An attacking midfielder is one of the key positions in modern football. They connect midfield to the attack. They have a core responsibility of creating goal scoring opportunities and scoring some themselves too. What are the key attributes of an attacking midfielder? What football ability should a attacking midfielder have?

An attacking midfielder must have great vision to give through balls on the run to the strikers and the wingers. A good attacking midfielder must be able to shoot the ball excellently. And he must have such great passing accuracy to control the game.

Attacking midfielder should have the vision, creativity and passion, especially he should be able to sight the teammates in scoring positions, so he can distribute the ball to them at the appropriate time. He should also possess dribbling skill too.

An attacking midfielder must have the vision to see every part of the pitch with just his two eyes. He must literally have eyes in the back and the side because their primary role is to create goalscoring opportunities.

His creativity level should be high. Just take a look at Kevin De Brunye and the rest doing great things for the club that they play for.

A attacking midfielder must also be adventurous. They must have the courage to try that odd through pass. That they must do without costing their teams possession too many times. I think that is what KDB does.

If you're not good in playing box to box, it's going to be very difficult to succeed as an attacking midfielder because it means moving up front and helping out the strikers in also scoring goals. High cardio is a very needed quality for an attacking midfielder.
