Midfielders play an essential role in dictating and controlling the tempos of matches through attacking and defensive efforts.  The versatility to be effective while in possession or out of possession anywhere on the pitch, and mastery of almost every aspect of the game is a requirement of modern midfielders.  This camp provides both a general overview of the role, as well as all the details requisite to the role.  Learn how to dribble like Zidane, defend like Kante, pass like De Bruyne, and shoot like Xabi Alonso!
