I've done no such thing. You have just failed to understand something very simple and clear. Thus, you are the one tied up in knots. And making thing more complicated than they are. Skills and talent are two very separate things. Things like passing, heading, shooting & tackling fro example are skills which anyone can be taught. While things like vision, positioning, dribbling & game reading for example, are talents which can't be taught. So its not hard to tell which is which. Or what falls where

Lumping attributes into one of two categories is ridiculously arbitrary.
You really think that anyone can master the skill of passing for example? It takes a certain degree of genetic ability to be able to develop the motor skills to routinely ping 60 yard passes around the pitch to a team mate. To suggest that anyone can
master such a skill is absurd.
Yet by claiming that game reading or positioning can't be improved at all you completely discount the possibility that someone can develop their perceptual and spatial awareness through study and practice.
