Manchester United graduate and AFC Wimbledon goalkeeper Nathan Bishop opens up on the mental battles behind the gloves. Starting as a centre-back to breaking through at Southend and earning a move to United, Bish shares the highs, lows, and lessons of his career so far.

From an honest conversation with Erik ten Hag that shaped a career-defining decision, and the fallout from his infamous collision with Paul Mullin that went viral worldwide, we talk perfectionism, pressure, and imposter syndrome at one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Talking child psychologists and sandbag drills to learning from David de Gea and Tom Heaton, Nathan reveals how he’s shifted from self-doubt to acceptance and why he’s finally enjoying the game again.
