Description

In this episode I'm joined by former England U21 and Barnet FC Goalkeeper Scott Loach. Loachy is one of the most professional and experienced goalkeepers in the game and is a great mentor for the young goalkeepers he works with at Barnet. He shares his mindset secrets which have allowed him to become one of the most consistent goalkeepers I have worked with.

We discuss:

• Learning from Ben Foster on how to approach the game
• The importance of doing your job and keeping things simple
• Having a bulletproof process and sticking to it
• How to approach training when being a number 2
• Building relationships with managers
• How social media and pundits are creating unrealistic performance expectations for goalkeepers
• How his relationship with former GK coach Shaun Griffiths helped him maintain his form and identify
• How to block out the criticism and focus on yourself
• Being a pro and being a dad/husband

Massive knowledge bombs, personal stories and invaluable advice from a goalkeeper who's been there and done it.

Get your notepad and pen out because this episode is invaluable.
