I have played football since I was five and for most of my career I have played midfield. For all the club teams I have played for I played midfield and also a free role behind the strikers, certainly my favorite position as in actuality I'm a natural playmaker. However, in my Senior year during high school my coach switched me back to sweeper and we won the State Championships playing defensive football. Playing sweep is pretty cool as I love controlling the entire team in front of me, however I still prefer playing in a free role.
This year in college I played defensive midfield, or as I call myself a deep-lying playmaker a la Pirlo.
