Tackling is no different to shooting, heading, dribbling etc. it's a skill that you need to work on constantly and from an early age. Timing, body position speed, power there are loads of facets to tackling and even some truly great players never master it! Just look at Paul Scholes!!

He couldn't tackle a fish supper!
