Many footballers are driven to improve. They strive day in, day out, to get better. They sleep, eat and breathe football.  Football is on their brain 24 hours per day. However, noticeably many footballers spend a lot of time thinking about the technical and tactical side of the game.  They’ll spend countless hours refining their touch. Improving the passing, shooting or positioning.  The gym might also be a place they enjoy going to, pushing and strengthening their body.

Yet, their mental game often gets left to chance.  My advice in today’s episode is to be curious about your mental game and mindset.  By doing so, it can often, surprisingly, make a huge difference and elevate your performances and enjoyment to a new level.
