Who are the players or what position of players that is considered a "striker/s"? Is there a position for that or everyone can be considered as a striker as long as they can score a goal?

I play soccer/football. It's simple: Strikers or forwards are the ones that are on the frontline of the team--usually, the lineup is consist of 2 or 3 strikers--and their job is get the ball however they can and dribble the ball into the opponents' field. The ultimate goal is to score.

Strikers only stay as a frontline of attack. They don't go back to their home half--unless it's a corner kick.

Every player can score goals--even the goalies--if they're in a situation to do so. But that job is for the strikers.

I think you should go to YouTube and look for a video explaining the rules of football/soccer sports it will be much easier.

I’m not saying it in a bad way btw.

i agree, i have played football/soccer for years and it took me a while to even fully understand the rules. i would recommend either playing the sport, watching people play, or watching someone describe all the positions so you can fully understand all parts of it. hopefully some of this helps

Most of the time, the striker is the center forward and the main goal scorer. The striker is usually surrounded by at least 2 other forwards or wingers from the width. I don’t know if this anime will call them all “strikers”. From my understanding, the center forward is only called the striker.

Generally strikers are the main goal scorers of a team. The lurk around the front of the goal and try to get into a position where they can be passed the ball and score. Other positions can also score but have defensive responsibilities. A basic football/soccer team formation looks like this.

(Opponents goal)

--------ST---ST----------

LW---CM---CM---RW

LB---CB-----CB---RB

-----------GK--------------

(Your own goal)

ST= Striker
LW= Left Winger
RW= Right Winger
CM= Central Midfielder
LB= Left Back
RB= Right Back
CB= Center Back
GK= Goalkeeper

Forwards are the ones that is considered as strikers. They are the main goal scorers in a team. But of course, other players can score a goal too but they are more on defense and helping the forwards(strikers) to score a goal.

I’m this situation it would be left mid and right mid, not left wing and right wing. If we’re talking formation-wise, wingers would always be in the same line as the attackers, but in this case it would be odd to have 2 strikers as well as wingers, cos usually it’s just one striker and a winger either side - so basically they’re LM and RM not LW and RW

Strikers are the front plays that have the main objective of scoreing, but any other player can acore as well as the defenders and goalkeeper. Also if you go on YouTube and watch some premier league highlights. Most teams, the strikers have to come back and defend because a lot of teams play a counter attack style game. I recommend checking some of Liverpools highlights as they are known for that style of play.
Any player can be anywhere on the field as long as it's not 'off side'. That means that the attacking teams player can't be behind the opposing teams last defender when the ball is being passed. As soon as the ball is kicked the attacking player can run behind the opposing teams last defender and it will only be the goalkeeper to beat. Besides that any player can be anywhere at any given time.
The middle players are usually more involved in play making but also score goals and defend. And the last players are defenders, they mainly stay back and defend but some defenders push up to play as an attacking player. The sport is quite free with where each played must be as many different formations and play styles can be used.

Here are some modern setups:

433 (false nine, my personal favourite. Wingbacks come up high while midfield connects the gap between wingbacks and wingers. CF drops down to support build up play, CDM anchors the defense in case posession is lost in midfield.

LW-CF-RW
CM-CDM-CM
LB-CB-CB-RB

5-4-1 (tries to overload wide areas with 4 wingers that go forward

ST
LW-CM-CM-RW
LWB-CB-CB-CB-RWB

4-2-3-1 (very widely used and balanced formation that balances offense (4 attackers + 2 wingbacks) and defense (4 defenders + 2 Wingbacks) with no inbetween.

ST
LW-CAM-RW
CDM-CDM
LB-CB-CB-RB

3-5-2 (formation that overloads the midfield in exchange for lower strength in wide areas)

ST-ST
LM-CM-CM-CM-RM
CB-CB-CB

4-1-4-1 (extremely offense minded formation that requires wingbacks to very carefully walk the line between attack and defense as loss of posession while wingbacks are on the opponents half could leave their 2 CBs alone on the counter. Most likely one back is instructed to move forward while the other should be more careful)

ST
LW-CAM-CAM-RW
CDM
LB-CB-CB-RB

There is a lot of ways teams can set up and there is a huge amount of depth to how formations, tactics and players interact together. I really hope this anime will be good lol




*A centre forward drops deeper to support his team whereas a striker would usually stand high and wait for service
*(Attacking or defensive midfielders. Usually only applies to formations with an uneven number of midfielders making the centrepiece either an anchor (defensive midfielder) or a second striker (attacking midfielder)
*Wingbacks could be positioned wider in formations where 3 CBs are used

The most popular formation, used by the 2 best teams in the world right now, Man City and Liverpool, is 433:

LW-CF-RW
MF-DMF-MF
LB-CB-CB-RB

In both teams, the CF position actually is not filled by a "striker"/forward, but a midfielder, in this case Foden/Firminho. We called them false 9, because they often drop to midfield to link up play. The real "striker" who score many goasl for both team are actually placed in that LW/RW position now.
