Cesc Fabregas is a student of his past experiences as much or more so than being a student of the game… I paraphrase… “When I reflect back, we won in this particular way…but then we also won in the complete opposite way. There’s no one way to coach” Tapping into his memory, he reflects on the lessons of being coached and led by Arsene Wenger, Jose Mourinho, Pep Guardiola, Vicente Del Bosque, Antonio Conte, and at La Masia, the Barcelona Academy… …a veritable who’s who of soccer coaching and lead

The video below shows a coach regarded as one of the greatest of all time, talking about how he re-defining success… …in 1934! Extraordinary… And even more extraordinary was that the very great John Wooden did this because he disliked the attitude parents of pupils in his English class had around success. Those parents tended to view success for their children (and their children’s teacher) from the perspective of outcomes…If an A or B hadn’t been attained then it wasn’t good enough. And Wooden

Below is perhaps one of the most insightful clips I’ve watched related to the psychology of adult elite sport (the professional level of sport). Tucked away…silently…in a BBC interview quite some years ago. A small section of an interview with Roy Keane, one of the Premier League’s greatest players… “It’s an act. Of course I had self-doubts, but I kept an act up. The skinhead. A few sendings off. I fear nothing. Some sort of machine. Which is nonsense. You act, don’t you!” Roy Keane was a great

Psychology-in-action… Declan Rice scanning and searching… Scanning and searching for cues that inform his best next action. These actions will be linked with principles of play - width, delay, penetration, movement, space, support… Why do I say this is psychology-in-action? Because this clip is all about meaning and understanding. Intuitively or learned, Declan Rice has an understanding that his sport…football…is a team invasion sport and so is about actions related to principles. And so he has

“Growth is a lifelong thing” Pittsburgh Steelers’ Mike Tomlin isn’t resistant to change. He’s made that choice. The head coach knows that he has old school Values and methods, but also knows he needs to adapt his natural tendencies in order to lead his players. This requires effort and is metabolically tiring. To have to think about your thinking. To have to think about your behaviours. To have to think about what you’re saying and what processes you have in place. Meta-skills… If leadership is
