during the season.

at your best we are with you and at your worst we are more with you.........keep going brother.

Try to keep your head up Matt.

EVERY SINGLE TIME IM LOW, YOU FIND THE SOLUTION!!! That’s crazy 😂

All the luck bro

i love the kitchen design

great video

Honestly I wanna know how you deal or if you do at all with having had a bad season individually and as a team and your last team made it all the way to the playoffs final… is something you think about? Thanks!

Im a cm but matts vids help build my football iq, i love your vids keep up the great work.

Did you get a chance to go back and finish the college? Just interested. Sorry not trying to be nosy here.

Honestly, regardless of how you felt, it’s still just really cool to see a game that I play just at a professional level.

Hi matt! awesome video as always. i was wondering if you could tell the reasons why you underperformed, if they were physical,mental etc.. to help me understand. i'm italian and i follow you since 2015! much love to you scarlett and mimi!

Hi Matt, I wish you all the best for next season! One question tough: why do you consider your stint in Germany as part of your professional career? In Germany, professional football starts in the third league, you were playing in the sixth if I am not mistaken.

coming to portland for the offseason???

you don't need stats you can be like michel salgado (real madrid), a team player, cheering everyone

Your coffee art looks more like Italy and the ball being Scilly

You have the most adorable daughter omg 😭

Hi matt great video, I'm an Attacker (9) playing in the 3rd division of the Nigerian league. I have one question, does having s*x or mast*rbating impede performance and are there rules from the club against that? Please i need your response please

You are such a great dad dude!! Plus I have a feeling you'll have a better season and personal stats next year!!

Come back to Tulsa Matt!

Why do you think that year after year you’ve been on loosing teams? Previous teams not having the best record which caries onto the next season or just pure bad luck? Would like to hear your thoughts ?

Cromwell? Rocky Hill??

let´s gooo

hi Matt, just wondering, which German league did you play in?

You underperfom sometime, then u overperform, I guess that's how it is in games that require a lot of skill and physical preparation, let's hope next season will be big from you

we missed the offseason series. can you make a video about conditioning?

I hope Hartford Athletic can improve next year😢

btw. what's the point in lower leagues in USA to compete as a team? You cannot win as a team and go to MLS, even if you win the league. There is no incentive to get better if you are the last team, you cannot be relegated, right? What's the point? (btw. the point of my Sunday league is just to play with mates, but we are amateurs).

for how long were a pro?

Bro can I get your sign jersey please.

Not all about stats though!

11:46 wtf.. is this a pro team and rotated you like this? I played a second forward, a 10, winger both sides and that's it but these positions are kinda related, how you played from left back o right back to attacking midfielder haha

haha who taught you slang 'drippy' XD

Time to call it a day old man

24, probably starting to play football now, seems like a fun game. Gonna become a pro within 3 years so I can still play and make money for a few years before having to retire. Wish me luck :P

Back to back seasons on the worst team in the league. Are you choosing the wrong offer or set up? Or is it just coincidence.

so much plastic mate :D

How is he playing in the usl smh 🤦🏻‍♂️
