I've had a couple of players who get very frustrated and down on themselves when they miss chances. One thing that helped is I searched up a youtube video of Messi missing chances and asked their parents to show them the video. If the GOAT can miss a shot then we can all do it! - then I remind them that "even Messi misses" and it's developed into a bit of an emotional reset for them. 

I've also asked players when subs to watch the game and count something that we've been working on in training (passes / tackles). So they become a mini-analyst for the quarter. So you could ask him to count the shots and goals of other players on your team and the other team to demonstrate the shots to goals ratio. The idea being that they "discover" for themselves that most shots don't score.
