Goalkeeper Mental Training | Keeping Goals - S3Ep7

[@hddhhsgs171]

I’m a 15 year old keeper currently playing at sporting Lisbon after being signed by them from Brighton It’s so tough for me as I had an unbreakable bond with my family and now I’m only seeing them 1-2 times per month Love watching the videos keep up the great work 👍💎

[@nascostoxo582]

Hddh Hsgs yup sure you play for them

[@hddhhsgs171]

nascosto xo not to bothered what you think mate to be honest

[@efcmd8646]

Keep your head up mate , it’ll all be worth it eventually

[@ConorOKeefe]

That really is tough mate. But keep working, and try to see them as much as you can. See if you can schedule in regular facetime calls too!

[@hddhhsgs171]

EFCMD thank you, hope so

[@danielmccamley3876]

Hey Con, just felt like letting you know that I have been following your training schedule and diet for a few months now and it has helped me become the starting keeper for the Australian 15’s futsal side and my state in soccer! I wake up every Sunday and can’t wait to watch your video. I’m so glad that I found the Keeping Goals union when I did and glad that I can say that I’m a part of the journey!

[@ConorOKeefe]

That's incredible Daniel, well done! I'm so glad that the videos have been helping you. It's great to have you as part of the KG Union too!

[@cameronkirkwood8069]

I’m convinced you’ll be professional, attitude is always to improve and move forward. It’s so hard to achieve that mindset ,which is something I struggle with. Having said that the word improve gets said in your videos so much right now I’m done with it 😂

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you Cameron, I really appreciate that mate. Hahaha sorry, I know it does, but I'll never apologise for that!

[@heist5637]

Genuine great advice. I enjoyed this weeks video.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Great, thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

[@jamesgartside6184]

Hello, Conor. I have been watching your stuff since 11K. Awesome videos and video! Love it! Keep up the good work!

Hey Conor, are you currently being paid professionally or semi professionally by europa point?

[@tali9506]

Happy birthday bro good luck with ur next game

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you mate!

[@ayske1]

Great reminder! I started a new 6as team with all randoms. I used everything from my futsal game and made a heap of saves but let in 6. Because of your videos I'm trying to focus on distribution... And recovery as you suggested! Still waiting for my foam roller to come in. Can't wait for the next vid!

[@ConorOKeefe]

That's brilliant, well done! Keep working and improving, and you'll see the level of your game go up in no time!

[@PupprrDemz]

Nice

[@MarcoAyr]

Thoroughly enjoying the series mate. In your spare time, if you've not already been, take Frankie to a little town in the mountains called Mijas, absolutely beautiful & a perfect place to chill out & get away from it all.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you Marc, that's a great suggestion, we'd love that. We'll go and check it out in the next few weeks, thank you!

[@MarcoAyr]

@@ConorOKeefe Magic mate. I'll be keeping up to date with your episodes mate & I wish you all the very best going forward. I play Futsal myself & am currently player/manager for a team playing in a league in Glasgow, Scotland. We have a Facebook page - Whitletts Victoria Futsal - & we're looking to start a KZbin channel with highlights of games etc, taking inspiration from yourself & others. Good luck! C'mon Europa Point!

[@randyvargas2901]

@@ConorOKeefe we lost 3-1 but mostly because of my defenders mistakes, how can i be a good goalie when my defenders are not helping

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you Elliott!

[@brandonbrown8797]

I’ve been in good form for my local club for this season so far but after one bad game I had about 3 weeks ago which We drew 3-3, apparently I was to blame for the one mistake I did. Which I held my hands up too and said it was my mistake. It’s so hard to be a goalkeeper at times and keep that mentality when people are putting the blame on you. it lowers my confidence so much when people blame me for making this mistake. I’m 23 and I still feel like I can progress as a keeper. Amazing video again mate! Keep up the good work👍🏼

[@ConorOKeefe]

Cheers Brandon. Of course, it's always frustrating when people get on your back about mistakes, but try and focus on improving and learning from them. Without mistakes we'd never get better. So dismiss it, and work hard to improve yourself

[@dilipchetri2268]

Very important one

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thanks mate!

