3 Football Myths a Player and a Coach Want Ending

What are the three biggest misconceptions in football? Our resident experts join forces to answer it: former professional player and analyst Enya Collins, and professional A-licence coach JJ (@THeFullCo). Three myths, all linked back to Tottenham Hotspur confidence mistaken for talent, the idea you can just move a player into a new position, and why injury recovery timelines are almost always wrong.

We cover the "mentality monster" myth, how coaches actually build confidence environments, why "just put Romero at six" doesn't work (and what coaches mean by "pictures"), Enya's own forced winger stints, Porro on the right wing, Son at wing-back, Bernardo Silva at left back, and the truth about Kulusevski's recovery — including the hidden two to three months of match fitness nobody counts after a player returns to training.
