Sam's Army show

Summary: <p>Sam, Mike Magee and Dax McCarty discuss this week's hot topics, including: best/worst Champions League matchups, FIFA Club World Cup and US Soccer's POYs. Sam then sits down with Watford's Troy Deeney [starts at 29:00] to discuss his incredible career, which has run the gamut from talented but troubled youth impressing scouts while nursing a hangover to eventually finding himself in jail, yet less than a year later scoring the UK's goal of the decade in the Championship playoff semifinal and going onto establish himself as a top striker in the Premiership. We also discuss which of his teammates is most obsessed with social media, where he ranks Messi vs Ronaldo vs Pulisic, if MLS is in his future and whether England or the US will win more World Cups in our lifetime. Finally, Sam and Dax [starts at 01:18:01] offer previews and predictions for the must-watch games this weekend, starting with Arsenal/Everton (under new coaches), Man City/Lester and Tottenham/Chelsea, plus what's what in the rest of Europe.</p>
