In the final episode of The World Cup Psychology Show, Professor Geir Jordet and Tim Harkness, Chelsea’s former head of Sport Science & Psychology, join the show to discuss how World Cup trends - from in-game breaks to squandered ‘stutter kicks’ - might influence domestic and international football over the next 12 months.

We dissect the fallout from Eng…

Three ways to take sport psychology from textbook to the training pitch (with Professor Adam Nicholls)

Wednesday, July 22, 2026 • Duration 10:53

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit themindroom.substack.com

How do you actually take sport psychology from the confines of the classroom to the pressure cooker of being pitchside? For some, the subject is still something shrouded in mystery (or treated as a purely office-based practice, to the point where one recent job ad was promoted with a picture of an empty desk and chair).

But we’ve seen how concepts from …

The World Cup Psychology Show: why Tuchel's comments show England's 'psychologically safe' environment and how to mentally prepare for meeting Messi

Sunday, July 12, 2026 • Duration 56:03

In the latest episode of The World Cup Psychology Show, Tim Harkness, Chelsea’s former head of Sport Science & Psychology, who worked with Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge, and David Wheeler, one of the only former pro footballers turned psychologists working in the game, join me to look back at England’s win against Norway - and preview the semi-final against Argentina.

We explain why Thomas Tuchel’s post-match comments are perhaps a sign of the ‘psychologically safe’ environment England seem to have created, how to turn Leo Messi’s threat into an opportunity that can be exploited and what confidence actually gives elite athletes on the field of play.

The World Cup Psychology Show: England vs Mexico - Saka's focus, Pickford's emotional regulation and why being 'under the cosh' can create collective flow

Tuesday, July 7, 2026 • Duration 55:44

In the latest episode of The World Cup Psychology Show, Tim Harkness, Chelsea’s former head of Sport Science & Psychology, who worked with Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge, and David Wheeler, one of the only former pro footballers turned psychologists working in the game, join me to look back at England’s win against Mexico.

We examine the unerring focus Tuchel’s displayed in the Azteca couldron, why Jordan Pickford’s on-pitch personality was tailor-made for this type of match and why defending for your lives might actually be one of the tactical setups most conducive to creating a collective flow state.

Four billion tigers. That’s the metaphorical audience some of Italy greatest players described facing in the final of the last World Cup on American soil.

In 1994, it was too much for the likes of Roberto Baggio, Franco Baresi and Roberto Donadoni. Baggio’s skied shootout penalty, which ended Italy’s hopes of winning the tournament, was arguably as much …

The World Cup Psychology Show: England vs DR Congo - dealing with shock, managing danger and preparing to play at high-altitude

Thursday, July 2, 2026 • Duration 50:02

In the latest episode of The World Cup Psychology Show, Tim Harkness, Chelsea’s former head of Sport Science & Psychology, who worked with Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge, and David Wheeler, one of the only former pro footballers turned psychologists working in the game, join me to look back at England’s win against DR Congo.

We delve into how England dealt with the shock of conceeding an early goal, why recognising the difference between fear and danger is so cruical to playing under pressure and how Tuchel’s side might adapt their approach to deal with the physiological and psychological challenges of playing a last-16 match 7,200ft above sea level.

In a world where you can’t seem to go a second without another datapoint passing through your inbox or IMs, the inability to incorporate psychology within performance analysis remains something of a mystery.

The technology to monitor on-field behaviour exists. Champions Leagues sides have shown that analysing gestures such as arm movements can credibly …

We consider how Tuchel, his squad and backroom staff will react to the result, analyse the pysche behind Ghana’s rearguard action and examine the challenge-focused psychological framing pivotal to England’s potential progress in the tournament.
