In this Episode I'm re-joined on the podcast by Chesterfield goalkeeper Scott Loach. Loachy moved to Chesterfield at the beginning of the 2021/22 season after being put on furlough by Barnet towards the end of the Pandemic. Since leaving, he has arguably had one of the most eventful years in his career as a goalkeeper; being called up to the England C squad and facing Chelsea at Stanford Bridge. We reflect on the past year and uncover the secrets to converting weaknesses into superpowers. We discuss:
The mental battles of being away from football for prolonged periods of time
Compartmentalising life on and off the pitch and giving full commitment
How to overcome the fear of failure and mistakes
The importance of building working relationships in the world of football
How train your mindset through learning from your past experiences
How to approach playing against the European Champions
The differences between premier league and national league goalkeepers
Flat whites and biscuits
Advice to young goalkeepers about the steps they need to take to forge a successful career in the game
The benefits of senior football vs playing U23s for development
Mindset books to help you become a high-performer.
This episode is packed full of knowledge and advice for keepers looking to progress and advance in the game. Loachy has so much experience to share and I can honestly say that some of the advice in this episode is second to none.
To keep up-to-date with Loachy, you can follow him on:
