This helped me so much bc in my team I always used to believe I was a winger but when my coach put Me out of my comfort zone as a number 10 I loved the role (and got more goals) however I was so confused whether I wanted to be a CAM or a winger! Now thanks to this video I am happier with my decision as embracing playing as a 10 and I understand the game so much more

Of course there's no set laws for where you can and can't go, but for kids learning the game, it's probably a good idea to tell them defenders shouldn't cross midfield. Midfielders, on the other hand, should be able to run anywhere on the field. And then Forwards should stay in the attacking half of the field
