The Lab (Tottenham Hotspur Podcast)

S3E47 | Inside the Psychology of Tottenham’s Relegation Fight

April 17, 2026·55 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

We’re joined by sport psychologist Dan Abrahams to talk about why Spurs so often look tense, hesitant and disconnected when the pressure ramps up. Using ideas from his new book Compete, we get into high performance mindset, why players hide, how leadership loss affects a dressing room, and whether constant upheaval at the club has created confusion on the pitch. We also chat about Romero as captain, the impact of fan pressure, and why culture, structure and messaging matter just as much as tactics. Learn more about your ad choices.
