He was able to play in any of the back 3 positions comfortably as well as holding midfield. Passing - Work on cleaning up your shorter passes. Firm on the ground leading them the direction they want. Also work on longer range passing to be able to play diagonals and balls to front men.

You can help yourself and others around you by positioning players with communication. Endurance - While you seemed like you are fit.
