Why Clubs Still Get Psychology Wrong (Dan Abrahams)

Most clubs agree psychology matters. The real challenge is how it’s actually delivered. In this episode of the Modern Soccer Coach Podcast, Gary Curneen sits down in person with sports psychologist Dan Abrahams, alongside coach and coach developer Kevin Leahy, to explore how football clubs can embed psychology into daily coaching — rather than treating it as a one-off workshop or classroom add-on. The conversation goes beyond wellbeing talks and mental health check-ins to focus on the missing piece in most environments: performance psychology. Dan breaks down why psychology is already influencing every technical and tactical action in the game, and why coaches — whether they realize it or not — are central to its delivery. Key topics discussed include: Why clubs value psychology but struggle to scale it The difference between performance psychology, wellbeing, and mental health How psychology can live on the training ground, not in PowerPoint slides Supporting coaches under pressure, not just “fixing players” Using small moments in training (2–5 minutes) to build self-regulation and decision-making Helping players deal with confidence dips, failure, and external noise This is a practical, leadership-driven discussion for coaches, directors, and club leaders who want better decision-makers, more adaptable players, and environments that actually support development. If you’re responsible for coaches, players, or a football program — this one is worth your time. #ModernSoccerCoach #SoccerCoaching #FootballCoaching #CoachDevelopment #PlayerDevelopment #YouthSoccer #FootballPsychology #SportsPsychology #PerformancePsychology #MentalSkills #GameModel #TrainingDesign #LearningEnvironment #DecisionMaking #CoachLeadership #ClubDevelopment #HighPerformance #EliteDevelopment #SoccerEducation #FootballEducation #TransitionPlay #PlayerPathway #CoachingTools #DevelopThePlayer #SoccerMindset #CoachSupport #FootballCulture #LongTermDevelopment #ModernCoaching #garycurneen #danabrahams #youtubepodcast #youtubechannel #soccercoach