[@fifaboy3514]

Absolutely love this series you have made me want to do a series on my channel to making it to my top league (I am in Australia btw) but my journey might take a while but I watch every episode on how to keep a good mindset and diet and fitness but keep up the good work bro hope you make it to the champions league soon

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you bro, I really appreciate that, and I'm really glad that you're enjoying it! Good luck with your stuff too!

[@fifaboy3514]

Conor O'Keefe thanks man

[@kenngk00]

Do you have any tips on how to improve on our weak side diving?

[@ConorOKeefe]

Practice Kenneth! Train a lot of repetitions on that side, and slowly it will get stronger

[@oliverchatterton7848]

Kenneth Gonzalez depends practice or if you don't feel comfortable or hesitate try diving on to a mat and build your confidence

Hi Connor, I was just wondering if we will see a full body gym workout for goalkeeper in the near future and also if you do when will it be released.

[@jonnyjjw]

Lol Lol check out season 2 of keeping goals we made two episodes for workouts for goalkeepers which you may find helpful! :)

[@clarissameek85]

Should you go the gym if you have had training the night before and you are going to have training/match the night after gym. Thanks and great video!

[@ConorOKeefe]

I don't normally train in the gym the night before a game. I will plan my week out in terms of training, and normally put my heavy gym training early at the beginning of the week. I'll also do lowers or uppers depending on what needs resting. Listen to your body, it will normally tell you what needs to be rested!

[@clarissameek85]

​@@ConorOKeefe If i have training Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and a match on Saturday and maybe one on Sunday as well, could i go to the gym as a 14 year old? Thanks

[@DiegoBello]

A suggestion: I couldn't tell which one was your team in the highlights.

[@ConorOKeefe]

Ahaha hopefully the one defending my goal!

[@markfreshwater2550]

Are goalkeepers not judged purely on clean sheets?? The big money signings like kepa at Chelsea for example played in a great athletico team but is not great

[@krishaangdeep5689]

Whoever does that is stupid... And kepa is probably one of the best keeper out there right now

[@krishaangdeep5689]

[@markfreshwater2550]

@@krishaangdeep5689 he is not in the top 5 keepers in our country right now in my opinion

[@J663B]

Unfortunately its very true, it's why Joe Hart was rated so highly when he had the best defense in the league protecting him at Man City and that now people see his level of play without that defense he is a 2nd goalkeeper/loaned out with option to recall if someone gets injured.

[@gribhead9780]

@@markfreshwater2550 hahaha u are judging him on the goals he is letting in haha hypocrite

[@harish9284]

Bro i want to be a pro like u can u give some tips on never quiting

[@ultimategoalkeeperzz5405]

Hey man don't quit. Never quit. If you quit you lose. Goalkeeping is a game of patience not only keeping the net clean but knowing when you need to make the right save. And also waiting for opportunities to come. Keep training and eating right and you'll get there

[@ConorOKeefe]

Thank you bro, just keep working to improve! That way you will never quit, because there will always be something that you can get better at!

What’s the equivalent level of the Gibraltar league in English league terms

[@rockerfarm6445]

i would say the best teams coul maybe play low level in EFL 1, but if u mean the whole league EFL 2 would be more likely some teams even NL just guessing though there is no real method to compare

[@ConorOKeefe]

It's hard to say, there is such a contrast in the league. Got some players who have played International/Champions League football, and some who are not at that level. So it's very difficult to compare to England really, there is a huge variety of quality

Just wondering at 24 your clearly a very talented keeper but has something gone wrong to prevent you already being picked up by a professional club

[@jadbarake5114]

Yeah he isn't that bad I can see him play in championship level one day

[@ConorOKeefe]

No, nothing has gone wrong Mark. I've already played for professional clubs previously, and I made the decision to study for a degree which obviously took some time too. Everyone's path is different, but I have no doubt that I'll make it where I want to be, as I'm improving my game every single day
