Summary

Graeme Souness and Troy Deeney were captains throughout the majority of their careers and Simon once sat in the ultimate leadership position, as owner of Crystal Palace FC.

In this week’s episode our panel sat down to discuss leadership in modern football, analysing the traits that the best captains and managers exhibit whilst looking at England’s footballing future as we head into the post-Southgate era.
