Troy Deeney: Respect, relegation and seeing people crumble
“I’ve never once tried to make an excuse for any of my behaviours in the past. The hardest part is owning who you actually are.” This week on Captains Sam is joined by Troy Deeney. The Birmingham City captain opens up about his tough upbringing and discusses how those early life-changing experiences - including a prison sentence - helped shaped his leadership style later in his career. Having captained teams involved in both promotions and relegations, Troy talks about the motivation needed when leading during difficult periods, as well as the importance of showing respect and being responsible for your own actions.
